Comet Neowise is making its closest approach to Earth tonight but since it is on its way out of the solar system, it is fading as it moves away from the sun. It was very visible last night with binoculars and with the camera for a 3 second shot, but not visible by eye in bright suburban skies. Tonight it should be below the handle of the Big Dipper, at this point as a fuzzy star with a small tail pointing upwards (away from the sun). I hope you all get a chance to see it. Going to be 6,800 years before it comes back.
