Joel 2:30-31

 


Joel 2:30-31

30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.

31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.

The ‘Great Comet of 2025’ 

Lights Up the Skies in Stunning Photos

Feb 7th 2025

"Comet G3 (ATLAS) recently appeared in the skies above Earth: a rare celestial visitor that is thought to appear just once every 600,000 years. It lit up the skies of the southern hemisphere and has been dubbed the “Great Comet of 2025.”

(You didn't hear about it  much because it was only visible in the southern hemisphere. Crazy how many people don't know the sky/stars look different, depending on where you are on the earth. Southern/Northern hemispheres, North/South poles for examples. 

Thing was unreal.  

And for those of you who don't think they can figure out 600,000 years? You need to do a lil research on Kepler's Laws of planetary motion. (Pastor Bridgette knows about it :-).






"Gas and dust particles are ejected from the nucleus of the comet and pushed away from the Sun by the solar wind and radiation, creating a spectacular display with multiple tail."

"The comet was also visible from space: astronaut and photography legend Don Pettit captured this image in January. “It is totally amazing to see a comet from orbit,” Pettit wrote on X."






"For the most part, astrophotographers in the northern hemisphere weren’t able to resolve the comet anything like those south of the equator. The European Southern Observatory — located in the Atacama Desert, Chile — shared a series of breathtaking photos of the comet above the Paranal Observatory."

"ESO’s Paranal Observatory is one of the world’s premier locations for stargazing and astrophotography. The Atacama Desert boasts some of the darkest skies in the world: far from light pollution and radio interference."

"Comet G3 reached perihelion — its closest point to the Sun — on January 13. Many observers believed that it wouldn’t survive and the cosmic snowball would disintegrate. This is because it was presumed the comet was a new one originating from the Oort cloud. But as astronomers studied the comet, it was found to be more likely an older comet — one that has made close approaches to the Sun before. The ESO explains that it is now moving away from Earth’s star but “there are signs that the nucleus might have fragmented even though the tail is still visible.”
