Pochemu u komety ATLAS takie raznocvetnye hvosty? Na proshloi nedele kometa C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) proletela na minimal'nom rasstoyanii ot Solnca, kotoroe men'she radiusa orbity Merkuriya, i sil'no poyarchala. K sozhaleniyu, kometa nahodilas' na takom malen'kom uglovom rasstoyanii ot Solnca, chto lyudyam bylo ochen' trudno ee uvidet'. Odnako ee smog nablyudat' kosmicheskii apparat NASA SOHO.
