How to See the 'Comet of the Century' in the UK

A comet that hasn't been seen in 80,000 years will be visible in the UK on Saturday evening, according to the Royal Astronomical Society.

This comet, known as A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS), has been called the 'comet of the century' for its brightness and visibility.

It will be closest to Earth on Saturday, passing within 70 million kilometers, and the best time to see it will be immediately after sunset.

To get the best view, head to higher ground and look towards the western horizon, away from buildings and trees.
