Take a look at the beautiful comet, you won't get another chance for 50,000 years!
An astrophotographer has put together an awesome timelapse video of the green comet that passed through the solar system this past month.
Officially known as C/2022 E3 , Miguel Claro imaged the comet from the Dark Sky Alqueva observatory in Portugal which gets an average of 286 clear nights each year.“Plus the fact that we have an increasingly huge amount of data to process which is normally done during the day….so, we don’t get left much free time to sleep.”The timelapse video reveals the key moments of the comet’s activity, including when the comet’s tail disconnected on January 18.
“But ZTF didn’t stop surprising us and also began to reveal a rare anti-tail which gradually changed the angle position while our planet Earth was crossing the orbital plane of the comet.”
