Oddbean new post about login | logout No 😂 they are real. I took the family out and we all saw them. They were so pretty. Very bright here.
So cool!! I have to find a way to see them live. But we are not that high north.
You may get another chance tomorrow or even later tonight. And there's a chance that we'll see G5 extreme solar weather. If that's the case you'll be able to see it.
When are you coming up for NV?
North Virginia. I need to find a site that shows where they can be visible from.
Haha, sorry. I know you're from NoVA. I meant when are you coming up to Nostr Valley. Maybe you'll have a chance when your up here.
lol. Sorry that was a brain fart. Traveling Saturday morning, and driving back at night.
Gotcha. If you're going to be awake for a while, check between 11pm and 2am. That's when they'll be at their maximum. I would guess that's you're highest chance if you are in an area with minimal light pollution. We have a chance of seeing a comet Saturday evening 🥹
"It'll be this fuzzy circle with a long tail stretching away from it," said Sally Brummel, planetarium manager at the Bell Museum in Minnesota.
Comet Tsuchinshan-Atlas should be bright enough to see with the naked eye, but binoculars and telescopes will give a better view.
