Today, on Women in Science Day, we remember Maria Winkelmann — a pioneering astronomer who, from Berlin, discovered a comet on April 21, 1702. She became the first woman to achieve this feat, and her perseverance left a lasting mark on early astronomy 👇 cometografia.es/maria-winkel... #Astronomy

📸☄️ Comet C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS) keeps brightening, now close to magnitude 12,5. Image taken on February 8 under extreme conditions, with the comet only 16° above the horizon during nautical twilight 🧵 🔗 cometografia.es/2025r3-panst... #astronomy

📸☄️ My first image of comet 24P/Schaumasse during its 15th apparition, with an estimated brightness of magnitude 9. It shows a large 12' coma and a short dust tail, imaged on January 29, 2026, using a remote telescope. 🔗 cometografia.es/24p-schaumas... #astronomy

☄️🪙 Divus Iulius comet coin After Julius Caesar’s assassination in 44 BC, a comet seen over Rome was believed to represent his deified soul. Augustus used this celestial event to legitimize his power and divine lineage. 🧵

☄️ This is how comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos) looks from the Southern Hemisphere. By mid-February, it will start to be visible from the Northern Hemisphere. More information here 👇 ℹ️ cometografia.es/cometas-visi... Image: Gerald Rhemann. #astronomy

☄️Comets in February 🔹 C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos) surprises 😮 with a long tail, at mag 7 and visible with binoculars 🔹 C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) holds at mag 9.5, suitable for small telescopes 🔭 🔹 24P/Schaumasse fading past mag 9.5, requiring larger telescopes 🦾 ℹ️ cometografia.es/cometas-visi... #astronomy

It’s leaving forever. It departs the Solar System toward a region between the constellations of Gemini and Orion, heading for other parts of our galaxy. My farewell to 3I/ATLAS, and to Avi… until the next interstellar visitor 👇 cometografia.es/cometas-visi... Image: Roland Fichtl. #astronomy

Comet C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS), currently at magnitude 15.4, promises some excitement for April dawns, when it may become visible with binoculars. #astronomy

Periodic comet 24P/Schaumasse is near its peak brightness (~mag 9.5) and can be observed with small telescopes 🔭 It is visible during January from both hemispheres, best placed late at night in the north and before dawn in the south. ☄️ 👉 cometografia.es/cometas-visi... Image: Rolando Ligustri

In a few days, comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos) will emerge from solar conjunction and begin to be observable with binoculars—first from the Southern Hemisphere and later from the Northern. It will be the brightest comet at the start of 2026 ℹ️ cometografia.es/cometas-visi... Image: Dídac Mesa. #astronomy

🚨 Newly discovered object, provisional 6AC4721, has been identified as a Kreutz-group sungrazing comet. In mag. 18, despite being very faint, it shows activity beyond 2 AU. Perihelion is expected in early April 2026. Likely to disintegrate, but scientifically intriguing 🔭 Image: A.Hale, LCO-SAAO.

New 2.0 m TTT3 telescope images of comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) suggest a possible nucleus fragmentation. Between Oct 19 and Nov 2, the once-symmetric central condensation became elongated, revealing a distinct secondary component — evidence the nucleus may be splitting. Credits: ttt.iac.es, tst.iac.es

☄️Comets in November Binocular-visible C2025 A6 Lemmon still shines at mag 4, and C2025 R2 SWAN at 7.5 — both fading. Interstellar comet 3I ATLAS reappeared brighter at mag 10 observable with small telescopes 🔭. C2025 K1 ATLAS survived perihelion appears strange More 👇 cometografia.es/cometas-visi...

I’ve made a short video showing comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) as it passed perihelion in November 8, 2025 — which, by the way, it has survived. It was observed through the LASCO-C3 coronagraph aboard the SOHO solar space telescope, and I think it went largely unnoticed. #astronomy #comet

Going back and forth with the SWAN comet images full of donuts... This morning I had a celestial inspiration — remember the misframed shots I took the day before? What if... they could be used to build a synthetic flat...? 🤔 ⚙️⚙️⚙️⚙️ Voilà! It works! 🎉 #astronomy #comet #swan #astrophotography

☄️Cometas en Septiembre, actualización 🔄 El recién descubierto cometa C/2025 R2 (SWAN) sorprende siendo visible con binoculares en magnitud 7 y acercándose a la Tierra. Además tenemos el C/2025 A6 (Lemmon), C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) y el interestelar 3I/ATLAS 👇 cometografia.es/cometas-visi...

