To see the comet with the naked eye — a great success. It is believed that life expectancy it only happens four times. Even rarer to see the so-called "great comet with a large fluffy "tail". The last such comet was comet Hale — BOPP in 1997.

The recently discovered comet "Neowiz" (NEOWISE C/2020 F3) has not yet become "great", but "posing" for the lovers of astronomy.

See "Neavis" in the morning sky or the evening sky, about 80 minutes before sunrise and after sunset, low on the horizon in the North-Eastern sector of the sky. July 22, the comet will approach the Earth at a distance of 103 million km.

Of course, to capture the comet — a great success. But to capture the comet on the background of noctilucent clouds — lucky twice!
