In midst of all the strife we've been facing - wanted to pass along that we have an interstellar visitor arriving soon.
Sometime soon, in Late April onto May this object will pass close to the Sun - 0.25AU and Astronomers are noticing it's brightness curve is rapidly approaching visible to the Naked Eye sometime in April.
To find it, locate Ursa Major - or better it's ASTERISM the Big Dipper...
Locate the upper outside lip of the ladle - and rear lower star of inside the pan of the ladle,
This provides pointers to locate the "fuzzy dim" dot ATLAS discovered or C2019 Y4.
You need Calm Clear skies, some time to dark adapt your eyes, and a good pair of Binoculars to find it
- but Scientists are saying if it stays intact it may be visible even in Daylight.
Only Comet in recent memory to do that was McNaught in 2007.
