The best vantage point for observing Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) is in space. Which is where astronaut Don Pettit took this stunning photograph from, perched with his camera behind a window in the NASA ISS at ~400 km altitude, on Jan 11.

Earlier this week, Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) made its closest approach to the Sun.

While doing so, it made a dramatic appearance sweeping through the wide-field LASCO C3 coronagraph of the ESA/NASA SOHO mission over a few days.

Here’s my take, a triplet of Deep Red, Orange, & Blue filter images taken over an hour around 09:00UTC on 14 January, as an RGB composite.

A picture of a comet with several tails seen in the field of view of a spacecraft camera. There is a black stick with a round circle at the end of it which blocks the Sun, allowing faint nearby things to be seen. The image has greens and purples in it due to the shifts and rotations introduced to make the moving comet line up in the three sequential black and white images added to make the colour combination.

What a beauty! This is comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) passing through the field of view of the LASCO C3 coronagraph.

It wasn't for certain whether it would survive it's closest approach to the sun on January 13th, but it did and delivered us a spectacular show!

C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) from SOHO LASCO C3

Comet C/2024 G3 as seen by the SOHO LASCO C3 coronagraph. Credit: ESA / NASA / LASCO C3 / Simeon Schmauß I processed this from the raw data which looks a lot different - it's dominated by sunglare, so it's hard to see the stars or the solar wind.
