I took this image with the Las Cumbres Observatory facility at Teide in the Canary Islands, June 20.10 UT, 5-minute exposure, 0.4-m telescope. Field dimensions are roughly 8.5 by 8 arcminutes; the bright star at upper right is HD 161054, V = 8.3. The comet's heliocentric and geocentric distances were 8.90 and 8.62 AU, respectively. |
