Who going to see the /comet/ this weekend?
>>2781266Neat. Thanks for the heads up anon.>For early risers, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS offers a rare skywatching >treat. Astronomers expect it to be especially vivid, possibly rivaling the>brightness of Jupiter in the night sky. As it passes near Earth, stargazers >can catch a glimpse of the comet by looking west about 45 minutes after>sunset. For those in the Northern Hemisphere, it will be visible until >Halloween, while observers in the Southern Hemisphere will have to wait >80,000 years for its next visit.Suck it Australia, New Zealand and South America.
>>2781289>For early risers>45 minutes after sunset???fake AI article or what
>>2781311It was in the southern hemisphere morning sky. It's passing the sun today. In a couple days or will be visible in the northern hemisphere evening sky.
>>2781311Sorry for being lazy anon. I pasted the section out of context because of the northern hemisphere viewing portion is what matters to me. It was the Brave Browser data aggregator--not really AI but people keep erroneously calling it that. AI doesn't exist, we have simulated AI systems but people don't know shit about computers (or how the brain works) so they want to pretend a reinforcement pattern mapping system is intelligence. True AI can not exist without entangled quantum computing systems and even then it's not the same as what's simulated on silicon.
>>2781266not real
me fo sho
>>2781266I know I've spent way too much time on this shithole website when "flaring" has a very different meaning to me than the one intended in the article...
I peeped it last night, disappointingly missed it at its brightest. Also having a basically a full moon wasnt doing any favors. Shit was incredibly faint but you could still make out the streak
I saw it today at 1200m elevation, no light pollution. Shame my gopro sucks at this but better than nothing.
>>2784089Nice. How come no moon though?
>>2784118it was behind
>>2784119Fair, i should clarify. How come its not illuminating any of the foreground? I would assume you had to take a slow exposure to get that clarity as even the milky way is practically invisible when the moon is at 86% full, but if that was the case then the foreground would look bright
>>2784089sweet shot still anon
>>2784125this is the moon, all pictures have 30 second exposure
>>2781266
>>2784089Beautiful, especially as a comparison to galactic clouds. I used to watch meteor showers through an F1.6 near-infrared security camera I found in a wastebasket in the office where I worked. (the only thing wrong with it was a loose Mylar ribbon cable) No comets around at the time, but I bet they're pretty bright against the background via such equipment.
>>2781266>once in a lifetime>weekend of the 8thDid i miss it? Are they gonna do a rerun?
>>2784160>>2784963thanks bros, here is one more
>>2784089Man, that's beautiful.
