The potentially incredible Comet ISON has a companion in the morning sky.
The morning sky currently plays host to a newly discovered comet, which at present moment is actually higher in the sky, noticeably brighter and easier to see than the most-ballyhooed Comet ISON.
The new comet was discovered by Australian amateur astronomer Terry Lovejoy. Lovejoy discovered a spectacular sungrazing comet in December 2011 and discovered the one gracing the skies now, his third comet, on Sept. 7.
