Here we go!Comet ATLAS could become a -6.7 mag daytime object on the 28th, albeit, it will be very close to the sun at the time, and all caution must be taken. Image taken on the 20th.

Kreutz sungrazers are believed to be fragments of a single comet that broke up at some point in the distant past. The earliest sungrazer may have been observed as far back as 317 BC,Contact me with news and offers from other Future brandsLike all comets, C/2024 S1 was essentially a"dirty snowball," a frozen body composed of gases, rocks and dust left over from the earliest days of our solar system some 4.6 billion years ago.
Some comets can take up to hundreds of thousands or millions of years to orbit the sun, although some can orbit on much shorter timescales.to keep talking space on the latest missions, night sky and more!
