Here's How to See Comet NEOWISE Just After Sunset - It Won't Be Seen Again for Another 6800 Years

For those hoping to see Comet Neowise for themselves, here’s what to do:

Find a spot away from city lights with an unobstructed view of the sky.

Just after sunset, look below the Big Dipper in the northwest sky.

If you have them, bring binoculars or a small telescope to get the best views of this dazzling display.

Each night, the comet will continue rising increasingly higher above the northwestern horizon.

Tonight I was able to see it from my own street! There’s a tree in my yard blocking but I can walk up the street a house or two and see it. Still so awesome.
 Quoting: Isis One


Yay!!! Happy you got to see it!

applause2

I'm gonna head back to the tower nearby tonight. The view there was absolutely amazing and will be my new spot for sky shows. If the sky is clear tonight I'll do a little video. :)

Thanks Simple. Insomnia is almost worse. Nothing more frustrating than laying there not sleeping at all. I fall asleep quickly, but I tend to get restless sleep. Wake up a lot briefly, then fall back asleep. But for some reason the last two days I have woken up so early in the morning, and once it's daylight there's pretty much no chance of me falling back asleep. It sucks! I hope we both have a better night tonight!
 Quoting: KickinIt


Try some tea, calming kind if you have it - regular if not, about 30 minutes before bed, a little milk added if you can stand that. It is the little milk that helps relax you enough to fall asleep. Shuts your mind off.

Doesn't always work but my mom swore by it. Then again she swore by warm milk before bed too. I've had sleep issues since I was a teen. Since the CPaP machine, it is a little better but not perfect. No magic bullet with that thing, lol
 Quoting: WhiteAngel


Thanks for the input. I have a lot of nighttime teas, and I do use them (more in the winter). They don't help, because my problem isn't falling asleep. It's getting deep/restful sleep and waking early. I'm hoping it's something that will magically fix itself over time. Unfortunately I'm only getting older, and sleep quality diminishes over time so there's not much I can do about it.

What about a grounding mat? You slip between your mattress and bed spring I thing. You run a conduit out your window to the ground. Everything is about vibration and frequency.
 Quoting: Isis One


They have grounding mats now that you can place on the floor under your desk so that you can put your bare feet on it while using the computer. I've considered getting one myself.

I saw it!!! Through some light clouds, but still saw it! Outside of that tower is THE perfect spot. Tomorrow night is supposed to be clear so I'm going back for a better view.

Then the excitement kicked in and I was jumping up and down, and yes, other people were around haha! Didn't matter at all. tounge

Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated
Thank you all for keeping everyone updated here at GLP. I definitely appreciate this thread and the multitude of people who keep it going. I personally think we are about to get some major earth movements in the near future. The actual physical earth can't take much more of the poison and toxicity most of humanity inflicts upon it daily. If you guys haven't figured out by now, I am routing for team Gaia. Although, that being said, I am also routing for the human entities that want to help clean up our mess that we all, whether knowingly or not, contributed to. We were supposed to be good stewards to the earth, not take dominion over it. That only makes sense, right? Can you imagine what it would have been like if we as a whole had chosen to Love the earth, instead of poisoning it? Well, we would have clean air and water if nothing else. Now, we have a being that wants to heal at any cost.
I hope everyone here has a good day!hf
 Quoting: Gaia, The Goddess


Makes sense to me :)

I hope you have a good day too, and thank you for joining us here.

Good afternoon John! We're getting that kind of heat in the northeast this weekend as well. It's funny when we get this kind of heat since we don't get it as regularly as other states. They've even issued a heat emergency and I got an alert a little while ago from TWC saying 'hazardous heat in your area'. Hazardous lol.

It's pretty hot today though. Tomorrow is supposed to be our scorcher.

COMET NEOWISE UPDATE: We have some good news and some bad news. Bad news first: Comet NEOWISE is beginning to dim. Since it flew by the sun in early July, the comet's brightness has dropped by about 2 magnitudes. Good news: The comet's tail is still visible to the naked eye, and a short exposure with an off-the-shelf camera is sufficient to reveal NEOWISE's magnificence.

To wit, this picture taken last night by Jeff Dai from Ankang, China: [link to spaceweathergallery.com (secure)]

"The magnitude of the comet may have gone down, but the tail is still visible to the naked eye, around 5 to 7 degrees of it," says Dai. "The comet is even friendlier to the camera. It appears at sunset and each night it is climbing higher into darker skies. I was lucky to capture the comet and a satellite flash together."

The comet is now moving toward Ursa Major, the constellation of the Bear. This means observers can use the stars of the Big Dipper to find the comet. The week ahead should be a good one for even casual photographers of the night sky.

It's the worst. Sorry you're going through it too. I'm glad you have today off so at least you can relax. I laid in bed staring at the back of my eyelids until 4:00/4:30am before finally falling asleep. Awful.

It's a great pic! Did you need binoculars or were you able to see w/a naked eye? And what time did you see it?
 Quoting: KickinIt


I could see it naked eye even through light clouds! Nef had a hard time seeing it at first but he too spotted it in between some of the clouds. It was faint, but I knew what it was the second I spotted it. We were up at the tower from 9:30-10:30 watching it play peek-a-boo through the clouds lol. The tail is also naked eye visible. The Big Dipper is an excellent starting point when trying to see the comet. The comet is under the Big Dipper. Northwest sky.

The Stellarium app or website is helpful so that you can check the best time for you to look on any date of your choice. [link to stellarium-web.org (secure)] I got to see the ISS fly by again tonight because of Stellarium. :)
 Quoting: Simple27


It will appear to zoom across the northwestern sky about an hour after sunset, below the Big Dipper, according to NASA.

The best dates to see it are now through Sunday, according to Space.com.

We will have clouds but hoping for a break so we can see. If it is mostly cloudy, won't happen. No rain, just dry irksome clouds

 Quoting: Simple27


I thought after this weekend it will start to fade away as it gets further away?

Looks like I was wrong:

Comet NEOWISE will be closest to Earth on July 22-23, 2020. It will pass at some 64 million miles (103 million km) from our planet. The good news is that – if the comet continues looking great – the view during the night of closest approach should be nice for many of us at temperate latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere. Although binoculars are required for the celestial visitor, it will be visible at the same time we see a beautiful crescent (not too bright) moon.
