The tail of Comet ATLAS is so big, it wraps around the sky to the northern hemisphere. Last night, Nick James of the British Astronomical Association photographed it from the Canary Islands: "With the help of Nicolas Lefaudeux I've processed my images from last night which show the extensive dust tail with the comet's head 7 degrees below the horizon as seen from 28N," says James. "The image is a stack of 41 five-second exposures with a Sony A7s iii camera. The field of view is 20x14 deg and the tail stretches to the top of the frame, so 21 deg from the head of the comet, although it is very faint by then. I convinced myself that I could see the lower, brighter part of the tail with the naked eye as faint striations similar in brightness to the zodiacal light but this is probably uncertain," he adds. "I imaged the comet itself around 20 mins after sunset but it was much fainter than the night before."
