ISON emerged from behind the Sun in August, and was bright enough to be visible through small telescopes or binoculars. It is expected to become visible to the naked eye by late October or early November, and remain so until mid-January 2014. In October, the comet will pass through the constellation Leo, near its brightest star Regulus. It will then pass near Mars in the night sky. These brighter objects should make it easy to locate. The comet will reach its perihelion on November 28, at which time it is expected to be extremely bright, possibly brighter than the full Moon.
