“Comet Lemmon near the South Celestial Pole” is copyrighted by Barden Ridge Observatory. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteComet Lemmon, discovered as part of the Mount Lemmon Survey, is currently sweeping through southern skies. It displays a stunning lime green coma and a faint, divided tail in this telescopic image from Australia. The greenish tint comes from diatomic C2 gas in the coma fluorescing in sunlight, making it brighter than expected.
