The 1Km Asteroid 1997 NC1 is getting closer to the Earth and the closest approach will be on June 27th. Weather permitting i'll be sharing the live views from my 16" telescope with you. This picture shows the predicted path of this asteroid as seen from my observatory in Algarve, Portugal, EU. It will come from the left (SE) towards the right (S) crossing just below Ophiuchus constellation. Yellow mark is the closest point to us. I'm also actively monitoring for any deviation in the path of it. We don't want 1km of rock hitting the Earth without warning. Just in case... #asteroid #1997NC1 #NEO #MPC
Asteroid 2026 JH2 still very faint on Sunday. It will start to get brighter as it gets closer to our planet and you'll watch it live with my telescope :) Nasa coordinates are correct and the condition code lowered to 7 which still is very uncertain. We expect it to get better today, Monday, as it has more observations. Mine were reported to the MPC Minor Planet Center. No impact is expected, only a flyby. #asteroid2026jh2 #2026jh2 #asteroid #neo #mpc #space #astronomy
It would be great to see in detail these mysterious pictures Artemis 2 astronauts were selecting in their tablet right after the Moon flyby. Will they show us?
The great comet C/2026 A1 MAPS today. Very hard to capture, it's very low in the sky but now getting much brighter. It will likely explode near the Sun on April 4th at only 160,000 km above the Sun’s surface (~0.0057 AU or ~855,000 km from the Sun’s center). Live stacked with a 16" Dobsonian Telescope on March 11th. Greenish tint visible and a brighter nucleus.
If you love UFO search you might be interested in participate as a volunteer in @ProfAviLoeb@GalileoProject1 . They have millions of sky pictures and they'll give exclusive access to the one's interested in finding UAP's on them. Here's the link https://t.co/URHqtYLw5m #UAP
The UFO i captured live and let me crazy for 2 weeks it's not a Satellite or an Asteroid but with the help of another astronomer and very good person i found a match after extending the search to space junk. It's TITAN 3C TRANSTAGE ROCKET STAGE from 1964. Case closed but i will keep searching for extraterrestrial objects. The truth is out there and should be revealed to the people!
3I/ATLAS keep surprising everyone despite the manipulative media. Last live stream while i was pointing my telescope to it, this weird movement was seen by the audience. I didn't notice but they warned me. I have no explanation for this and I'll keep monitoring it closely. #3iatlas
