In the article it says best chances to see it are this weekend (implying today and tomorrow), then says it'll be closest on Sep 17th, which is the following weekend. Which one is it?
- janzer 3y agoFrom the article: Nishimura, which has the scientific name C/2023 P1, will pass closest to the sun on 17 September. Closest to the sun, not earth. Also, while not an area I have much knowledge in, I believe it gets rather harder to view as the angle between it and the sun narrows.
