Details:
So many of the comets I have imaged over the years start out with a green blob of a coma and a short spike-like tail. Over time, and under ideal conditions, a comet will grow loosing their sphericity and the tail grows longer with added details.
When I processed this morning's addition of C/2025 R3 PANSTARRS, stacked the comet aligned images, I thought WOW, NOW WE HAVE A COMET! A nice shrouded envelope has started to form around the green coma and the tail is exhibiting some striking detail.
