There’s a comet overhead in the Bluffton sky. This week is a good week to try to view it. 

The Icon asked Mike Edmiston for details about the comet. His remarks follow:

The comet is called Neowise. It has passed behind the Sun and is now heading back out of the solar system. Between now and the end of July should be a good time to see it.
