Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)

What is it?

Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is a long-period comet that was discovered in March 2022 by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) at the Palomar Observatory in California. It is currently making its closest approach to the Sun and will be visible to observers in the Northern Hemisphere with binoculars or small telescopes.

When and where can I see it?

Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) will be visible to observers in the Northern Hemisphere from late January to early February 2023. It will be closest to the Sun on January 12, 2023, and closest to Earth on February 2, 2023. The comet will be visible in the evening sky, just above the horizon. It will be easiest to see in dark, clear skies away from city lights.

How bright will it be?

The brightness of comets is notoriously difficult to predict, but Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is expected to be visible to the naked eye under dark, clear skies. It may even become bright enough to be seen in light-polluted skies.

What will it look like?

Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) will appear as a small, fuzzy patch of light in the sky. It will have a bright nucleus, which is the solid core of the comet, and a long, thin tail. The tail is made up of gas and dust that is streaming away from the nucleus as the comet approaches the Sun.

Is it dangerous?

No, Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is not dangerous. It will pass by Earth at a safe distance of about 44 million kilometers (27 million miles).
