ANOTHER NEW COMET TOWARDS THE EARTH NOW!

HALOWEEN COMET C/2024 S1 (ATLAS) (previously A11bP7I) is a sungrazing comet that was discovered by ATLAS-HKO in Hawaii on 27 September 2024. The comet will pass its perihelion on 28 October 2024. The comet has a similar orbit to the Kreutz sungrazers, which was created by the fragmentation of a large comet. After perihelion it could become visible to the naked eye and could look like C/2011 W3 (Lovejoy), another Kreutz sungrazer.

Feb 2008 late afternoon Qld Australia my kids start yelling for me to see something in the sky, not wanting to be bothered I shouted back its a plane, they replied that it was too big, I bolted to the front yard and saw them pointing high in the east, there was a dark hazy mass the size of an out stretched hand, I had no idea what it was but saw it was getting bigger and bigger, I was baffled as it grew in seconds and blanketed half the sky like a shadow, then it clarified into perfect detail, it was an asteroid of impossible size and speed, the angle of the afternoon sunlight fell directly on and illuminated its facing surface and near side cliffs yet it did not shine or reflect, it was Dark and unreflecting like coal dust despite direct sunlight.. the facing cliffs and surface were not formless and it was a chunk of something much larger like a moon, that much was apparent, for a full ten seconds it ghosted Half the sky at incredible speed for something seemingly as big as Australia, bigger even..the best analogy is that of an Ant at a level train crossing watching a soundless freight train go past, speed and size corresponding..The most Fantastic Mind Boggling sight ever witnessed by a Human in All of Time .. there is much more but thats it as brief as I can.. almost as mind boggling was there was no report of it despite it being unmissable by the space agencies, though understandable, panic will not help ... I told this story to DeGrass Tyson a while back and never heard back of course, but a little while after he announced they had detected a blind spot in the asteroid detection array .. I said in 08 that we will soon see a rush for Mars, why mars?, it's as far away as they can get, this thing missed us by a minute, it is on an intersect course and if it hits not even the earth will remain intact such is its size and speed,

Nobody will ever see C/2024 S1 ever again. It fell apart in the Sun.

Haley Bopp was the best and most visible one in decades. Incredibly visible with the naked eye.

Also mark your calendar for C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) ⭐
Perihelion: January 13, 2025 (mag -2.0)
Closest approach to Earth: January 13, 2025 (mag -1.8)
Where to observe: Northern Hemisphere (before perihelion), Southern Hemisphere (after perihelion)
Visibility forecast: If we’re lucky, Comet C/2024 G3 might become visible to the naked eye, even in the daytime, by January 2025. However, it also might not survive perihelion and, even if it does, will be positioned quite close to the Sun in the sky.

I would like to say thank you. And that your English has made drastic improvements.
Your hard work is noticeable. Take care

Fascinating report, thank you 😻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌠

I kinda like the idea of viewing a fragmented comet. This should be a good one.

[nicolas_croce]

south hemisphere before perhielion time to watch? is it before sunrise?

[Katrina-dhcw]

Beautiful. I hope I don't miss it

Late Saturday afternoon, Oct 19, my wife and I saw 6 comets in the western sky.

[rojaha]

Hopefully the Sun's massive gravitational pull will pull it in

[joshuamatthew]

i have been seeing it with the nakedeye for about 4 days now

[naransiju]

Which time we can watch it in western India Gujarat?

[texassalt]

Just saw it yesterday right after sun set and was able to take a picture with my phone zoomed in 10x.

Thou give a sign that thou cometh, by ☄️comet.

Literally just saw a movie last weekend from 2020 (Greenland) about a fragmented comet that wasn’t supposed to hit Earth but oops! Their calculations were wrong and it was a planet killer. Should we be worried about this one?🤔😬

[FerchBran]

Can we see this one with the naked eye?
