Also interestingly, this is a once in a lifetime event, only once every 71 years.
[quote]Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks is one of the brightest known comets, coming around every 71 years, according to NASA. It earned the nickname of “devil comet” in 2023 when an outburst caused the comet to have an asymmetrical appearance, similar to having horns. It is currently getting brighter as it flies toward the sun.[/quote]
