Subject: [WSFA] Watch Green Comet Reach Peak Brightness This Week
Reply-To: WSFA members <WSFAlist@KeithLynch.net>

Excerpt:
Keep your eyes on the skies this week and you might spot the glowing,
green comet Lovejoy reaching its bright peak in the heavens.

Australian astronomer Terry Lovejoy first spotted comet Lovejoy (C/2014
Q2) in August, when it was still flying past Jupiter and visible only
through large telescopes. The comet is plunging through the inner solar
system for the first time in more than 11,000 years.

To the delight of sky-watchers, the comet has quickly brightened in the
Northern Hemisphere's skies since the December holidays, on its way to
reaching its expected mid-January peak.
