Want to catch a rare glimpse of an Everest-sized comet?: Here is what you need to know about the so-called ‘Devil Comet’.
bbc.co.uk/news/av/science-environment-68858934
Quick Glance: Return of the 'Devil Comet' after 71 Years
- The green, horned 'Devil comet' is now visible in Australian skies, offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see a unique celestial body.
- The comet, whose nucleus has a 34km diameter, has been likened to Halley's comet due to its molecular structure and was nicknamed 'Devil comet' due to eruptions from its nucleus.
- The 'Devil comet,' also known as 12P/Pons-Brooks, becomes more visible as it gets closer to the sun due to its hot icy core and gas trail. It will be at its brightest on 22 April, but finding it might be challenging as it competes with the full moon.
- Experts suggest initially spotting the comet with binoculars or a telescope, although it will also be visible to the naked eye. It is considered a piece of history and special due to its brightness.

health.clevelandclinic.org/should-you-be-worried-about-blood-clots-with-covid-19
Quick Glance: The Link Between COVID-19 and Blood Clots
- A case of COVID-19 appears to increase the risk of forming dangerous blood clots long after recovering from the infection, potentially leading to a heart attack or stroke.
- Research shows that blood clot risk can remain elevated for nearly a year after getting COVID-19, especially within the first week after diagnosis and for those hospitalized.
- High inflammation levels in response to COVID-19 may trigger blood clots, as the immune system fights the virus.
- Individuals with severe COVID-19 cases, particularly those hospitalized, are at higher risk for blood clots that can block essential organs like lungs or brain.
