The comet, known as Tsuchinshan-Atlas or Comet A3, was spotted in locations all over the county including Flordon, Wymondham and Thurne. 

It is understood the comet, which has been called "the comet of the century" by the Royal Astronomical Society, will be visible to the naked eye until October 30.

Dr Greg Brown, astronomer at Royal Observatory Greenwich, said the comet “is visible in the early evening skies from the UK”.

He added: "Low on the horizon at sunset, it is best to wait a while for the sky to darken a bit before trying to see it.

“Look to the west, just to the left of where the sunset was and, if you are lucky, it should be just about visible to the unaided eye.

“However, as it is rapidly fading as the days go on, a pair of binoculars or a small telescope will certainly help if you are struggling to find it.

“It is visible across the country, though a low western horizon is a must, and it certainly wouldn’t hurt to be out in the countryside where light pollution is less of a problem.”

The comet was only discovered in January last year but astronomers said it would last have been visible from our planet around 80,000 years ago when Neanderthals were alive.
