A recently discovered comet will zoom through the sky in January and February.

The comet – C/2022 E3 (ZTF) – was first sighted in March last year when it was already inside the orbit of Jupiter, NASA said. It will make its closest approach to the sun on Jan. 12 and then passes its closest to Earth on Feb. 2. On that day, the comet, which appear to be bright green, will be about 27 million miles away from the Earth.

“This comet isn’t expected to be quite the spectacle that Comet NEOWISE was back in 2020. But it’s still an awesome opportunity to make a personal connection with an icy visitor from the distant outer solar system,” the space agency said.

While comets can be notoriously unpredictable, if this one continues in its current trend in brightness, it will be easy to spot with binoculars and possible it could become visible to the unaided eye under the dark sky, according to NASA. The best time to see the comet will be in the early mornings, though you may also be able to spot it in the period from dusk to midnight.

Viewers should look in the northern part of the sky below the Big Dipper for the best viewing chance.

Observers in the Northern Hemisphere will find the comet in the morning sky as it moved swiftly towards the northwest in January. The Southern Hemisphere will get its chance to see C/2022 E3 in February.
