About this image

Taken using the Astronomical Society of Edinburgh's remote observatory in Spain: ASERO

A very interesting comet that we've been monitoring for some months and one of our Society's projects. Good structure and lots of outbursts to keep us interested! More people are interested in comets as a result of monitoring this and setting up our remote observatory has also got people engaged.
