The new comet is visible in the sky, C/2025 F2 (Swan), and can be discovered low in the east just before the twilight of the Dawn. It is located just as a well -known star pattern or asterism called the large Pegasus square. It is illuminating approximately +8, which means it is too weak to see the naked eye.
The reports reported that the Minor Planet Center officially identified the Swan25f comet as C/2025 F2 (Swan) 8 April. Swan is a tool designed to study the Sun by mapping the solar wind variations of captured paintings at the end of March, in which Australian amateur astronomer Michael Mattiazzo saw.
When the comet Hale-Bopp was found 30 years ago, amateur astronomers detected most of the comets, scan all over the telescopes, and searched them looking for them. Nowadays, the vast majority of comets are discovered by the fields of binoculars of robotic surveys such as Panstarrs and Atlas. Comet F2 was discovered using a combination of these two.
Numerous observers of comet, who devote paintings captured by the swan (solar victory of anisotropy) with the camera on board the Solar Observatory NASA, independently saw what they considered a comet that moves through them.
Soon the comet was seen and visible in the sky. They provided him with the informal name ‘Comet Swan F2’ while they waited for it to be confirmed and officially called.
Observers around the world get up before sunrise to swing their telescopes and cameras towards Pegasus, hoping to see and display this new heavenly visitor.
Appearance
The comet is currently relatively small, visually much softer than the nearby Globular M15 cluster and appears through binoculars as a slightly blurred star. However, images with long exposure captured binoculars reveal a slender, whip tail, which extends throughout the sky at least a degree, except for the live green shade of the comet. Comet F2 is soon ready to leave the Great Pegas Square and continue their journey to the neighboring Andromeda Constelment.
What lies in front of the C/2025 F2 comet (Swan)?
According to reports, the comet C/2025 F2 (Swan) is expected to achieve Perihelion, its closest access to the sun, May 1, 2025. At that time it will be visible in the evening sky in the constellation Taurus and is expected to reach a peak of approximately +4.
In May 2025, Comet C/2025 F2 (Swan) will look low in the northwest twilight just after sunset, located near the stellar Pleiades cluster before it moves around it to pass through the neighboring Hyades cluster.
