Comet
289/P Blanpain This was a short capture session while trying to get to grips with the settings on my QHY163M deep sky camera. It was an un-calibrated stack of around eight x 30 second exposures. The comet wasn't quite in the place predicted by Stellarium, but I've had it be slightly off before on comets and asteroids. I found a faint fuzzy object not far from the predicted position and with nothing else in Stellarium for that location, presume this little faint fuzzy object is the comet - 22-03-20 |
