Comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon Perihelion - Amazing Image! (2026)

Witness the beauty of Comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon as it gracefully passes by at perihelion on November 8, 2025. This celestial event marks the closest approach of the comet to the Sun, offering a breathtaking sight for astronomers. The image, captured by the Virtual Telescope Project 2.0, showcases the comet's magnificent tail, even though it was positioned low on the western horizon. The robotic unit, ARTEC250+Paramount ME+C3Pro61000EC, located in Manciano, Italy, under the darkest skies of the Italian peninsula, remotely snapped 8 and 16-second exposures, creating a stunning sigma-clipping combination. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to observe this comet's farewell to Northern Hemisphere observers. For those eager to support the Virtual Telescope Project, exclusive hi-quality images, including the record-setting 2018 total lunar eclipse above the Colosseum, are available for donors. Join us in capturing the wonders of the cosmos!
