Data Acquisition Method: Personal Telescope Setup

Description and Details: We are pleased to share our image of the current comet visible in the Northern Hemisphere, C/2025 A6 (Lemmon). The tail is changing rapidly, and each day it looks like a completely new comet. At the moment it can be found in the constellation Lynx, steadily making its way toward the Sun. It will reach perihelion on November 8, 2025, and will pass closest to Earth around October 20–21, 2025. With an orbital period of about 1,350 years, this is a once-in-a-millennium visitor — so unless you have a time machine handy, this is your only chance to see it.
