Date: 08/05/2020

In today's image, we seen image of Comet SWAN which is currently visible in the sky. The comet has now reached a brightness where it can just been seen with the unaided eye from a dark site. It should continue to brighten as it gets closer to the Earth this coming week and to the Sun later this month. There is no danger that this will strike the Earth. At its closest it will still be many tens of millions of miles away from us.
