HEADS UP! A rare green comet that was last seen 50,000 years ago will past by Earth on February 1, 2023.
The comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) will make its closest approach to Earth in 50,000 years on February 1 as it passes by within 28 million miles (42 million kilometers) of our planet.
The likelihood that one will actually be able to see the comet depends on a number of circumstances, including location and light pollution from both natural and manmade sources.
