NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day

2024 September 30 - Comet Tsuchinshan over Mexico


Listen Later

In today's image, we see the comet known as Tsuchinshan-ATLAS as seen from a drone hovering about the clouds in Mexico. While the comet it currently at the edge of naked-eye visibility, it may brighten over the coming weeks to make it even brighter and visible without the aid of binoculars or a telescope.
