The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, which recently passed behind the Sun, creating significant difficulties for observation, has now moved approximately 45 degrees from the solar disk, making it accessible for observation from Earth. A large number of images of the object will gradually appear (and are already appearing) in the near future, but these images will still shed little light on its nature.

The Leonid meteor shower's peak is expected to be relatively low today, although consistent with recent years. Based on the rate already measured, in good outdoor conditions, with clear skies, one meteor will be visible approximately every 3-5 minutes. In urban areas, even without clouds, it's unlikely you'll see more than one or two meteors per hour.
