12/16/2018 3 years later..December 17th 2021- Comet Leonard.
Luke 13:7
And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Behold, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?’
A "Christmas Comet" is coming. The night sky might seem like a static, never-changing place, but on Sunday, Dec. 16, 2018 a 1.2-kilometer-wide comet will pass just 12 million kilometers from Earth. That's about 30 times the distance between Earth and the moon, and about as close as comets ever get, but nowhere close enough to be dangerous. However, it is in the sweet spot to make it appear to be brighter than most comets.

On December 17th in particular it will be possible to observe Comet Leonard quite close to the planet Venus and Saturn..
