SAN ANTONIO – KSAT viewers are sharing amazing photos of a comet over San Antonio .
The comet can be seen over San Antonio about 40 minutes after sunset. It can only be seen for a short time at dusk.
All you have to do is look west, just above the horizon. You can find Venus (looks like a really bright star) and then look a little to the right.
If you view it through binoculars or your phone camera, that can help!
Make sure to take it all in while you can -- the comet will only be visible over San Antonio through Oct. 18. Some clouds may be around Thursday & Friday.
If you’d like to send in your pictures of the comet, we’d love to see them! Be sure to post to KSAT Connect , and you might just see your pics on KSAT!
View some photos of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS taken by KSAT Connect viewers below.
