Comet PanSTARRS

Comet PanSTARRS

The comet PanSTARRs as photographed last week. With some cloudy weather during the peak observation time I was able to get lucky with this shot about 60 minutes after sunet.  This comet that was discovered less than 2 years ago with an estimated period of about 100,000 years, so not likely humans as we know them will be around when it returns again.
