Rare comet brightens night skies
Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is still visible in the night sky, but not for long
The coma and long tail of comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, also called C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS), is currently shining at magnitude +0.5. That's well within the grasp of the human eye. It's likely now past its best, but only just, and will likely remain a naked-eye object after sunset in the west until, and possibly through, the weekend.
Rare comet brightens the night skies in October
NEW YORK (AP) — Prepare to spot a rare, bright comet. The space rock is slinging toward Earth from the outer reaches of the solar system and made its closest pass on Saturday. It should be visible through the end of October, clear skies permitting.
The comet—traveling about 44 million miles away—was observed from Earth for the first time earlier this month.
