Neowise Comet or officially known as C / 2020 F3 is a comet that was discovered on March 27, 2020. According to the National Institute of Aviation and Space (LAPAN), the Neowise comet will be visible in Indonesia from 19 to 25 July 2020.
The Comet Neowise will reportedly not be seen again in 6,800 years. The comet has many features, citing Space .
Comets which are also often dubbed as " cosmic snowballs " are made of ice, stone, and dust. They will orbit into the sun, when most comets will heat up and begin to drain two tails (one made of gas and dust, the other made of electrically charged gas molecules or ions).
Because the light is so bright, to see the Neowise comet is relatively easy for astronomy fans to see it in the night sky only with the naked eye.
"It's very rare for comets to have bright light so that we can see them with the naked eye or even just with binoculars," said Emily Kramer, a research team of investigators for NEASAISE NEASA at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
According to Kramer, comets have a lot of water in them even like the 13 million Olympic water swimming pools. The size of Neowise is about 3 miles (5 kilometers) in diameter, which means it is quite large but is of average size.
While the speed owned by Neowise with a speed of 40 miles per second (around 144,000 mph, or 231,000 km / hour). Joe Masiero, deputy chief investigator of the Neowise mission, said the comet was moving about twice as fast as Earth's speed around the Sun.
Don't worry, Neowise's comet will not hit Earth. Where the comet is currently around 70 million miles (111 million kilometers) away from Earth, Lindley Johnson said that Neowise crossed the plane of Earth's orbit in the recovery orbit and nearly approached Mercury's orbit.
