Details:
I made a observation of 12P Friday evening. What a surprise...
I saw a very clear dark streak in the sphere surround the comet. I have not seen this in images taken around 11-12 November.
Is this a new feature?
There is a lot going on with this comet. This is one of the most interesting objects to follow in the sky right now.
Attached is a close up of the comet 0.42"/px and a animation from 5 images.
