Description

Second photo of comet Neowise C/2020 F3, this time the comet was framed in its entirety.

In this shot you can see the two characteristic tails of the comet: the tail of dust and the tail of ions.

The tail of dust and gas is the large and characteristic tail of the comet and curves relative to the orbital path, while the tail of ions (the blue one) is straighter and facing in the opposite direction to the Sun.
