Comet ATLAS was supposed to give us a show as it zoomed by Earth, but plot twist: it totally fell apart before scientists could get a good look! The comet split into three pieces thanks to the sun’s intense gravitational pull. There’s even an animation showing the breakup. Now, only those with serious telescopes might catch a glimpse of its remains in Leo. Space is wild, right? #Science #CometATLAS #SpaceNews
