Dubbed the Great Comet of 2025 , it is currently the brightest comet of 2025, [ 6 ] with an apparent magnitude reaching −3.8 on the day of its perihelion. [ 5 ]
Astronomers have been discovering weakly hyperbolic comets that were perturbed out of the Oort Cloud since the mid-1800s. Prior to finding a well-determined orbit for comets, the JPL Small-Body Database and the Minor Planet Center list comet orbits as having an assumed eccentricity of 1.0. (This is the eccentricity of a parabolic trajectory ...
