Comet Holmes Halo Bigger Than The Sun

Universe Today reports Comet Holmes is Bigger than the Sun. "Astronomers from the University of Hawaii's Institute for Astronomy recently measured the halo surrounding Comet Holmes to be 1.4 million kilometres (0.9 million miles)...that makes it larger than the Sun."

I still check every night if the skies are clear to take a look at it. Thursday is astronomy night at CfA and I'm hoping the weather predictions of rain are wrong.
