Comet 203P/Korlevic at magnitude 19 has developed a nice 0.03 degree long tail to the WNW of the coma as it moves away from the Sun in its 10.1 year orbit. 203P was at perihelion last March 2020 when it brightened to magnitude 17. In these images 203P is 286 million miles from Earth. Magnitude 17 Asteroid 3298 is to the west of the comet.
