NASA and ESA's SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft snapped a video of the comet as it passed three times closer to our star than the orbit of Mercury, and ten times closer than ...

G3 (ATLAS) blazed past the Sun, captured in stunning detail by the SOHO spacecraft. Scientists used its passage to study how ...

Update, Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2024: images from NASA’s SOHO Observatory suggest that comet ATLAS (C/2024 S1) did not survive its close encounter with the sun, and is presumed disintegrated.

In the photo from the space station, the comet is captured just above Earth’s horizon, which is illuminated by a bright light — also known as airglow — that occurs in the planet’s upper atmosphere ...

Jamie Carter is an award-winning reporter who covers the night sky. NASA’s SOHO Solar Observatory has spotted the ultra-bright tail of a comet in the sun's glare destined to be a naked-eye ...

It has already put on an incredible show as the third brightest comet ever observed by NASA's space-based solar observatory SOHO, and has even been imaged by keen astrophotographers in broad daylight.

Observed by NASA and ESA’s Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), the comet’s tail extended dramatically as it encountered intense solar winds, providing a unique opportunity to study the ...

Over the weekend, comet C/2024 (ATLAS) made a grand appearance in images from the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). The comet will continue to blaze through SOHO’s view for the ...

From Jan. 11 to 15, 2025, a bright comet surged through images from the ESA (European Space Agency) and NASA SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft. Called C/2024 G3 (ATLAS), the ...
