The Great Comet of 1264 (C/1264 N1) was one of the brightest comets on record. It appeared in July 1264 and remained visible to the end of September. It was first seen during the evenings after sunset, but appeared in its greatest splendor in weeks afterward, when it became visible during the mornings in the northeastern sky, with the tail perceived long before the comet itself rose above the horizon.The head of the comet seemed like an obscure and ill-defined star, and the tail passed from this portion of it like expanded flames, stretching forth towards the mid-heavens to a distance of one hundred degrees from the nucleus.The comet of 1264 was described to have been an object of great size and brilliancy. The comet's splendor was greatest at the end of August and the beginning of Septemb

  • The Great Comet of 1264 (C/1264 N1) was one of the brightest comets on record. It appeared in July 1264 and remained visible to the end of September. It was first seen during the evenings after sunset, but appeared in its greatest splendor in weeks afterward, when it became visible during the mornings in the northeastern sky, with the tail perceived long before the comet itself rose above the horizon.The head of the comet seemed like an obscure and ill-defined star, and the tail passed from this portion of it like expanded flames, stretching forth towards the mid-heavens to a distance of one hundred degrees from the nucleus.The comet of 1264 was described to have been an object of great size and brilliancy. The comet's splendor was greatest at the end of August and the beginning of September. At that time, when the head was just visible above the eastern horizon in the morning sky, the tail stretched out past the mid-heaven towards the west, or was nearly 100° in length. The chroniclers of the time mention the various remarkable events which occurred in Europe at this period, and in particular connect the appearance of the comet with the death of Pope Urban IV, who allegedly fell sick on the very day when the comet was first seen, and died at the exact time it disappeared on October 3, 1264. It was said that the "prodigy of a hairy star" had brought upon his illness, and slipped away when the job was finished. This comet was likewise observed in China, and the descriptions agree with the statements of the European historians. (en)
  • 1264 års Stora Komet (C/1264 N1) var en av historiens ljusstarkare kometer.Den blev synlig i juli 1264 och förblev synlig fram till slutet av september. När den upptäcktes gick den att se efter solnedgången, men det var några veckor senare när den passerat solen och dök upp på morgonhimlen, som den bjöd på ett riktigt skådespel. Dess långa svans dök upp långt före gryningen. I slutet av augusti och början av september var kometen som ljusstarkast. När komethuvudet just dök upp över horisonten i öster, sträckte sig svansen nästan 100° över himlen. Det innebar att kometsvansen täckte drygt halva himlens längd. Tidens krönikörer noterade en rad anmärkningsvärda händelser som inträffade i Europa under dessa månader. Framför allt förknippades kometen med påven Urban IV:s död. Påven skulle ha insjuknat samma dag som kometen upptäcktes och dött exakt när den försvann den 3 oktober 1264. Det sades att den håriga stjärnan (ett uttryck som härrör från Aristoteles) orsakade hans sjukdom och stack sin väg när uppdraget var slutfört.Kometen observerades också i Kina. Beskrivningar därifrån stämmer väl överens med observationerna i Europa. (sv)
