Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS (C/2023 A3) is now getting brighter and growing a tail, according to Sky and Telescope.
That doesn’t sound right. Has it seen a doctor?
Ugh, are you one of those comet change deniers that doesn’t believe in evolution, and thinks god made the second comet from a rib of the first?
“Even if it does get that bright, we’re unlikely to get much benefit because, at its brightest, it will be very low on the horizon and lost in its haze, as seen from the northern hemisphere.”
Sweet.
Looking more forward to the soon to be seen nova. Been a banner year for stargazing _
When is that supposed to happen?
For whatever reason (mostly geography), I missed all my chances of experiencing beautiful celestial events. None of the major eclipses that happened (solar or lunar) were viewable where I am, the aurora didn’t even reach us, and despite being the closest neighbor south to both Spain and Portugal, I didn’t see that comet either. All I remember seeing was rainbows, and even those are really rare.
Can you tell I hate being in Morocco?
I’ve seen the northern lights dozens of times and I’m in my 20s
