My capture of Witanen on the night of the 11th had a lot of satellite trails, so I figured it might be fun as an animation. It looks like there's a lot of debris in the same orbit—I count nine distinct pieces in a group to the right of the comet (click for full size):
Comet 46P/Wirtanen 2018-12-11, 61Ëš elevation

Cheers,
