The Comet, also known as Tsuchinshan-ATLAS came closest to Earth this past weekend. While over 43 million miles away, it can be visible to the eye. “It’s pretty rare to have an opportunity to see a comet by eye like I said I’ve been here almost twenty years and there have been three of them

Comet C/2023 A3 — known simply as Comet A3 — was first discovered last year and was first visible in the night sky earlier this month, with peak viewing from Oct. 16 through Oct. 20. The comet is projected to swing through our solar system again sometime between 80,000 years from now and never.

Comet C/2023 A3 will be visible in the sky over the next few days for more than an hour shortly after sunset each night. For those in Delaware, the sun sets around 6:25 p.m., so the best viewing starts around 7:10 p.m. The comet will be visible for about 90 minutes before it dips too low.
