It was expected to be a great comet as it approached to the sun down to only 0.01 A.U. on Nov. 28. It brightened up to -2.5 mag at best. However, it rapidly faded out at the perihelion passage. It was 2-3 mag just after the perihelion passage (Nov. 29). In the Northern Hemisphere, it will appear in the morning sky again soon. It approaches to the earth down to 0.4 A.U. from mid December to early January, and it will be observable in excellent condition in the Northern Hemisphere. Probably the dust remnant will be visible around 8-9 mag. It is not observable in the Southern Hemisphere.
