Finally a clear evening for imaging the comet with Astrometrica calculating magnitudes of V=5.0, 5.1 at 0121, 0127UT on 2022 January 2 UT using 10x10s green filter images each time. 10x10s images with no filter also resulted in V=5.1. The coma was 5' wide and the tail was >1 degree long at PA 95 degrees. At this time there does not appear to be any unusual activity in the coma or in the one degree of tail imaged. |
