Of course. Full moon. That's a moon. Minus twelve mag. The ISS minus five. That's about comparable. So about as bright as the ISS we knew the... Exciting. ...the Su-Ching-Chuan-Zing.

Yes, it has a very cool, pleasant light. It can't be dangerous. That means... No, full moon was minus 12. That means the comet was pretty harmless. We wouldn't have been able to see it with our eyes. Mostly harmless. The other two comets, do you know who they are?

Oh really? Yes. One is called Halley and the other one is called Hale Bob. Of course the question is whether all comets start with Hale. But these two do.

Heli is also called Helisha Comet. My bit, what I'm doing right now, is a appreciation of some Wikipedia articles. Sometimes I just love this... unsubstantial style when passionate fans write these articles on Wikipedia. Sometimes it's not quite what I'm looking for, but here it's just perfect. And the Halley comet is very bright. Do you know how often it comes back?

Oh no, wait, 1961. With luck. It was discovered by Edmond Halley. In these comets, what makes them hyper-objects is the time span. cave paintings. Well, maybe I'm exaggerating, but he finds old drawings from hundreds of years ago, where he has already been observed and painted.

Yes, lived in the 17th and 18th centuries, was then promoted to royal astronomer due to this achievement, to recognize the Halley comets as a comet and to predict its return. That was not so natural at the time. But somehow he found out that earlier reports somehow have to be the same thing and then calculated from that when he would come back. And that was right. But he didn't even notice that.
