It is nothing new for the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) to discover another comet — it has already found more than 1350. But the latest is a bit different – SOHO had spotted it ...
Astronomers using a fleet of world leading telescopes on the ground and in space have captured images of a periodic rocky near-Sun comet breaking apart. This is the first time such a comet has been ...
Comet C/2024 S1 (ATLAS) is no more. Now, thanks to the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a spacecraft jointly operated by NASA and the European Space Agency, we know for sure how and when ...
ESA and NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, or SOHO, saw a bright comet plunge toward the sun on Aug. 3-4, 2016, at nearly 1.3 million miles per hour. Comets are chunks of ice and dust that ...
The brightest comet of the year was spotted skimming just past the sun by a satellite orbiting our star. The comment, named Comet ATLAS (C/2024 G3), came within 8.3 million miles of the sun on January ...
Near-Sun object 323P/SOHO observed by the Subaru Telescope on December 21, 2020 (left) and CFHT on February 11, 2021 (right). 323P/SOHO on its way to perihelion is seen as a point source in the center ...
