Re: Comet Atas G3 at high noon this today - 1/12/25

 

Here's a photo of C/2006 P1 (McNaught) that I took at noon on 14 January 2007 with an ED80(mm) f7.5 refractor and Canon DSLR, 50 x 1/1000 second exposures stacked together (ISO 100). Taken from Gisborne, New Zealand.?

C/2024 G3 Atlas from Arizona at near noon daytime.? January 12 starting at 10:44am MST ( 5:44 PM UTC), 10" f/3.9 Newtonian, 250 exposures each 0.03s combined onto? image in stack.? ASI083, Payson,AZ.??

The comet was 5 degrees from the Sun, and I used a special baffle tube system to block the sun from entering the tube.? the nucleus of the comet is singular, stellar and not breaking up as far as I can see.??
