Amateur astronomer Michael jäger shot 41-minutnoe live in his own private Observatory in Austria. At that time, the comet Iwamoto crossed the celestial equator, so the film is a lot of bands from geostationary satellites.
Discovered in December 2018 Japanese Amateur astronomer Masayuki Iwamoto, this comet is a wanderer from beyond the Kuiper belt. It is more than 5 times farther from the Sun than Pluto.
Comet Iwamoto visits us very often. Her last passage through the inner Solar system was about 648 BC, and the next won't happen until 3390 BC So if you want to see the comet, now is the time to look.
