NASA identifies newly discovered object as an interstellar comet that will keep a safe distance

NASA said the comet will make its closest approach to the sun in October, scooting between the orbits of Mars and Earth — but closer to the red planet than us at a safe 150 million miles (240 million kilometres) away.
