The exact moonrise time varies with longitude, so optimal viewing intervals depend on local conditions. After moonrise, observers can continue viewing by facing westward to minimize lunar glare.
A newly discovered asteroid designated 2025 WE14 flew past Earth at a distance of 0.073 lunar distances at 18:44 UTC on November 29, 2025. The object was first detected by the Mt. Lemmon Survey on November 30 during a very short one-day observation arc.
A newly discovered asteroid designated 2025 WV13 made a very close approach to Earth on November 27, 2025, passing at just 0.065 lunar distances.
A very bright daylight fireball was observed over Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands on November 23, 2025, streaking across the skies with a greenish glow.
Ground-based observations on November 16 and 17, 2025 captured multiple jets on the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, including sunward jets and an extended anti-tail. The images were obtained from telescopes in New Mexico, USA and France. A public online observation by the Virtual Telescope Project is scheduled at 04:15 UTC on November 19, 2025.
A bright fireball was observed over New Zealand’s North Island at 09:31 UTC (22:31 NZDT) on November 17, 2025, captured by multiple Fireballs Aotearoa cameras, including the color camera at Tauranga Astronomical Society in Matua and station NZ0033 in Katikati.
High-resolution observations from the Virtual Telescope Project on November 13, 2025, revealed multiple fragments and debris structures in the inner coma of comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS), confirming a post-perihelion breakup.
The Beaver supermoon, the largest full Moon of 2025, will rise on November 5, 2025, coinciding with the peak of the Southern Taurid meteor shower. The Virtual Telescope Project will broadcast the moon live from Manciano, Italy, beginning at 19:00 UTC.
A newly discovered asteroid designated 2025 UC11 flew past Earth at a distance of 0.017 lunar distances (0.00004 AU / 6 599 km / 4 101 miles) at 12:11 UTC on October 30, 2025. The object was first detected seven hours earlier by the JPL SynTrack Robotic Telescope in Auberry, California.
