Comet 12P Pons-Brooks takes center stage this Spring. Something is definitely up with the 12th periodic comet in the catalog. We’re talking about Comet 12P Pons-Brooks‚ set to reach the first of two perihelia for the 21st century this Spring. And the timing couldn’t be better‚ as the comet will also sit near the Sun just two weeks prior during the total solar eclipse of April 8th 2024‚ spanning the North American continent from the southwest to the northeast. If the comet over-performs—a long shot‚ but multiple outbursts in 2023 suggest it just might—we could be in for the added treat of a naked eye comet near the Sun during totality. The planets‚ Comet 12P‚ and the eclipsed Sun on April 8th‚ 2024 as seen from Mapleton‚ Maine. Credit: Starry Night. The Intriguing Tale of Comet 12P As of writing this‚ the comet is at magnitude +7.5 ‘with a bullet‚’ well within range of binoculars. The comet will reach perihelion on April 21st‚ 2024‚ at 0.78 Astronomical Units (AU) from the Sun. The orbit of Comet 12P. NASA/JPL-Horizons On a 71 year orbit (just a tad shorter than Halley’s Comet) Comet 12P can reach +5th magnitude on a favorable apparition. The name for the comet comes from the original discoverer astronomer Jean-Louis Pons‚ who first spotted the comet from the Marseilles Observatory in July 1812‚ and William Robert Brooks‚ who recovered the comet on the next apparition and cliched its periodic nature in 1883. Comet 12P Pons-Brooks‚ sketched by astronomer E.E. Barnard in 1884. Public Domain image. What 2023 Outbursts Mean for 2024 Keep in mind‚ an outburst near perihelion could vault Comet 12P up into naked eye brightness. Clearly‚ 12P Pons-Brooks has an active nucleus‚ estimated to be about 30 kilometers across. For context‚ Hale-Bopp had a nucleus estimated at 40-80 kilometers across. Comet 12P reached magnitude +4.5 during the last pass in 1954. Comet 12P Pons-Brooks in December 2023. Image credit: Dan Bartlett. “My own thoughts on 12P is that it has been a wonderful surprise because it has been so active and with such unusual features‚” astrophotographer Eliot Herman tells Universe Today. “There were predictions that 12P could be interesting from its past observations as an active comet‚ but I read the papers from prior passes and there are not that many images or drawings‚ and it appears that the observers of the era did not engage in constant monitoring.” Herman is also collaborating with the British Astronomy Association’s campaign to observe the comet. Tales of Two Comets “You can compare 12P with 1P (Halley)‚” says astrophotographer Michael Jaeger. “Both are long-known periodic comets with a similar orbital period. Both are absolutely similarly bright. While 1P has its perihelion between Venus and Mercury‚ 12P only makes it slightly above the orbital plane of Venus.” This means that Pons-Brooks is generally not as spectacular as Halley’s Comet near perihelion. “Photographically‚ 12P already presents itself beyond the orbital plane of Mars with a faint ion tail that is more than 2 degrees long‚” says Jaeger. “This will become significantly brighter over the next two months. this will give photographers the chance to take some spectacular images.” Outbursts in 2023 shot the comet up a full 100-fold in brightness or five full magnitudes‚ reminiscent of the 2007 outburst from Comet 17P/Holmes which shot it up an amazing 15 magnitudes (one million times!) into naked eye brightness overnight. The 2023 outbursts gave Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks a ‘devil’s horns‘ look‚ reminiscent of Star Wars’ Millennium Falcon. The ‘horned comet’ in 2023. Image credit: Eliot Herman The 2024 apparition sees the comet well-placed for northern hemisphere observers at dusk‚ low to the northwest. The comet is approaching us along our line of sight and loiters across the constellations Lacerta into Andromeda and Pisces from February through April before taking the plunge southward across the ecliptic. After 2024‚ we won’t see Comet 12P Pons-Brooks again until 2095. The dusk path of the comet‚ looking to the northwest 30 minutes after sunset. Credit: Starry Night. Here’s a look at comet 12P month-by-month in early 2024. As always‚ ‘passes near’ means less than one degree apart‚ unless otherwise noted: February 9-Passes into the constellation Lacerta the Lizard 12-Passes near the +4th magnitude star 1 Lacertae 22-Passes into Andromeda the Princess 25-Passes 6 degrees from the Blue Snowball Nebula NGC 7662 The celestial path of comet 12P‚ from February through April.

From there‚ the comet makes its closest Earth approach on June 2nd at 1.55 AU distant… but is much less favorably placed for observation in the southern constellation Lepus the Hare. Don’t miss a chance to catch comet 12P/Pons-Brooks‚ coming to a sky near (or above) you.

It’s been a while since NASA has had a spaceplane on the launchpad but this now feels closer than ever again. Their new prototype cargo spaceplane known as Dream Chaser is now undergoing vibration and vacuum testing at the Neil Armstrong test facility. The tests sound a little strange perhaps but on launch and during re-entry it will most definitely experience shaking during these phases of the flights.  The Dream Chaser spaceplane has been designed to attach to the top of a conventional Vulcan Centaur rocket and land like a plane. Its propulsion is to be a cluster of propane and nitrous oxide Vortex engines which differs from the originally planned hybrid rocket engines. The plane has an expendable cargo module called Shooting Star which can carry an additional 4‚500 kg of cargo. It’s been designed so that it can dispose of unwanted cargo by burning up on re-entry.  The spaceplane and its new cargo unit have been going through rigorous testing at the NASA facility since the 1st February. It’s without doubt one of the worlds largest and best equipped test facilities that can simulate the harsh conditions experienced during space flight.  First up for Dream Chaser is the shock test which is the jolt experienced when the plane is separated from the cargo module. It stays on the spacecraft shaker system (a giant table supported on pneumatics and springs that can shake a payload/spacecraft at up to 100 vibrations per second to simulate the violent shaking experienced during launch) to undergo vibration tests before another shock test is completed. On completion of the tests‚ the spacecraft will undergo a rigorous examination to identify any issues that may have surfaced.  Once Dream Chaser has completed this first suite of tests‚ it will move into the huge vacuum chamber to experience the lower ambient pressures experienced in space. Low temperatures and simulated dynamic solar heating will all go further to test the space planes readiness for space.  The Dream Chaser space plane atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. Image Credit: SNC If the tests are successful then Dream Chaser is well on its way to its first uncrewed test flight to the International Space Station later in 2024 as part of NASAs Commercial Resupply program. It won’t be completely empty though‚ it will deliver just over 3‚500km of cargo to the ISS.  If the first flight is successful then there are variants of the plane under development including an additional crewed variant that can carry up to seven passengers to low Earth orbit and a National Security Variant‚ the details of which are being kept under strict security protocols.
