SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Stargazers are being treated to something special as the Comet NEOWISE (also known as Comet C/2020 F3) whizzes by earth and giving a show this month that can be seen by the naked eye.
NEOWISE is brighter than Haley’s Comet which was visible 34 years ago. Comet NEOWISE was just discovered heading to earth in March, and passed a test that many comets don’t survive, a path by the sun.
South Lake Tahoe resident John Gomez woke up early Friday morning to catch a glimpse of NEOWISE and took the photos in this story.
