The comet should remain visible throughout the month and may be visible to the naked eye as a faint green glow in dark sky locations.
Make sure to try and view the comet while it remains in the night sky, as this might be our last look at C/2022 E3 before it leaves our solar system. Geza Gyuk, an astronomer at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago, saidthat for comets similar to C/2022 E3 with highly elliptical orbits that swing them out to the outermost regions of the solar system,"it is very easy for them to have their orbit perturbed thus making them leave the solar system entirely.
When it approaches on Wednesday , the comet will be in the Camelopardalis constellation in the northern skies. While at perigee, the comet will be within 26 million miles of Earth, equal to roughly 28% of the distance between the sun and Earth. The comet should remain visible throughout the month and may be visible to the naked eye as a faint green glow in dark sky locations, but will certainly be visible through binoculars or a telescope.
