Comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon was spotted in the sky over Ukraine on the night of October 21. In particular, it was possible to take pictures of a unique comet in the city of Reni, Odesa region.
Comet Lemmon, discovered on January 3, 2025, became the object of attention of astronomers and lovers of celestial phenomena after its maximum approach to the Earth last night made it possible to take impressive photos, in particular, in the city of Reni, Odesa region.
The comet’s orbital period is approximately 1,350 years, and its closest approach to the Sun is expected to occur on November 8, 2025, at a distance of approximately 79 million km.
Last night was the closest approach to Earth, making the comet visible to the naked eye in the evening sky.
At first, this comet was mistaken for an asteroid, but data analysis revealed the presence of a dense coma. Later, it was possible to record a short tail.
In the summer of 2025, the comet temporarily “disappeared” in bright sunlight, but on July 2 it reappeared in the morning sky – noticeably brighter than astronomers had predicted.
On November 2, the comet will cross the celestial equator, continuing its long journey through the solar system.
Earlier astronomers recorded the third ever confirmed object that came to us from interstellar space. Comet named 3I/ATLAS discovered on July 1 with the help of a telescope ATLAS in Chile
We will remind that NASA will open access to space observations and its missions on Netflix.
In addition, scientists named an unexpected cause of earthquakes on Mars.
