NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Comet Lemmon Brightens” is copyrighted by Victor Sabet & Julien De Winter. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Comet Lemmon, C/2025 A6, is growing brighter and is now visible in the morning northern skies, joining two other comets. Discovered earlier this year, it's still inbound towards the inner Solar System. The comet will pass closest to Earth on October 21, at about half the Earth-Sun distance, before rounding the Sun on November 8. Its increasing brightness makes it an exciting target for observation.
