COMET NEOWISE HAS 2 TAILS ! Taken by Nicolas Lefaudeux on July 7, 2020 @ Forges les bains, France



clear skies this morning allowed me to make better images of comet Neowise. stacking images for 10minutes with a 190mm diameter telescope reveals that comet Neowise has two tails! on top of the bright dust tail, a reddish ion tail is visible. this unusual tail color reminds of the tail of comet C/2011 L4 Panstarrs visible which was visible in 2013.
