Ten years on from 'The Force Awakens', we look back at what's gone right and what's gone wrong.
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was first detected on July 1st 2025 as it approached the Sun. Multiple telescopes, including the Very Large Telescope, the Hubble Space Telescope, and the James Webb Space Telescope have taken turns observing the comet as it continued on its hyperbolic trajectory out of the Solar System. It reached solar conjunction on October 21st, and on October 29th it came closest to the Sun.
