Tuesday will offer the best sight, with the “Evening Star” shining
brightly very close to the moon, whose dark limb will display
“Earthshine,” delicate light reflected from Earth’s oceans and ice.
Beyond that there are bound to be some “fireballs” and, potentially,
intense Northern Lights. If you have binoculars then grab a last look at
the comet before it leaves the inner solar system.
