Comet PANSTARRS is approaching the sun for a safe close approach (0.5 AU) on April 19-20. It will not disintegrate. On the contrary, it will emerge intact as a naked-eye object of magnitude +3.
"If you want to catch the comet, your best chance is over the next week or so," says Nick James of the British Astronomical Association. "You will need to get up early, a couple of hours before sunrise, and have a good, low, eastern horizon."
At present, the comet is about as bright as a 5th magnitude star, barely visible to the naked eye, but an easy target for cameras and telescopes. Short exposures in morning twilight will reveal the comet's long tail bisecting the constellation Pegasus. Take a look! Sky maps: April 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15. (Links for the dates​ below)
