visited Guangzhou in 1556, associated the comet with the devastating 1556Shaanxiearthquake . In his ...The Great Comet of 1556 is a famous comet that first appeared in February 1556. The Great Comet of 1556, known as C 1556 D1 in modern nomenclature, appears to have been seen in some places before the end of February but it was not generally observed until the middle of the first week in March. Its apparent diameter was equal to half that of the Moon , and the tail resembled the flame of a torch agitated by the wind, an expression doubtless referring to the coruscation which are sometimes visible in the tails of comets.
