C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS
October 20th 2024
The brightest comet visible in 2024...indeed for about 27 years
had rapidly faded from view since reaching perihelion on 28 September 2024
Can you see the comet in the image above?
(place your mouse cursor over the image to find it)
It was barely visible
to the naked eye by October 20th when
photographed here from Wentworth Falls in Australia.
