NEOWISE displays Two Tails!

You need to add a widget, row, or prebuilt layout before you’ll see anything here. 🙂

As of 19th July Comet C/2020 F3 NEOWISE is now circumpolar from the UK, and visible after sunset in the northwest sky, to the lower right of Ursa Major. Visually the comet has faded slightly from my location, but the camera pulls out more detail. A stack of 6, 20 second frames taken with my EOS 700D and 50mm lens revealed a thin, near-vertical ion tail, distinct from the diffuse dust tail.
