A naked eye comet can be seen in the sky since the beginning of the month. First observed by the NEOWISE space telescope (and hence named after it) on 27/3/2020, it blossomed in brightness on nearing the Sun and became visible to unaided human eyes in July.

I’ve not observed it myself. It’s been too cloudy when I remembered to look but the photographs have been great – especially the ones with Stonehenge in the foreground.
