The Green Comet AKA, C/2022 E3 ZTF
is a Non periodic comet, meaning it completes an orbit around the sun very rarely. The whole point of this image is not just the pretty picture, But Lot of great information can be obtained too, such as the speed of the comet and its distance. Comets are pretty fast when it comes to speed and quite unpredictable too. They have a highly elliptical orbit. Interestingly this comet wont come back till 50,000 years. so It was last here in the time of ice age!
I'm in such an awe that Just with 2 second exposures, I DID IT!, The comet was on a close conjunction with planet mars which definitely helped
Equipment Details:
Orion starseeker 5 inch reflector
Star seeker Alt/AZ mount
