Another update on the fate of the Kreutz comet C/2026 A1 (MAPS) as seen by the CCOR-1 coronograph (https://ccor.nrl.navy.mil/) on board the GOES-19 satellite.

The last image is from 7:15 UTC on April 6. The remnant of the comet is now becoming rather faint and is about as bright as the solar corona.

One more movie of the demise of Kreutz comet MAPS, showing the dust cloud feature emerging on the “wrong” – i.e. not following the comet's orbital motion – side of the Sun. You can see nice striations in the remaining dust / gas cloud.

Here's a movie of the end of Kreutz comet MAPS, showing the dust cloud feature emerging on the “wrong” (*) side of the Sun as discussed by @cosmos4u in https://scicomm.xyz/@cosmos4u/116348754573023995 and https://scicomm.xyz/@cosmos4u/116349936300324373.

(*) The comet should've reemerged from the Sun's glare at the opposing side.
