It was expected to brighten very rapidly, and brighten up to 14.5 mag from August to September. However, its current brightness is very uncertain. It could not be detected as fainter than 18.0 mag on June 30 (Charles S. Morris), and fainter than 15.7 mag on July 13 (Sandor Szabo).

It will pass the perihelion in 2021, and it was predicted to be observable at 17-18 mag from 2020 to 2022. However, it has not been observed at all since 2015. It was not detected, fainter than 20.5 mag, in 2017 May (Werner Hasubick).

Sam Deen pointed out that it brightened in outburst twice in 2017 and 2019. It was observed at 20-21 mag in 2017. Then it became fainter than 22.9 mag in 2018 summer (Aug. 29, Sam Deen). However, it brightened up to 17.2 mag in 2019 spring (Mar. 25, B. T. Bolin). Then it faded again down to 19.9 mag (May 29, Toshihiko Ikemura, Hirohisa Sato). Now it is 18.1 mag (July 9, J. Jahn). It is predicted to stay observable at 18 mag for a long time from 2019 to 2021. But actually, it may be fainter than this ephemeris.

Fragment of C/1844 Y1 (Great Comet). It brightened up to 7.0 mag in late March ((Mar. 30, Charles S. Morris). But the nucleus was split into some fragments, and it faded out after that. It was 9.1 mag in mid May (May 17, Sandor Szabo). It approached to Sun down to 0.25 a.u. on May 31. In the Northern Hemisphere, it is not observable after this. In the Southern Hemisphere, it is appearing in the morning sky, but it locates extremely low.
