A Couple of Comets and a Couple of Non-Comets (Messier Objects)

[Bill S]

As many of you will know 12 April was the 200th anniversary of Charles Messier's death. During the month I've been looking for a couple of comets and here are some snaps of them together with a couple of Messier objects in Hercules, which is where comet Johnson was at the time. Comet 41P/T-G-K is in Hercules too, now.

Clear skies!

Very well done - one and all!

Thank you for posting these thought-provoking images of these fascinating visitors from afar.

Please do carry on.

Cosmic Cyanide Ho!
