The chance to see a shooting star is only once in a lifetime. Astronomers say it is still possible.
The comet will be visible in the sky until October 19, after which it will gradually lose brightness and rise higher above the horizon. And already on October 20 it could only be observed through a telescope, Komsomolskaya Pravda reported.
Let's remember the comet C/2023 A3 Zijinshan that flew past the Earth, captured by the ATLAS device of Primorsky astrophotographer Anton Komlev. He posted photos of his success on his Telegram channel.
