Hello folks. This October, a comet by the name Tsuchinshan–ATLAS entered the inner solar system and is visible from Earth. Now, I did not have a chance to see the comet due to light pollution and I do not get outside that much. However, the images of the comet show just how beautiful our solar system is. The comet originated from the very edge of the solar system in the Oort Cloud and is made of ancient ice and rock. My guys, @sjastro and @Vambram may like this, as we are both into space. The orbital period of this comet could be 80,000 years.
