Description

Repeating previous image's post...The brightest comet in the Northern Hemisphere, at the moment.  Just a shy brighter than Evening comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF), although E3 is a little more showy.  See https://astrob.in/lsyzaz/0/ for my recent image.  Here I've taken 92 x 120 seconds and stacked them.  The bluish bright star is betta UMa, Merak, lowest star of the asterism "the Pointers" in the big dipper.
