Comet Tsuchinshan-Atlas can be observed in France since Friday October 11, 2024. Which gives rise to magnificent photos, published on social networks. Here is a selection.
The “comet of the century”? It is true that she had not passed through the neighborhood for 80,000 years. Comet Tsuchinshan-Atlas has been visible in the northern hemisphere since last Friday, October 11, 2024.

Astrophotographers, professionals and amateurs alike, have a field day (when the conditions are right!). Here are some of the most beautiful photos published on social networks.
