"2024 Total Solar Eclipse: A Celestial Spectacle with Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks"

In addition to the upcoming April total solar eclipse, viewers may also have the opportunity to see planets such as Venus and Jupiter, as well as the 12P/Pons-Brooks comet. Venus will be visible just before, during, and after totality, while Jupiter will only be visible at 100% totality and will appear faint in comparison. The comet, with an orbital period of 71 years, may also be visible, located roughly 25 degrees from the sun. Observers are reminded to wear eclipse glasses and can use the "fist trick" to locate these celestial objects.
