Giant 'Devil Comet' on Collision Course with Earth

A massive comet named 12P/Pons-Brooks, also known as the "Devil Comet," is approaching Earth and will be visible in April 2024 for the first time in 71 years. Astronomers are excited about this rare event as the comet is known for its erratic outbursts, which cause it to shine brighter. The exact size of the comet is uncertain, but it is expected to be larger than most comets. Although it poses no threat to Earth, it offers a unique opportunity for stargazers to observe this rare giant through telescopes.
