Comet 24p/schaumasse: observation video

About this celestial object

The periodic comet 24P/Schaumasse shows a diffuse coma and a fine sweep of tail.

Short‑period comets often present a compact coma; the tail can shift slightly from frame to frame.

So low above the horizon, haze hampers the view, yet the long sequence captures the moving nucleus and its dusty sheen.

892 individual frames yield just under 2½ hours total exposure at f/5.
