In today's image, we see a composite image of 50 photos put together to show detail in the tails of Comet Lemmon. The comet is currently visible in northern skies if one looks toward the northwest after sunset. It will be relatively low on the horizon so a clear view of the horizon will help.

My podcasts are available in video form through this YouTube Channel.
