An Icy Couple
Long period comet 'Neowise" was visible from Earth in summer of 2020. Like the glacier, it's core is made of ice and evaporates due to it's closeness to the sun ('only' 300 million km) - leaving the beautiful trail (coma). Unfortunately, the comet will not be visible again for almost 7.000 years.
