Russian astronomer Artyom Novichonok and astronomer from Belarus VItaly Nevsky reported about the discovery of a new comet, which may become the brightest comet in this decade. New comet of Novichonok-Nevsky was named C/2012 S1 (ISON), so it was opened at September 21, 2012 at the observatory ISON-Kislovodsk by the International Scientific Optical Network tools (ISON), which are located near Kislovodsk. Cometary nature of this object has already been confirmed in large telescopes, including telescope of Maidanak Observatory. During the refinement of the orbit of comet C/2012 S1 (ISON), was found aprediscovery, as it turned out, this comet were observed at December 28, 2011 and January 28, 2012 at the observatories of Mt. Lemmon and Pan-STARSS. But at present total arc of observations increased many times and now we can say with certainty about the orbit of the new comet. Perihelion, the closest point to the Sun, of the comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) will be in late of November 2013, approximately 0.1 AU, so if the comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) will not destroyed on the approach to the Sun, the Earth's inhabitants will be able to observe the brightest comet in decade, which will be brighter, then comet of C/2011 L4 (PAN-STARRS). Currently the comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) is only visible through a telescope, as it is still beyond the orbit of Jupiter and has glitter of 18 magnitude.THE VIDEO:
