A brand-new bright comet will dazzle the sky across the Northern Hemisphere this September.
“It will visit us only once, with the sun acting as a gravitational slingshot, sending the comet hurtling back into deep space after its flyby,” it mentioned.
When the intense sunlight makes contact with the comet's surface for the first time, a wide range of outcomes becomes possible. Due to the heat and pressure produced by the Sun and the solar wind, the comet may melt and disintegrate in some cases. While the brightness of a comet may increase dramatically in some cases, as comets approach the Sun, the heat transforms their frozen core into dust and gas, creating a long tail. Sunlight bounces off its tail, allowing us to see comets from Earth.
