Comet ATLAS (C/2024 G3) over Wellington – 20th January

Although the comet's nucleus seems to have disintegrated in the last couple of days, its tail is still growing and putting on an impressive display in the twilight sky. Photographed from our backyard, about 1.5 hours after sunset as it sets in the SW sky over New Zealand's capital city.
