C/2019 L3 (ATLAS)

[Wiu-Wiu]

Shot earlier this month, this little comet is slowly making its way through CAS. 

15.5 at time of this image, it should be mag 15 around the time of this post. 

Perihelion in january 2022 (2022!!) so we have over a year to observe this one before it either breaks up or disappears.

Quick Follow up on this one before the clouds rollled in. Took longer exposures this time, which paid off in finding it while stacking 😅

Still on this comet, today it is close to LDN 1256. Only 60 minutes before clouds rolled in again. The scale of the Esprit 120 shows just how small this comet is.
