Searching for Comets Lemmon & SWAN

What promised to be a spectacular celestial event turned into a cloudy and frustrating two-night affair on Oct 21 and 22. Despite ideal conditions coinciding with the new moon and the Orionid meteor shower, the rare appearance of two distinct comets, C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) and C/2025 R2 (SWAN), was ultimately obscured by inclement weather over areas in and around Hyderabad. The Orionid meteor shower too peaked on the same nights.
