Comet Neowise: Amazing Pic Shows Comet Getting Closest To Earth
The image was captured in Adirondacks Mountain ranges in the United States by a Reddit user.
Comet Neowise is passing through our solar system right now, visible from Earth all through this month.
With each passing day, as Neowise comet continues its journey across the stars in our sky, we witness a new avatar of the beautiful comet and its spectacular tail. We¡¯ve already seen the beautiful Neowise comet from space in 4K or along with breathtaking aurora lights and meteor showers.
However, the next image is by far one of the most breathtaking images of the Neowise comet ever captured till date. This Neowise comet image was making its rounds on microblogging platform Reddit.
Captured by Reddit user DanielJStein, you get to witness the majestic comet Neowise leaving its trail with the crimson-orange sunrise in the horizon. This image of the Neowise comet was captured in Adirondacks Mountain ranges in the United States.
Photographing Comet Neowise from Earth
Reddit user DanielJStein expressed his happiness of capturing the Neowise comet stating, ¡°My first successful shot at Neowise! I am so happy to finally get something after constant cloudy nights. I took this shot last weekend as the Comet was setting on the horizon. Fun fact: because of the latitude of the ADK¡¯s, the comet never actually sets. It can, however, get concealed by the mountains when it gets low enough. Just 20 minutes after this shot was taken the nucleus was actually hidden behind that peak to the right, but the tail was still visible!¡±

Comet Neowise (also referred to as C/2020 F3) was first discovered on March 27, 2020, with the help of NEOWISE space telescope (that¡¯s also how it got its name) which is located around 525 kilometres above the Earth¡¯s surface.
Earth will have had its closest encounter with the beautiful Comet Neowise on July 23 and it will truly be a sight to behold if it manages to maintain the same level of brightness and intensity and from the looks of it, it sure feels like it.
The passing comet Neowise which won't return for another 7,000 years is also expected to rise a little higher in the sky during this time.
