There has been a lot of excitement about the comet Bernardinelli-Bernstein, also known as C/2014 UN271. This comet is the largest we have ever seen. Is it that special, will we be able to see it, and can we sent a spacecraft to visit it? For that matter, should we? Let's take a look at Universe Sandbox and see what we can learn!
