Description

Object/Date:
C/2021 E3 (ZTF) @ 2022 July 24, 08:54 UT

Description:
The last image I was able to take of the comet C/2021 E3 (ZTF) on July 24, 2022, I have not seen any more published. It was then moving away to a distance of 1.9 AU from the Sun and 2.0 AU from the Earth, with a brightness at magnitude 10.3 and a fairly condensed greenish coma with 7' in angular size, although what still stood out the most is its 12' tail length. In August it will be at a very low altitude, dimming in brightness and only observable from the southern hemisphere.
