Leonard may sound like the name of one of your grandfather s buddies, but it may also go down as the moniker of the most brilliant and dramatic comet of the year.
Comet Leonard was discovered by its namesake Greg Leonard, a senior research specialist at the University of Arizona, via the Mount Lemmon Observatory on Jan. 3.

This is what a comet looks like – just a dot to our eyes – when it’s far from the sun. Astronomers spotted Comet Leonard (inside the tick marks) in early January 2021, a year before its closest sweep past our sun. The comet might be visible to the unaided eye by the end of this year. Hot on the heels of last summer s Comet NEOWISE it s looking like the northern hemisphere
might just get another bright comet in 2021.
Discovered last week, new images of Comet Leonard appear to show the dusty visitor to the Solar System already has a bright nucleus and a tail.
