October 16 ± about 2 days by what I read (http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/sbdb.cgi?sst...og=0;cad=1#cad) at minimum of .15 AU (maximum .33 AU), so could be some good photo opportunities but not likely a "threat."

(Actually what would really be cool is if we could see it passing between Mercury and Venus, but we'll barely be able to spot Venus with amateur equipment at that point, so....)

I never said it's a threat or it's the end of the world, geez XD

I just expressed my shock that this comet is going to pass so nearby.
Seeing as close it will get on october 18, we may actually see it with naked eye on the sky almost as clear as the moon (but not that big ofc) Maybe we'll get some nice photos of Venus/Mercury squeeze from NASA telescopes.


blood-raven: Apophis (as sweet as his name is) isn't going to make much harm I'm sorry.

People just enjoy doom-thinking.

Personally I'd love to see a comet this close. Comets are awesome.
