A new comet has been discovered that is predicted to blaze incredibly brilliantly
in the skies during late 2013. With a perihelion passage of less than two million
kilometres from the Sun on 28 November 2013, current predictions are of an object
that will dazzle the eye at up to magnitude —16. That's far brighter than the full
Moon. If predictions hold true then C/2012 S1 will certainly be one of the greatest
comets in human history, far outshining the memorable Comet Hale-Bopp of 1997 and
very likely to outdo the long-awaited Comet Pan-STARRS (C/2011 L4) which is set to
stun in March 2013.
