Comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS) has fragmented after its close solar approach, revealing insights into the fragility of long-period comets. New images show distinct pieces drifting apart, a process likely caused by internal gas pressure and structural weakness. This disintegration offers a real-time view of cometary evolution under intense solar heating.
