Popular Post +Derbyshire Dave Posted February 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Set up last night and took a series of photos through the GT81 on the Zwo183mm. 21x180s with the luminance filter. The comet obviously moved through the star field in that time, so stacked the comet alone in pixInsight, then re-merged in a single star frame from the centre of the movement. Click and click again in Flickr for better resolution.

Clive Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Is there a hint of a tail there? Looking on my phone at minimum zoom there seems to be a hint of one but upon zooming in it seems to disappear. Is there anything visible on an overstetched image? +Derbyshire Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Derbyshire Dave Posted February 1, 2023 Author Share Posted February 1, 2023 Yes definitely. I would say that there are likely two tails Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
