Description

The "Green Comet" on February 3rd. Even though the moon was 98% full, the coma was easily visible in the eyepiece with the 115mm refractor. Significantly less so with the 62mm refractor. The Samyang 135mm lens at f/4 with 183MC camera definitely revealed more. 🙂 Sadly, this is the only chance we've had on the comet. Between the clouds and work, it just hasn't worked out.
Also, nearly all comets are green. Not sure why the media has given it this name. 🤷🏼‍♂️
