'Comet Of The Century' Is Coming, And Here's Where You Can See It (INFOGRAPHIC)
The Huffington Post  |  By Macrina Cooper-White    |     Posted: 11/18/13 EST  |  Updated: 11/18/13 EST



Grab your binoculars, stargazers. Touted as the "comet of the century," Comet ISON is in full "outburst mode," having brightened dramatically over the course of a few days. It's now visible to the naked eye, according to amateur astronomers.

Less than two weeks away from a Nov. 28 perihelion -- the comet's close graze past the surface of the sun -- ISON is streaking through the constellation of Virgo. As it continues along its course, this is the journey ahead -- if it survives its upcoming solar flyby.

* Random quote

I shall not confront Planet as an enemy, but shall accept its mysteries as gifts to be cherished. Nor shall I crudely seek to peel the layers away like the skin from an onion. Instead I shall gather them together as the tree gathers the breeze. The wind shall blow and I shall bend. The sky shall open and I shall drink my fill.
~Gaian Acolyte's Prayer
