"NGC 6960: The Witch's Broom Nebula"

Around 10,000 years ago, a brilliant light briefly lit up the night sky—now known to be a supernova 🌟. Its aftermath is the Veil Nebula, a vast cloud of expanding debris. This image focuses on its western part, NGC 6960, also called the Witch’s Broom Nebula 🧹. The explosion sent shock waves through space, energizing surrounding gas and dust. Captured with narrow-band filters, the glowing filaments appear like rippling sheets, clearly showing red hydrogen and blue-green oxygen 💫. Located about 1400 light-years away in Cygnus, the Witch’s Broom stretches roughly 35 light-years across. The bright star 52 Cygni also appears in the frame, but it’s unrelated to the ancient blast ✨

"Comet Lemmon Brightens"

Comet Lemmon is growing brighter and shifting into the northern morning sky 🌄. Alongside SWAN25B and ATLAS, it’s now the third comet visible with binoculars or long-exposure photography 🔭. Discovered earlier this year, Lemmon is still approaching the inner Solar System. It will swing around the Sun on November 8, but first comes closest to Earth—about half the Earth-Sun distance—on October 21 🌍☀️. While comet brightness is tricky to predict, some forecasts suggest it might become visible to the naked eye 👀. Best viewing is in the predawn hours until mid-October, after which it may also appear in the evening sky. A recent image from Texas captured its split, fast-changing ion tail 🌠

"Two Camera Comets in One Sky"

Though they seem to be racing side by side, comets C/2025 K1 ATLAS (left) and C/2025 R2 SWAN (right) only appeared close together by coincidence in a photo taken last week from Réunion Island 🇷🇪. ATLAS, the dimmer of the two, is moving toward the Sun and should reach its brightest in early October—though still only visible with long-exposure photography 📷. SWAN25B, the brighter comet, is now moving away from the Sun but will make its closest pass to Earth in mid-October, possibly becoming visible to the naked eye 👀. Both comets feature a greenish glow from expelled gas and sport ion tails streaming away from the Sun ☀️.
