Tengrinews.kz - The comet known as C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan–ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth this Saturday, according to CNN.
According to scientists, this may be the last time the comet can be seen in the night sky for the next 80,000 years. NASA reported that the celestial body is making its first documented pass by our planet.
"It’s not going to zing across the sky like a meteor. It will just appear to hang there, and it will slowly change position from night to night. If you can see (the comet) with your unaided eye, (using) the binoculars will knock your socks off," said Bill Cooke, lead of NASA’s Meteoroid Environment Office at the Marshall Space Flight Center.

It is noted that the comet will appear as a bright fireball with a long, elongated tail in the dark sky. On Saturday, the comet will come within approximately 71 million kilometers of Earth.
Information appeared online that in mid-October, residents of Kazakhstan will be able to see a comet. Is this really the case? Details in this article.
