New comet just showed up with some potential! Astronomers have spotted freshly discovered comet C/2026 A1 (MAPS)—and yes, there’s a chance it could become bright enough to see in daylight. Too early for hype, but definitely one to watch.

Aurora Alert!

SPACE WEATHER ALERT: The planetary K-index has reached a level of 6. A moderately strong G2-class geomagnetic storm is in progress. Updates: https://Spaceweather.com

This will likely not be strong enough for my area of Cbus OH but those in the Great Lakes area and Canada get cameras ready!

Thinking of the Blaze Star, a recurrent nova coming soon, I wonder how many historic moments were marked by such events.

Soon, a 'new' star will shine for 3 days before vanishing. This nova repeats every ~80 years, and recent observations show it's imminent.