I’ve got the L and RGB masters ready from yesterday’s shots of comet #SWAN25B. Let’s see what I can do with all those donuts 🍩 caused by overexposure 🌄 that the flats 💡 can’t fix. As for the scratches, let’s not even mention them — that’ll be half an hour of work courtesy of Eloncio.

🚨 New comet in the sky! and new post in my blog 📣 SWAN25B, discovered by Vladimir Bezugly in SOHO images, is already visible with binoculars and approaching 🌞☄️🔭🌍 Find all the details and how to locate it 👇 ℹ️ cometografia.es/nuevo-cometa... #astronomy #comet #SWAN25B

🚨 New bright comet SWAN25B ☄️ at mag 7.4 with a >1.7° ion tail! In Virgo, visible after sunset from the Southern Hemisphere 🌍 (very hard from the North). Orbit still uncertain. Imaged it from Atacama—coma slipped out 😅 but the huge tail is clear. Tomorrow I’ll try again 🔭 and share more! 😉 #astronomy

📸 In the early hours of August 30 I captured my first image of comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) ☄️ It shows surprising activity: magnitude 11 with a striking green coma. Excited to keep observing its evolution in the coming days 🔭 ℹ️ cometografia.es/2025a6-lemmo... #astronomy #comet #astrpphotography

And here is the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS that I captured last week from home. I was only able to stack 7 frames so that the nearby star wouldn’t interfere and to be able to measure the comet’s brightness. At magnitude 15.4 with a coma of 0.6 arcminutes ℹ️ cometografia.es/cometas-visi... #astronomy

Se lo van a tener que mirar bien en @bsky.app si no quieren cagarla. Está lleno de perfiles falsos. Se lo curran más simulando cuentas verdaderas, pero no cuela...

📸 On Aug 21 I also imaged comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) ☄️ from home. Poor transparency and wildfire smoke ❤️‍🔥😢 but still showing a 1.5′ coma and 5.5′ tail in a field with small galaxies 🌀 between Serpens and Hercules 👇 ℹ️ cometografia.es/2025k1-atlas... #astronomy #comet #astrophotography

☄️ Comets in September 🔭 Comet 2025A6 Lemmon with binoculars, and visible to the naked eye in October? 👀 Is 2025K1 ATLAS disintegrating on its way to the Sun? 🌞 Will the interstellar 3I ATLAS attack us with turbolasers? ⚡️ All the answers (and much more) here 👇 cometografia.es/cometas-visi...

📸 Imaged comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) ☄️ on August 21, near the star 9 Herculis 🌟. Shining at mag 12.5, with a greenish 2′ coma and a ~20′ tail. It’s heading toward perihelion in October, with a high risk of disintegration ⚠️ ℹ️ cometografia.es/2025k1-atlas... #astronomy #cometwatch #comet #astrophotography

The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS barely changed between July 20 and August 15: a bit brighter (mag 16.5) and a slightly larger. Its evolution is slower than expected, though it could still increase in activity and become visible in amateur telescopes🔭. These are my first comet photometry using Tycho.

📸 I photographed comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) ☄️ again on July 21. Since my previous image, in just 15 days it gained a magnitude and its tail stretched to 3.5'. It's now entering the Milky Way 🌌, in Vulpecula 🦊. Still getting more interesting❗️🔭👇 ℹ cometografia.es/2025k1-atlas...

☄️ Comets in August The scene starts to get exciting with the arrival of comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS), which will brighten quickly throughout August, reaching magnitude 11 — within reach for astrophotography and visual through medium-sized telescopes 🔭. Full details here 👇 cometografia.es/cometas-visi...

☄️ Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is the oldest ever observed — over 7.6 billion years old. It may develop a tail and become visible in amateur telescopes 🔭 ℹ️ Details, recent images, and visibility info here 👇 cometografia.es/3i-atlas-vis... #astronomy #comet #interstellar #3IATLAS #cometwatch

📷 Comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) This comet continues to brighten rapidly. I imaged it last night at magnitude ~14, showing a 3.5-arcminute ion tail. If the current trend holds, it could reach magnitude 8 by October — possibly becoming visible in binoculars from dark skies. #astronomy #cometwatch #comet
