Description

So ever since I learned that comet Leonard was going to transit between the Whale and Hockey stick galaxies I waited for the chance to capture the transit.  Unfortunately the clouds rolled in earlier than predicted and I wasn't able to capture any good subs for a quality image.  I did however end up with about two hours of frames with some data through the clouds.  This is an animation of those frames at about 24 x 60sec frames per second.  It won't win any APODs but still interesting to watch.
