C/2023 A3, also known as Tsuchinshan–ATLAS and considered “the comet of the century,” will appear in all its splendor in our sky during September and October 2024. Due to its characteristics, astronomers believe it will be exceptionally bright, similar to Halley’s comet in 1986 or NEOWISE in 2020.
Asteroid 2024 PT5 was first discovered on August 7, 2024, by the Asteroid Terrestrial-Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS). Measuring about 33 feet (10 meters) in diameter, this small asteroid will make a temporary loop around Earth starting on September 29, staying in orbit until November 25, 2024.
