Comet A3 in the western sky, 16 October 2024

With a clear night at last I wandered down the road from home and into the quiet Guildhall Lane which has a good uninterrupted view west.

It took a little while of scanning the ever-darkening sky before I picked up the comet known as Comet A3 just left of due west. With only my phone with me I managed to snap a couple of pictures. Try to see it this week if you can because it won't be round again for another 80,000 years!
