Beaver Moon 2025: November’s Supermoon Spectacle Illuminates Sky and Storytelling

Don’t Miss the Beaver Moon – 2025’s Brightest Supermoon Peaks This Week

The Brightest Supermoon of 2025 Is Here Skywatchers are in for a treat as the year’s brightest full moon takes to the sky this week. November’s full moon – known as the Beaver Moon – will reach its peak illumination on the morning of November 5, 2025, and it’s no ordinary full moon. It’s a “supermoon”, meaning the moon is near its closest point to Earth in its orbit during its full phase. This makes the lunar disc appear a bit larger and a lot more luminous than usual. In fact, this Beaver Moon supermoon will be so luminous that

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists with Surprising Bright Outburst and Ancient Origins

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists with Surprising Bright Outburst and Ancient Origins

A Visitor From Beyond the Solar System In July 2025, astronomers discovered something extraordinary: a dim, fuzzy comet hurtling toward the inner solar system on a path not bound to the Sun. Follow-up observations confirmed this object – now named 3I/ATLAS (for the ATLAS survey that found it) – was on a hyperbolic trajectory, meaning it came from interstellar space and would soon depart forever Nasa Wikipedia. The “3I” designation marks it as the third interstellar object ever observed, after the asteroid-like 1I/ʻOumuamua and comet 2I/Borisov Nasa. Unlike ʻOumuamua (which was small, oddly shaped, and showed no coma), 3I/ATLAS immediately

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists – Brightening, Blue Glow & Mystery Acceleration

A Mysterious Visitor from Beyond the Solar System When astronomers spotted a faint new object moving rapidly through the outer solar system in July 2025, they quickly realized it was not an ordinary comet. Its extra-high velocity and open-ended (hyperbolic) trajectory indicated it was an interstellar interloper – an object arriving from far outside the Sun’s domainscientificamerican.com. Officially designated 3I/ATLAS (“I” for interstellar, “3” as the third of its kind, and ATLAS for the survey telescope that found ittheguardian.com), this comet has since commanded the full attention of the astronomical community. “We’ve never had an object like this to study

Meet the Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS – A Visitor From Beyond When astronomers spotted a faint new comet on July 1, 2025, they quickly realized it was no ordinary comet. Its official designation, 3I/ATLAS, tells the tale: “3I” means it’s the third interstellar object ever recorded, and “ATLAS” credits the Asteroid Terrestrial-Impact Last Alert System survey telescope (in Río Hurtado, Chile) that discovered itscientificamerican.com. In the days following discovery, observatories around the world rushed to calculate its orbit – and the results were stunning. Unlike normal comets bound in elliptical orbits around the Sun, 3I/ATLAS was on a one-way hyperbolic trajectory,

Double Meteor Shower Spectacle: Draconid and Orionid Displays Will Light Up October’s Night Sky

Meteor Mania Incoming: Supermoon, Fireballs and Aurora Alerts in Early November 2025

Major Meteor Showers Lighting Up Early November Early November’s sky features long-running meteor showers rather than any single dramatic outburst. The Southern Taurids (active late Sept–Nov 12, peak ~Nov 5) and Northern Taurids (Oct 13–Dec 2, peak ~Nov 9) are joined by the annual Leonid stream (active Nov 3–Dec 2, peak Nov 17). AMS notes that these two Taurid sources and the Leonids “keep the skies active” in November, making it one of the better months for northern observersamsmeteors.org. In practice, the Taurids each produce only a handful of meteors per hour under dark skies, but many are fireballs. AccuWeather meteorologist Brian Lada explains that the Taurids will

Beaver Supermoon 2025: Get Ready for the Biggest, Brightest Full Moon of the Year

What Is a Supermoon? A supermoon is not an official astronomical term, but rather a popular way to describe a full moon that coincides with the Moon’s perigee (its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit). As NASA explains, the Moon’s orbit is oval-shaped, so full moons can occur at varying distances. When a full moon happens near perigee, the Moon appears larger and brighter in our skylivescience.com. In fact, NASA notes that the full Moon can look up to ~14% bigger and 30% brighter at perigee than at its farthest point (apogee)livescience.com. Such perigee full moons (“supermoons”) typically

Ancient Alien Visitor? Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Blazes Through Our Solar System

A Visitor From Beyond the Solar System On July 1, 2025, astronomers in Chile spotted a faint, fast-moving object that immediately stood out. Follow-up measurements showed it was on a hyperbolic orbit – not bound to our Sun – confirming it came from interstellar spacets2.tech. The discovery was officially designated 3I/ATLAS, where “3I” denotes the third Interstellar object ever observed, and “ATLAS” credits the NASA-funded Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System survey that found itts2.tech.

Discovery and Designation Comet 3I/ATLAS was discovered on July 1, 2025 by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) survey telescope at Río Hurtado, Chileesa.int. ATLAS – a NASA-funded sky survey designed to spot incoming asteroids – detected a faint magnitude ~18 object moving against the starry backgroundras.ac.uk. Initially catalogued as C/2025 N1 (ATLAS) under comet naming conventions, the object raised immediate excitement because its orbit did not appear bound to the Sunts2.tech. Within days, astronomers determined the new comet was on a highly hyperbolic trajectory, not a closed ellipse like ordinary comets. In August 2025 the International Astronomical Union confirmed
