With Comet Lovejoy slowly fading away, we will not see Lovejoy for another 8000 years! But, this year's astronomy highlight has given us a number of amazing photos in return. Above are my six favourite shots of the stunning green comet I have seen so far!
The European Space Agency have released a number of quite spectacular images for the public to view.
The four images above are my favourite images from those that have been released, as they show the comet in a way that has not really been seen before. The cracking of the neck of Comet 67P is a particular highlight, and something scientists will be keeping an eye on to see if it continues to get bigger or not. |
