			A comet has suddenly become visible to the unaided eye. 
Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) was discovered in late March and 
brightened 
as it reached its closest approach to the Sun, inside the orbit of Mercury, late last week.
The interplanetary iceberg survived solar heating, so far, 
and is now becoming closer to the Earth as it starts its long trek back to the outer 
Solar System.
As Comet NEOWISE 
became one of the few naked-eye comets of the 21st Century, 
word spread quickly, and the 
comet has already been photographed 
behind many famous sites and cities 
around the globe.
Featured, 
Comet NEOWISE was captured over Lebanon two days ago just before sunrise.
The 
future brightness of Comet NEOWISE remains somewhat uncertain but the comet will likely 
continue to be 
findable not only in the early morning sky, 
but also next week in the early evening sky.
