Comet 13P/Olbers will make its return to the night sky soon, marking the first time in 69 years that it’s been able to be seen from Earth. Although you may need binoculars or a telescope to view it, it’ll be the first time this comet has been visible since 1956. According to experts at Star Walk, while faint, its sky placement and distance to the sun will allow it to be best visible around June 30. |
