“Comet G3 ATLAS over Uruguay” is copyrighted by Mauricio Salazar. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteComet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) displays a tail of dust and gas that stretches several times its apparent width. While a comet's nucleus is usually only a few kilometers across, its tail can become enormous when it nears the Sun. This image captures the comet's impressive tail over Uruguay.
