Comet PanSTARRS Anti-Tail

NASA APOD · Marco Fulle
COSMIC MESSAGE

Comet PanSTARRS, now bound for the outer solar system, displays an extensive anti-tail. This anti-tail is made of dust trailing along the comet's orbit, stretching to the left of the coma in this widefield image. The image was taken against the starry background of Cepheus. The comet, though dimmer, still shows its broad dust tail growing.
