今晚日落時分到戶外去看彗星吧! C/ 2023 A 3 (月神山-ATLAS)已在傍晚時分出現在北部地區的天空中。要看到這顆彗星,請在地平線較低的天空中向西望去。如果天空足夠晴朗和黑暗,您甚至不需要雙筒望遠鏡--在地平線上方約一小時的時間裡,就能看到微弱的彗尾。 圖為兩晚前在美國華盛頓特區林肯紀念堂紀念碑上空拍攝到的月琴山-ATLAS 彗星。 隨著日落時分一天天過去,彗星及其不斷變化的尾巴在天空中的位置應該會越來越高,但具體會有多亮、尾巴有多長,還只能猜測。 成長相簿: 2024 年的月神山-ATLAS 彗星
原文:Go outside at sunset tonight and see a comet! C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) has become visible in the early evening sky in northern locations to the unaided eye. To see the comet, look west through a sky with a low horizon. If the sky is clear and dark enough, you will not even need binoculars -- the faint tail of the comet should be visible just above the horizon for about an hour. Pictured, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS was captured two nights ago over the Lincoln Memorial monument in Washington, DC, USA. With each passing day at sunset, the comet and its changing tail should be higher and higher in the sky, although exactly how bright and how long its tails will be can only be guessed.
