Der Komet 12P/Pons-Brooks ist ein periodischer Komet mit einer Umlaufzeit von 71 Jahren, der die klassische Definition eines Halley-Typ-Kometen erfüllt.Er wurde 1812 von Jean-Louis Pons entdeckt und später 1883 von William Robert Brooks wiederentdeckt.Der nächste Perihel Durchgang des Kometen findet am 21. April 2024 statt.
Seine scheinbare Helligkeit wird zu diesem Zeitpunkt auf 4 Magnituden geschätzt. Der Kometenkern wird auf etwa 10 km geschätzt.
Es wird vermutet, dass er der Ursprung des Dezember κ-Draconiden-Meteorstroms sein könnte, der zwischen dem 29. November und dem 13. Dezember aktiv ist.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
