Will THIS become the comet of the year if not decade? "6AC4721" doesn't even have a proper number or name but it is on a #Kreutz orbit that will bring it very close to the Sun in April - and was discovered already farther from the Sun than even Ikeya-Seki, whatever that means: https://www.facebook.com/groups/227002358661288/posts/1665380981490078/ and https://astronomynow.com/2026/01/16/potentially-bright-sungrazing-comet-discovered/ and https://x.com/JAtanackov/status/2012283238807482804 discuss the uncertain outcome of the adventure. In any case here is the comet last night: "Kreutz Comet 6AC4721 is currently brighter than expected,." write G. Rhemann and M. Jäger: "A deeper image from Namibia (Jan 16.91, 12“/3.6 12x120sec with Asi 6200) already shows a 2' coma and 85” coma in Pa 41. The total brightness measured with the Tycho Tracker was 16m5."

Gegensätze! 🥺
Häufig-Mitreise-Freund Hene in den Veloferien in Namibia (links) hat mir unbedingt die Auberge Mange-Grenouille in Le Bic, Quebec empfohlen. Leider weder temperatur-, noch wettergleich. 🤷♂️

In this 3 min video Tucker Carlson totally forgets that genocide is not something you speak of lightly...
Ahmed Eldin on substack (@ahmedeldin):
""Why call it genocide?" - Tucker Carlson
“Tucker, with all due respect — genocide isn’t a loaded term. It’s a crime.” - Francesca Albanese
Then she walks him thru Namibia, Armenia, Rwanda, Bosnia — and Gaza. A full-on masterclass he did NOT expect. "
