Green Comet C/2022 E3 – February 2nd Visible from Australia from February 5, but the best times to see it will be between February 9-11.

However, while NASA has said the comet might be slightly visible to the naked eye, amateur star searchers should not expect a bright-green light show. Thanks to light pollution, even seeing the comet with the naked eye could be a problem, unless you’re in a very dark part of the country.
