See it on NASA's siteComet C/2022E3 (ZTF), once a bright object, is now fading as it moves away from Earth. During its closest approach in early February, it was 2.3 light-minutes away; it is now nearly 13.3 light-minutes distant. This deep image, from March 21, still shows its broad, whitish dust tail and greenish coma near Orion's bright star Rigel.
