Maybe it's Doctor Who. 28 stories is a little high, though. If it's found to be a 28 story tall diamond would it be worth anything? What would that do anything to the price of diamonds?

I've already trashed the Northern Hemisphere, sorry about that.

Comet McNaught.

There's no guarantee this comet will reach naked eye visibility, and even if it does, it's going to be a difficult target (low northeast sky in the northern hemisphere before sunrise).  Below is a sky chart to help look for it anyway.  You may need binoculars.

Should we be expecting enhanced aurora?

 
AURORA OUTLOOK: High latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras on May 11th. That's when a disturbance in the solar wind (a "co-rotating interaction region") is expected to move past our planet and possibly disturb polar magnetic fields. NOAA forecasters estimate a 30% chance of geomagnetic activity.

AMAZING ERUPTIONS: This weekend, magnetic fields around sunspot 1069 became unstable and erupted—over and over again. On May 8th alone, the active region produced more than half a dozen flares. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory video-recorded each of the explosions with a clarity ten times better than HDTV.
