STComet A6 Lemmon on the morning of Oct 10th. The time lapse shows its movement over 75 minutes (and lots of satellites and planes) using one minute exposures. It is quickly getting closer to Earth and is now 64million miles away. It will make its closest approach to Earth on Oct 21st. It’s also brightened to magnitude 5.4 and is now technically visible to the naked eye. The bright moon would make that difficult, but the moon will be less of an issue a later this week. It’s visible before dawn in the constellation Ursa Major. The weather is not great to start the week but should have more images by Friday. This photo used 40 of the best one minute exposures I captured.
