Comet C\2019 Y4 (ATLAS)


Recommended Posts

Nice.

Do you think its brighter than Panstars ?

I've got one app telling me its Mag +14 and another saying its +8 ?

Nice picture Chris. I finally got first light (visual) with my Lumicon Comet Filter on C/2019 Y4 (Atlas).

Hi Rob - I'm no expert I'm afraid - I was just chuffed and grateful to get some images for a still and timelapse

@Bino-viewerThey are both about the same mag at the moment (8) but whilst Panstarrs is about at its peak, Atlas is still brightening rapidly.
