Title: Will the comet tomorrow be in viewing distance?

If so, I need to get my video camera out. If it hits Earth, which it won't, then I'll get some awesome footage of the last few seconds of the world.

NASA will be all over it anyway.

Although...I couldn't find it on the list of near-earth objects on their site.  Strange.

Probably because it's not near Earth.

If it hits earth, play a flute at the last second.

venus is in viewing distance all the time.

of course it will be, but probably not without a telescope, at the right time of day, in the right place, etc.
