For several days now, a show has been visible early in the morning, an hour before sunrise. The curious have an appointment with the comet C / 2020 F3, better known under the name of Neowise, which is indeed observable with the naked eye or with binoculars.
We currently see it around 4 a.m. in the northeast direction, and in the evening around 10 p.m. It should still offer this beautiful spectacle until the end of July, with however a notable drop in light intensity.

157 million kilometers from Earth
To be sure and to be able to observe it on a clear day, it is better to find out the day before about its rising and sleeping times, as well as its exact position on various astronomy sites. Please note that the activity of a comet is not 100% reliable, it is difficult to be able to accurately predict its brightness and visibility!
This comet is about 157 million km from Earth, and will be closest to us on July 23 (about 103 million km).
Notice to astronomy and sky lovers, Comet Neowise is described as the comet of the decade!
