Rare Green Comet To Be Visible From Earth After 50,000 Years (Video)

An incredibly rare green comet will zip past Earth tonight for the first time since the age of the Neanderthals 50,000 years ago.

Comet C/2022 E3 will fling past our planet at a distance of about 26.4 million miles (42.5 million km). 

Stargazers will be able to tell the difference between the comet and surrounding stars as it will have a streaking trail of dust following it.
