COSMIC MESSAGE

Comet PanSTARRS (C/2011 L4) displays a broad dust tail in this long-exposure image. Fading for northern hemisphere observers, the comet remains visible above the western horizon after sunset. This enhanced image reveals remarkable, subtle striations within the comet's tail, showcasing the complex dynamics of its outflowing dust.
