Details:
After 10 months of hibernation, it is once again visible to the naked eye in the constellation of the Cetus MIRA, the most famous variable star in the sky, the only one capable of literally appearing and disappearing from the sky, reaching the magnitude of the other bright stars that 'draw' the constellations.
From a quick glance taken from near Rome I estimated a brightness very similar to Kaffaljidhma, but in the coming days it should continue to rise, so it can be followed – with all the planets – and without too much trouble every evening in the coming weeks, before it reaches twilight.
