Peaks on the 21st

COMET ALERT!

 

A brand-new celestial visitor is lighting up our skies — Comet Lemmon (C/2025 A6) is rapidly brightening and has now reached the threshold of naked-eye visibility!

Over the coming week, the comet will climb higher in the northwest sky after sunset, glowing brighter each night as it journeys closer to the Sun.

 

How to See It:

 

Escape city lights for a darker sky

Head outside shortly after sunset

Look below and to the left of the Big Dipper — that’s where this icy wanderer awaits!

If you have binoculars, you might catch its faint greenish glow and the delicate arc of its tail — a breathtaking reminder of the Solar System’s timeless motion.

It actually peaks on the 22nd (after midnight) and it turns out that's on a new moon (yay) and it's also the peak of the Orionid meteor shower!  There are three comets and two meteor showers this month!
