Nov 3 2023 marks the furthest Halley's comet will be from Earth before making the turn-around trip back.

If you were planning to give it the finger or talk shit about it, today's your last opportunity before it turns around and sees you.

I remember in 1986 repeatedly going outside, looking up in wonder and curiosity, and scanning the night sky. Each time I ended up thinking, "Gosh, none of that looks like a comet. Why am I outside?"

What date will it cross Uranus' path? Enquiring minds want to know.

Times I heard about Halley's Comet in 1986: 30
Times I actually saw Halley's Comet: 0

We went to a lookout, out of town to avoid the city light, and looked up with a pair of binoculars.
We clearly saw the comet but it wasn't until decades later that some individual coined a term that summed up my feelings perfectly; meh.

I also remember being really excited about seeing it as 1986 approached. Ultimately, it was a small fuzzy dim blob of light. Disappointing.
