1/ ☄️ #Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) is gracing our skies, and we’d like to share some amazing images from our Paranal Observatory in #Chile!

This stunning shot by our friend Yuri Beletsky, with the comet next to an Auxiliary Telescope, is today's Astronomy Picture of the Day. Congrats, Yuri!

A sunset photograph at an observatory. The colour of the sky changes from blue, almost purple, to golden at the horizon. There’s a white closed telescope dome with a spherical top. To its left, the comet stretches diagonally across almost the entire image, as if it had been painted on the sky with a gigantic brush. The tail of the comet is white and full of intricate filaments.
