WASHINGTON D.C., DC — Something people are calling a "Devil Comet" is making headlines.
It's named for two sections of the comet that look like horns.
The comet itself is massive. According to NASA, it is about the size of the city of Dallas, Texas, and it is getting closer to Earth.
However, astrophysicists say it's large size is no reason to panic as it's not likely to come anywhere near Earth's atmosphere.
"The closest it's gonna get to Earth is hundreds of millions of miles away, it's actually going to be farther away from the Earth than the Sun is," said Paul Sutter, a research professor at Stony Brook University.
This type of comet orbits the sun about every 70 years.
As for the horns, NASA says they're mounds of dust and ice that heat up when they get close to the sun, then refreeze.
