Excitement is mounting for astronomers and star gazers the world over as word spreads that Comet ISON may go down in the history books as one of the flashiest ever.
some suggest it might be equal in luminescence to the planet Mars, while others hint that it might be as bright as the moon, which means it would be visible even during daylight hours

Awesome! I remember checking out Hale-Bopp back in the late 90's. I remember one night in particular fishing out of the boat with my old man and I think we spent more time checking out the comet than fishing.
