I got it. I was afraid I would have to stick around another 80,000 years to see it. 😳

My dear Facebook addicted father told me that the comet was three times the size of Earth. I fact checked that because it didn't sound right and it's more just 3 kilometers (a more comet size for a comet).
But now I'm extremely curious- what WOULD happen if a ball of ice and rock three times the size of Earth on a highly erratic orbit passed into our general vicinity as visible comets do? Whether distant enough to appear the same size as the comet head in our sky or literally occupying the exact same point in space the comet at its brightest was (which I can only assume would be Very Bad for Earth)

Finally saw the comet tonight! It was hard to see because of how BRIGHT the full moon is - so I'll probably try and look for it again Saturday
☄️🌕

I was sad I’m not sure if I saw the comet tonight (I think I was accidentally looking at Venus when I took the picture) (astronomy is not my strong suit currently). And I was sad because it’s something so few people get to see, and I’m someone that might miss out on it if I don’t end up seeing it later this week since tonight was my best chance to see it.
But you know what else I saw tonight? A cat on my walk. And even fewer people have seen that specific cat than have seen that comet. Both things are wonders of our universe, and I’m glad to see either one
