What Wikipedia says

Comet Machholz, formally designated as C/2004 Q2, is a non-periodic comet discovered by Donald Machholz on 27 August 2004. It reached naked eye brightness in January 2005. Unusual for such a relatively bright comet, its perihelion was farther from the Sun than the Earth's orbit.
