Comet C/2025 K1 (atla)
About this celestial object
A first, shallow look at C/2025 K1 (Atla)—delicate yet unmistakable in the star field.
As a long‑period comet it shows a soft coma; in a short integration the tail remains only hinted.
Near the horizon, extinction swallows fine gradients, yet the nucleus stands off from the field.
42×~10 s at 250 mm f/5 provide a quick overview ahead of the longer run.
