By mid-Feb- ruary binoculars will be needed to see the comet, as it leaves our part of the solar system, possibly never to return. This newest comet, Ko- houtek, brings not terror but joy to millions who see in its bright gleam a re- minder of the Christmas Star. And for scientists it is an occasion for intense excitement. Before Kohou- tek bades away in another few weeks, on its hurtling passage back to the fringes of our solar system. it will have been examined as no comet has ever been exam- ined before. Comets have a way of do- ing the unexpected. They sometimes flare. change shape. split in half, even fade prematurely. Odds are against such fates for Ko- houtek. but predictions are nonetheless always uncertain.
