The final Supermoon of 2025 rises on Thu, Dec 4 at 23:15 UTC!
Also known as the Cold Moon, it marks the arrival of long, dark winter nights. This is the last of three supermoons this year, so the Moon may look slightly bigger and brighter.

While the internet debates “aliens,” the Slooh community is capturing what’s really out there.
Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) just swung past the Sun, glowing green from C₂ with a dust tail and faint blue CO⁺ ion streak. Now Comet SWAN takes the stage. Just look up.

The Leonids peak early Nov 17, and this year brings dark skies. With only a slim waning crescent, you’ll have a clear view as meteors zip by at 44 miles per second, often leaving glowing green trails. Expect up to 15 per hour—perfect for late-night stargazing tonight!

☄️ Don’t sleep on Comet SWAN (C/2025 R2) — this long-period visitor, first spotted in Sept 2025, just swung by the Sun and is now heading back into the depths of space.
At ~150M km from Earth, it’s glowing a brilliant bluish-green! 💚
