  1. C/2022 E3 (ZTF)

    C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is a long-period comet from the Oort cloud that was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) on March 2, 2022. The comet has a bright green glow around its nucleus, due to the effect of sunlight on diatomic carbon and cyanogen. It’s closest approach to Earth was on February 1, 2023, at a distance of 0.28 AU (42 million km; 26 million mi).

  5. Car loaded with kit. Let’s see if I can get #c2022e3(ZTF) tonight by throwing a bit of #goto at it - or at least using my #telrad and a bit of dew heating. Might try my small@#refractor first… if no success then see if the #c8edge will do anything… #astrodon #astronomy #telescope #comet
