While the internet debates “aliens,” the Slooh community is capturing what’s really out there.

Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) just swung past the Sun, glowing green from C₂ with a dust tail and faint blue CO⁺ ion streak. Now Comet SWAN takes the stage. Just look up.

The Leonids peak early Nov 17, and this year brings dark skies. With only a slim waning crescent, you’ll have a clear view as meteors zip by at 44 miles per second, often leaving glowing green trails. Expect up to 15 per hour—perfect for late-night stargazing tonight!

☄️ Don’t sleep on Comet SWAN (C/2025 R2) — this long-period visitor, first spotted in Sept 2025, just swung by the Sun and is now heading back into the depths of space.
At ~150M km from Earth, it’s glowing a brilliant bluish-green! 💚

Great observation by Slooh member Emre!
