A bright comet for 2020? Third time lucky?

Here we go again! A potentially impressive comet, Comet Neowise, is currently swinging around the Sun. It's brightening steadily and has reached magnitude 1 now: that's brighter than the four brightest stars in Ursa Major!!!
It's too near the Sun to see yet, but fingers crossed for a week or two's time.
