Here We Go Again! New Sungrazer Comet C/2024 S1 (ATLAS) Might Shine Brighter Than Ever!

[@derek_boen]

Wonderful work with this video. Very informative and nicely presented!

[@Travelandshield]

Thanks bro, but I still have a long way to go before reaching a professional level.

Hyakutaki and Hale-Bop

[@Travelandshield]

Exactly but Hale Bop from 1997 was breathtaking especially for us from the northern hemisphere.

[@praveencmhydro5826]

yes cosmic change time begin for the earth 🌎... from 2025 we will see more and more comets and asteroid approaching

[@Travelandshield]

I hope so👍

[@PafMedic]

@@Travelandshield 😂🤣😂Me Too

[@phila3884]

I heard it wont be easy to see from the Northern hemisphere... I'll wait to see your take at the end of the video...

[@Travelandshield]

You're right. The conditions for observation from the Northern Hemisphere will be poor; however, if the comet is very bright, it will still be clearly visible even at a low position on the horizon.

[@nikaxstrophotography]

Unfortunaely it won't survive the sungrazing, scientists predict that it will fragment.

[@Travelandshield]

We will find out soon. However, if this comet does not break apart during its passage through the perihelion, we would have an extraordinary chance to see two bright comets within a single month.

[@PafMedic]

And Supposedly It Did,But Still Suppose To Be Noticeable

[@Travelandshield]

Let's keep fingers crossed 👍

[@PafMedic]

@@Travelandshield ❤️Thats For Sure,The Video I Watched Yesterday Said 2 Nucleus’s,But Was Still Giving Thumbs Up For A Decent Delivery,Hoping That Can Regain Itself

[@Travelandshield]

Whether it breaks up or not, I was lucky enough to do two night sessions with Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. I'll be posting some of my photos today.

[@umbro12]

One will smash earth with debris very soon, its inevitable,,

[@Travelandshield]

[@Indiana_Caver]

Sungrazers have high rate of failure on an orbit of the sun and few actually make it. Would be awesome but probably not.. we’ll see

[@Travelandshield]

Seeing a bright comet after perihelion these days is like experiencing a white Christmas-rare and magical.

[@PafMedic]

@@Travelandshield I Live In NWPA..Ive Seen A Few In My Years❤️White Christmas’s That Is

[@Travelandshield]

You're in luck, as NW Pennsylvania is a much better place for stargazing than the East Coast. I saw my first comet, Halley's Comet, in 1986. While it wasn’t as bright as Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, it was definitely a historic one.

[@PafMedic]

@@Travelandshield I Saw Halleys On The East…And West Coast…Yes…I Chased A Comet Across The Country..Wasnt My Fault My Dad Wanted To Take A Road Trip😂,I Was A Junior In HS😂

[@Travelandshield]

@PafMedic I watched Halley's Comet through my first refractor telescope. As far as I remember, there was no long tail, only a big coma around the nucleus.

[@pamelajohnson4653]

I call it the Cheech and Chong Comet... or the Sunset comet. Found it with my naked eye and a Samsung phone camera.

[@Travelandshield]

You're lucky! I'm in the Northern Hemisphere, so I’ll have to wait a while before I can see the comet.

[@pamelajohnson4653]

@Travelandshield Tonight... while the magnitude lowers... convinced it will easier to spot.

[@pamelajohnson4653]

We found it again tonight. It was noticeably higher in the sky. Almost alarmingly.

[@Travelandshield]

You mean the comet C/2024 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS), but I wonder if the next comet, C/2024 S1 (ATLAS), which is coming to perihelion in two weeks, will be as spectacular as the first one.
