Details:
What a sight this morning! I was able to see at least 5 degrees of tail with the binoculars. Super easy naked eye, maybe 3 degrees of tail. The intense yellow color that has been seen intruiged me, so I looked at it in the telescope with one of those Star Analyzer diffraction gratings, and sure enough there was a line in the yellow. I believe this is the sodium doublet.
