NASA confirms that a 2 mile wide comet, discovered by amateur Russian Astronomers, is coming our way. The comet is know as ISON. According to NASA:
“Comet ISON appears on course to achieve sungrazer status as it passes within a solar diameter of Sun’s surface in late 2013 November. Whatever survives will then pass nearest the Earth in late 2013 December,” NASA astronomers explained in a posting. ‘Astronomers around the world will be tracking this large dirty snowball closely to better understand its nature and how it might evolve during the next 15 months’ “The comet, which is estimated to be nearly two miles wide, will likely be one of the largest comets to ever pass Earth. While there is a chance that ISON will disintegrate when it approaches the sun, some astronomers say heat from the sun will vaporize ices in its body, creating what could be a spectacular tail.”

I think that a bright object in the sky at the end of December may remind some of another bright object in the sky several thousand years ago.
Just saying.

It could almost be called the Obama comet. Cold as ice turns steamy at the first bit of heat but unlike the comet he is not the brightest thing in the night sky.
