Observing season of the Centaur Comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 is underway. An outburst was observed (see: https://britastro.org/section_information_/comet-section-overview/mission-29p-centaur-comet-observing-campaign).
This image from iTelescope T19 shows the asymmetric expanding coma from a new outburst that is derived from a specific site on the Centaur described in the web linked cited.
Last season in 2021 large outbursts were recorded.
