The Long Tails Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS #Space
A bright comet is moving into the evening skies

A starry sky is pictured with a long bright streak running
diagonally from the lower left to the upper right. The lower
left part of the sky sky orange sprinkled with a few dark
clouds.
Please see the explanation for more detailed information.
Explanation:
A bright comet is moving into the evening skies.

C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) has brightened and
even though it is now easily
visible to the unaided eye,
it is so near to the Sun that it is still difficult to see.

Pictured, Comet
Tsuchinshan–ATLAS
was captured just before sunrise from an
Andes Mountain in
Peru.

Braving cold weather, this unusually
high perch
gave the astrophotographer such a low eastern horizon
that the
comet
was obvious in the pre-dawn sky.

Visible in the
featured image is not only an
impressively long dust tail extending over
many degrees,
but an impressively long and blue
ion tail, too. 

This month, as the
comet moves out from the
Sun
and passes the Earth,
evening observers should be able to see the huge dirty
ice ball toward the west just after
sunset.
