“Comet G3 ATLAS Setting over a Chilean Hill” is copyrighted by Gabriel Muñoz. 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 appears to set over a hill in this time-lapse video. The comet itself is not moving significantly; Earth's rotation creates the illusion of movement. This sequence was captured on January 22 from Chile. Comet ATLAS has been a bright sight in the Southern Hemisphere's evening skies.
