Description

So the horns are now missing (see full resolution/closeup https://astrob.in/ya6qdm/B/) so I hope the media will come up with a more fitting comet name for 12P/ Pons-Brooks, imaged yesterday evening.  A nice double star appears in this nearly one hour stack while the comet still drifts through the constellation of Lyra.  I'm still having problems with stars using the hyperstar setup , and artifacts of Vega can easily be seen in the inverted color annotated version.  INHO a very pretty FOV.
