Two Comets in October?
- Around mid-October, C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) may be visible after sunset. Show Tsuchinshan-ATLAS on our Night Sky Map (below).
- There were hopes that C/2024 S1 (ATLAS)—a Kreutz sungrazer—might become bright toward the end of October. However, the latest indications are discouraging. Show C/2024 S1 on our Night Sky Map (below).
Currently showing previous night. For planet visibility in the coming night, please check again after 12 noon.
