Neowise data found!

This is some old data, lost, found again today, and stacked. From the summer of 2020.

Its not much, only 7 x 24 seconds, using my Canon 60D with modifications. This was taken at one of our dark site, in Sandilands provincial park.

To see Comet c/2020 F3 Neowise we needed a northern sky with no light bounce, and this area is unfettered by skyglow from the city... perfect for comets in the low northern skies.

This site is not far out of the city.. and its nice and dark! The Milky Way was very prominent before the moon poked itself up and over the eastern horizon.

This is a single image @ 336 mm (SV 70t), ISO 1600, Canon 60D, looking North and low on the horizon. This object was low in the soup, taken at about 2:45 am.

This comet has an impressively lengthy tail - well worth the wait til 2:45 am to image it.

Thanks for looking...

BTW Skysafari says: "C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) appears in the constellation Auriga. Its orbit is parabolic, and its closest approach to the Sun is 0.3 AU."

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
