Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS), still putting on a show after its nucleus disintegrated. I wasn't able to see it this time, but still no trouble for a camera sensor.

Over the last week I've been going out every couple of nights and shooting C/2024 G3 Atlas as it slowly disintegrates after the front fell off.

Here are a couple more of my Dwarf3 shots, along with one from my phone. One is very heavily processed to bring out the side-tails.

20-50 frames of 15s at 80.

Went comet chasing last night, got some great technically good shots. And this one. Which I love.

Taken when the comet was less than one degree above the horizon, as it dived into the sea.

A little cloud just rounds things out.

El cometa C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) visto desde Las Grutas, Argentina, por Denis Martínez. Nikon D90, 10", f/4.0, ISO 640. https://spaceweathergallery2.com/indiv_upload.php?upload_id=219716

Pasó por perihelio hace diez días, muy cerca del Sol: a solo 0.093 UA (la Tierra está a 1 UA). Llegó a ser visible durante el día, con prismáticos, con magnitud -3.5. Parecía que había sobrevivido pero finalmente el núcleo se ha deshecho: lo que queda es un cometa zombi. La espectacular cola es observable desde el Hemisferio Sur.

Cometa

From a dark site with a flat horizon and a proper camera, comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) is a stunner at the moment!

Easily visible with the naked eye, with the tail visually extending for about 10 degrees.

With a 30 second exposure at 70 mm f/8, the tail is maginficent! This is just a single snap. Yes, there are also *fifteen* 🤬 starlinks in this single photo. A new record for me 😡

Quite a bit of detail in that #comet image I took a few rights ago 👆 I was able to extract with Siril. #CometC2024G3 #C2024G3 #Astrophotography
Toda la semana intentando verlo… hasta que ayer a eso de las 22, pese a la nubosidad costera apareció #Lipimavida #C2024G3

When you automate the camera bit, so you can use your eyeballs, you end up with time lapse data.

The camera was on a tracker, so the comet stays centered whilst the building rises up to meet it. #comet #Astrodon #c2024g3
