Title

Probably last observation of C/2024 S1 imaged by Michael Mattiazzo using the T75 0.25m reflector Itelescope in Chile on Oct 23.37 UT. 6x30s stacked exposures. FOV 45' wide, rest of the details on the image. Total magnitude 10.8, coma 1.0' and a 17' deg tail in PA 251 deg. As can be seen image quality is poor due to very low elevation. Astrometry is continuing to show higher residuals but of course accuracy is suffering.
