Re: "Closest approach to Earth is 19-Dec-2025."

Will we need magnification to see it?

Or, visible to the eye?

Not that it matters.

I live in Seattle.

We have cloud cover and light rain almost every day in December.

Some clear nights, if we have a cold front drop down from Canada.

Not sure. I think it might need magnification.
