Discovered last June, Comet C/2020 M3 (Atlas) is closest to Earth - millions of miles away - on Saturday, November 14, 2020. It's in an easy-to-find location, if you have a dark sky. Charts and photos here.

The current comet is ATLAS C/2020 M3. I think I saw it this am in the 10x70s just northwest of Orion’s top. Large, very low surface brightness; I saw no nucleus.

The one in the video was C/2019 Y4. It was likely a Kreutz sungrazer. When those don’t simply crumble like that one did, they tend to give brief but spectacular displays.

That's the one I've been chasing down here. Initially I was using a 36mm 2" eye piece and a neb filter to check out orion when I saw something just outa field of view.....I had to go to my charts to figure out what it was.....lol. After I switched over to a comet filter is when I really came out.....chased it last night as well, since orion for me come up after 9pm...
 
Another I've been chasing is Kappa Cassiopeiae....otherwise know as a rogue star some people might call it a runaway star in Cassiopeiae constellation......

I had not considered ZeroG weed.

Weed in space is going to be a thing now | TechCrunch

Scientists interested in cannabis as a subject for pharmaceutical studies may find an unlikely new home for their research into the plant, its byproducts
