[edit]DescriptionComet ISON from MSFC telescope on 2013-11-19 (close).jpg |
English: Comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) shines brightly in this image taken on the morning of Nov. 19, 2013. This is a 10-second exposure taken with the Marshall Space Flight Center 20" telescope in New Mexico. The camera there is black and white, but the smaller field of view allows for a better "zoom in" on the comet's coma, which is essentially the head of the comet. |
