Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS: new image – 27 June 2024.
We continued monitoring comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS while it was visible in the sky from our observatory.
Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS: 27 June 2024.
The image above comes from the sigma clipping combination of 11, 120-second unguided exposures, remotely taken with the ARTEC250+Paramount ME+C3Pro61000EC robotic unit available as part of the Virtual Telescope Project facility in Manciano, Italy. The telescope tracked at the motion rates of the comet.
It s interesting to compare images collected during our follow-up activities.
Comet C/2023 A3 was discovered on 9 Jan. 2023. Since it was announced, this icy world showed the potentially to reach naked eye visibility late in Sept. 2024, with chances to be remarkable around Oct. 9. At the moment, the comet is showing in very good health, with good hopes to have a nice show.
We will continue following up this promising comet and will schedule a live feed in due time.
