October’s supermoon pairs with a comet for a special nighttime spectacle.
From npub1h9em3v9p0wmde9u7alfr79jk4hzje3mdx7gkpzp36yy64lf4tjdsr0r7yr (npub1h9e…r7yr): "The third of four supermoons this year, it will be 222,055 miles (357,364 kilometers) away Wednesday night, making it seem even bigger and brighter than in August and September. It will reach its full lunar phase Thursday. In a twist of cosmic fate, a comet is in the neighborhood. Discovered last year, comet Tsuchinshan-Atlas is now prominent in the Northern Hemisphere after wowing stargazers in the Southern Hemisphere."
