Some people are calling it the Comet of the Decade. It looks as big as 
the Moon in the sky. The tail is getting brighter and longer every day.
Don't miss it!

Two excellent Web sources for following Comet Hyakutake as it approaches
Earth are NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) JPL's (Jet
Propulsion Laboratory) Hyakutake Home Page, and "Night of the Comet,"
sponsored by NASA's Ames Research Service, K-12 Internet Initiative, and
SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy). The comet is
expected to close to within 9.3 million miles of Earth on March 25, 1996.
The JPL's page offers news articles from various sources, over 200 images,
orbital information, viewing hints and tips, and links to other Hyakutake
pages. "Night of the Comet" is "a virtual star party devoted to the
appearance of Comet Hyakutake," which will take place on the night of
March 25-26. This page features a call for photographs of the comet from
all over the world, which will be uploaded to the site. An "Activities
Link" connects to information about the comet, as well as suggested
school activities connected to it. The "Ask an Expert" section provides a
chat room, as well as an interactive question and answer page.
