Details:
I recorded this image at 03:32 UTC on April 2, 2020. After processing the image I noticed a small fuzzy undefined object very close to the comet (white circle). My suspicion is that the object is a very faint galaxy but I was unable to verify that claim. Is it possible that I recorded a fragment of the comet separating from the primary mass?
Recorded 24x60 second images, ISO800.
