The greatest thing about the night sky is that it’s not the same every night. New constellations appear with the change of seasons; showers of meteors rain down from time to time; and sometimes we’re treated to an eclipse. Best of all, a comet might pay us a visit.  (David H. Levy, Author, Astronomer, Comet Hunter)
