    The fact that this amateur astronomer made a recent discovery despite billions of dollars invested in the sky surveys that scan the sky’s with automation EVERY night is a testament to the human spirit and persistence. As a amateur comet hunter with understanding myself how difficult it is now. I am awestruck!

    @@CharlesXX I remember comet Holmes back in 2007. It wasn't that spectacular looking at it with the naked eye. Just a little blob in the sky. Then I decided to do a search for it online and read up on it and found out it ejected so much material around itself as it got closer to the Sun, that the "halo" of the material became bigger than the Sun. It blew my mind that I witnessed something that seems impossible. Ever since then, I will never underestimate anything in Astronomy ever again. I mean, we even got to witness an asteroid collision with Jupiter that left marks in its atmosphere that were bigger than the Earth! This is stuff that kids need to learn about in school!

    Don't give up on your dreams is the moral of this discovery. Which is a good thing in this era of groupthink. Myself, I saw Hale-Bopp in 96-97 and I feel privileged to live at at time when we had the opportunity to see two brighter than average comets. I also feel blessed with the evidence that individuals still count for a lot when they make the effort to do things out of the norm.

Everyone dies four deaths. The first death is when your body ceases to function. The second is when you are consigned to the grave never to be looked upon again. The third is that moment when the last person with a living memory of you perishes. And for those who left a mark great enough to affect the world at large, their final death comes when their name is spoken for the very last time.

    Thank you to Mr. Nishimura for finding this Comet. I remember getting to see a comet going East to West in the northern sky when I was a young girl. I live in Green Bay Wisconsin. It took many days to go past & we got to watch it each night it was going past. So glad there was no clouds that keep us from seeing it. I remember getting to see it till it was past the earth, It was really cool getting to see it back them. that was back in the 1960,s or early 1970's I am 64 now. Now most of the time when there is one to see, there is always clouds. I was sad them the green comet was here I did not get to see it at all thanks to clouds in the night time sky. & It's all clouds here. So I don't thing we all get to see it at all here. 😢😢

    3:45 Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 didn't have any interactions with the sun. It had been captured by Jupiter (some speculate that it was trapped in Jupiter's gravity well for 20 years) before being ripped apart when it crossed the Rochė limit on approach to Jupiter, and broke up and the fragments fell into Jupiter and gave us a spectacular fireworks show in Jupiter's atmosphere! It didn't hurt that the Galileo probe was in the final stages of its initial approach to Jupiter when this happened, and gave us lots of science about Jupiter and the comet...

    You'll need a good 25mm to 35mm wide angle eyepiece to appreciate it...or likely even find it in dark skies. You can probably get close with strong binoculars and then start pointing the scope. Most budget scopes under 6" have too many high magnification eyepieces (4mm, 6, 8, 12mm) since they are usually bought to watch the Moon, Jupiter and Saturn. However a 32 or 35mm eyepiece will open your scope up to seeing full clusters and constellations, conjunctions and nebulae like Orion. Just an unsolicited suggestion, but far cheaper than buying a bigger scope...and if you do the new eyepiece will still work.

On the night I clambered out of bed around 3 in the morning after hearing about it on the radio I was greeted with the sight of the comet and tail stretching over at least a third of the sky. Next night, nothing - it had gone. By comparison, Halley wasn't even visible.

    Nishimura is possibly a "sign" of the times. As stated in this video, it was never seen before and will never be seen again. An event we Christians are awaiting is an event that has never happened before and will never happen again. That event is all over KZread right now. We are hoping Nishimura is a "sign" of that event. We also as Christians know Nishimura is going to be most visible on the Jewish feast of Trumpets that is to occur Friday, September 15, and end at sundown on Sunday, September 17. And that lines up perfectly with the arrival of this comet. I implore anyone who has questions to search KZread and find out what God has planned for us. If not, realize this, this world is turning upside down. Everything is going wrong. Things are out of control. Society is melting down and our freedoms are eroding. All the answers are with God. Seek him and know Christ. Nothing but good can come of this. Nothing but evil can come of this world.

    My mathematical intuition leads me to conclude that either CN entered this path through a direct perturbance on THIS trip in, or it is not from the Oort cloud at all, but from an extra-solar region. If the latter, then the most important scientific information to gather is to study the spectrograph to determine just what the consitutents are. If the former then the most important scientific information is it's path in, as backtracking that path should find some external body that is either of a very large size or flew extremely close in order to so divert it inward so rapidly.

    My reaction to this was a brief moment of hope for humanity yet that feeling was instantly overshadowed by sense of great sadness. And right now this very moment I feel a sense of fear. I suppose its just the fact this new comet is unpredictable

    I remember watching Halley's comet in 1986. I don't specifically recall watching (i.e. by naked eye) other comets but I'm fairly sure there have been more than ''once in a lifetime'' instances. What sort of world do we live in where even science-based sources can't be asked to be honest about headlines or reports?

    @@kensmith2839 I see what you mean, however... how do they know it won't become a short period comet after gravitational interactions with other bodies in the Solar System? They say it will never return, but how can they be certain? The 2nd half of the video is all about the unpredictability of comets in general and Nishimura in particular. Taking all this into account the precise meaning of the headline becomes ambiguous, not to say hyperbolic in the figurative sense of the word.

    Over 50 years ago as a child while on a family camping holiday I spotted a commit with my unaided but very acute childhood eyesight. I tried to point it out to my dad but he couldn’t see it. Back home over the next few months I tracked its progress across the sky when the weather permitted. You can imagine my disappointment when it was announced on the TV news that a new commit had been discovered and was named after some astronomer I can no longer recall the name of. That was my commit.

    Thank you for these beautiful pictures. Thanks to geologists we think that all living beings on our planet Earth have the most to fear from an asteroid impact or volcano eruptions. But when we look at the many horizontal layers that we find everywhere on our planet, we clearly see the effect of a repeating cataclysm. These disasters are mentioned in ancient books like the Mahabharata from India and the Popol Vuh from the Mayans and others. They tell us about a cycle of seven disasters. Certainly, a cycle of regularly recurring global disasters cannot be caused by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions. The only possible cause is another celestial body, a planet, orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit. Then it is close to the sun for a short period and after the crossing at a very high speed it disappears into the universe for a long time. Planet 9 exists, but it seems invisible. These disasters cause a huge tidal wave of seawater that washes over land "above the highest mountains." At the end it covers the earth with a layer of wet mud, a mixture of sand, clay, lime, fossils of marine and terrestrial animals and small and larger meteorites. The Northern hemisphere is covered with a layer of ice that fell down "in blocks as great as mountains". These disasters also create a cycle of civilizations. To learn much more about the recurring flood cycle, the re-creation of civilizations and its timeline and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: invisible nibiru 9

    Now that was an interesting video. In it, you attribute a solid form to comets. In the 1950s my physics teacher, a keen amateur astronomer, described them as being loose collections of ice and dust, which is why and how their tails are produced, as the sun "blows" (solar wind) material away from their fringes, where their tiny gravitational forces are at their least. Among all the comets that have been hailed as the biggest or brightest, none that I have seen (I'm 82 now) even begin to compare with the great and beautiful Arend Roland comet of 1957. If I held my arm outstretched and opened my hand wide, it just covered the comet as I looked up.
