C/2024 L5 (ATLAS) is a comet that was discovered on 14 June 2024 as A117uUD by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), South Africa, Sutherland.It will reach perihelion on 10 March 2025 at 3.432 AU (513.4 million km) from the Sun. [4] [5]
The next perihelion of Halley's Comet is predicted for 28 July 2061, [4] [5] when it will be better positioned for observation than during the 1985–1986 apparition, as it will be on the same side of the Sun as Earth. [166] The closest approach to Earth will be one day after perihelion. [7]

Halley's Comet, named after English astronomer Edmund Halley who first demonstrated its periodicity, returns to the vicinity of the Sun and Earth approximately every 76 years. Since comets are believed to be the most primordial objects in the solar system, their study is of great importance to planetary science.
