Sky and Telescope via Source

From now up to 7/23/20 comet Neowise can be viewed in the night sky and once it leaves it will not be back for another 7,000 years.

Meteorologist Eric Zernich posted on Facebook yesterday:
"Starting tonight at about 11PM you can view the Comet NEOWISE along the horizon just below the Big Dipper. For the next week the comet will climb higher in the sky giving us a long duration to view the comet. This weekend we show have the best viewing conditions with mainly clear skies to really see the comet. This comet will not be visible again for about 7,000 years"
