Observer
Name Patrick G
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I caught it on a long exposure image on my DSLR while observing the comet Pons Brooks in very dark skies. It came out of almost due west. I watched it while taking the image and it was large fuzzy dot. When it crossed in front of Orion, it sputtered out.
