C/2017 T2 PANSTARRS - Lancashire

[fireballxl5]

Hi all,

we had a short clear spell on Friday evening and I managed to grab some luminance and RGB subs of the comet over a 34 minute period using my dual scope rig - lum @ 120s and RGB @ 60s subs.

As the comet's motion was fairly quick I used just one set of subs to create this LRGB image. Using the 17 lum subs I also created this animated GIF showing the comet's motion over this period.

All images at 1.7arc-sec/pixel.

CS, Andy
