Next Event: Comet ISON Update - April 30, 5:00 p.m. ET

Watch the possible "comet of the century" speed through the solar system on its way to a close, possibly brilliant flyby of the sun in November. 

Officials from the online Slooh Space Camera are broadcasting live shots of Comet ISON from their remote observatory off the west coast of Africa in the Canary Islands.

SPACE.com's Managing Editor Tariq Malik, Slooh's President Patrick Paolucci and Slooh engineer Paul Cox will be the expert participants in today's webcast.

"Our goal with these ISON update shows is to give the general public an early view of this comet as it heads toward the Sun and Earth — prior to its encounters in late November and December respectively," Paolucci said in a statement.

The Slooh webcast will be availabe in the window above.

You can also follow the Slooh webcast live via the Slooh Space Camera website.
