Comet seen once in 80,000 years and Cox's Bazar in one frame! This photo of comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) was taken by a photographer named Zubair Kaolin from Inani Beach in Cox's Bazar. The photo was taken on October 14. Although the photo was taken at night, the brightness of the moon and the long exposure make it look like it was taken during the day.
The diameter of the comet's head is about 209,000 kilometers and the length of the tail is about 29 million kilometers. The comet was seen with the naked eye in different parts of the world for several days in October. It will also be visible with telescopes for some time next month. This comet was discovered separately in 2023 by scientists from China and Africa. The comet is very rare. And according to NASA, this comet will not be seen again for 80,000 years!
