C/2024-G3 ATLAS :
...and we thought the show was over !

A few weeks after the memorable visit of comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, we are granted with a new remarquable visitor of similar brightness : for the last days of January, comet ATLAS (C/2024-G3) will adorn the sunset sky, reaching to be visible as a naked eye object despite its low altitude.

We succeeded to capture it on January, 19th, just one week after its perilous approach to the Sun (at a mere 13 million kms), now passing at some 150 million kms from Earth, shining at a bright magnitude of -1.5. We can appreciate the complex structure of the long tail, as well as the extremely high density of the coma.

Obviously, we'll keep an eye on it, day after day, to witness the evolution of aspect of this particularely active comet.
