Pages: 1 AXAF sage Reged: 09/15/04 Loc: New England Comet ISON's Tail (2013-02-05 at 02h 24m UT)       #5662938 - 02/05/13 05:32 AM Attachment (81 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Hi all: I obtained a better image of comet ISON's tail last night with a 17" Corrected Dall-Kirkham Astrograph, and an SBIG STL-11000M (plus a Baader luminance filter). This was a 10 minute exposure taken on 2013-02-05 at 02h 24m UT. Enjoy!

Nice pic To all comet obervers here - Can I suggest keeping all the ISON stuff together in one thread. It makes it a lot easier to read the evolvement of the comet from peoples observations and images. Otherwise it just gets lost all over the place and breaks the time line into hard to resequence pieces See recent LINEAR K5 thread and the grand Holmes thread of 2007! on this forum as examples of coherant threads documenting entire apparitions.

Thanks for perservering on confirming that tail. Re Tonk's suggestion--I'm willing.

Good idea. Post Extras:       canukLX90 sage Reged: 12/25/08 Loc: B.C.
