Ever heard of comet McNaught? I wouldn’t have, if I didn’t read space news online. It’s the brightest comet in decades, surpassing Venus and in some places being visible in broad daylight.
Gorgeous, isn’t it? The Astronomy Picture Of The Day folk have done a great job posting pictures. There are some links below.
