A “devil comet” known for its occasional outbursts is currently visible in the night sky, and lucky stargazers may even be able to spot the celestial object during next month’s much-anticipated solar eclipse. Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks was nicknamed the 'devil comet' because an eruption last year left it with two distinct trails of gas and ice in the shape of devil horns. At the moment, the comet is visible from the Northern Hemisphere with binoculars and telescopes.
Sunlight and solar radiation can heat a comet’s core, sometimes causing violent outbursts, as has happened several times with Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks. The comet can be seen in the early evenings from the Northern Hemisphere by gazing toward the west-northwest horizon. It is expected to brighten through the end of the month and will be visible, if local conditions are clear and dark, until early May.
