Oct 15, 2024 | seattletimes.com | John Stucke

What a month for staring at the night sky. Last week, the northern lights wove ribbons of green and red through the dark. This past weekend, and again Monday evening, a comet that last passed by Earth 80,000 years ago appeared to be chasing the setting sun in the western sky. In Spokane, dozens of people stood along the South Hill Bluff off High Drive starting at sunset. By 6:59 p.m., a long smudge appeared to the north of bright Venus. The comet is called Tsuchinshan-ATLAS.
