Green beauty between star clusters<\/p><\/div>Even if a “great comet” is not in sight for a years, there are some photogenic “beauties” in the sky. The brightest one of these days is 21P\/Giacobini-Zinner<\/a> (source of popular Draconids meteor shower<\/a>), giving us beautiful sky view in the backyard telescopes.
