Yay, I caught the comet! I'm in Houston and could not see C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS).by eye, but on my phone in a 4 second exposure you can just barely see it above the building.
That is CRAZY! Look at all the city light! Amazing job catching those itsy bitsy particles of light from the comet! Wow!
It'll be better to see next week in TX with the moon setting earlier and the comet setting later.
Gives me hope of a capture from Boston in a few nights!
NICE!! ☄️
I am impressed that it can be visible in urban conditions. For once over here (St-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!, a bit North of Maine), we had clear enough skies for it.
Yeah, with clouds and weather and all, it's finicky :-)
A bit inconsiderate that they wouldn’t turn the lights off in Houston House so you could get a better photo 🫤
Last night driving home I thought to myself, what a weird persistent contrail. Was it a rocket from Vandenberg? It's not dissipating (it was a long drive). OMG IT'S A COMET :D
