Roman,

You did it, congratulations! That is a very nice GIF, I am impressed with how you managed to see magnitude 16 Comet 74P in the spiral arms of magnitude 10 Galaxy M66. So now we would like to see another image added to your GIF on 02 May 2018! Hope you have clear skies. Still cloudy in Denver.

Thank you for sharing your GIF,

Mike Olason
