Comet Wierzchos (2024 E1) has been putting on a nice show for Southern Hemisphere binocular observers and imagers, featuring multiple tails. Here, it slides by the dwarf galaxy PGC 3589 in Sculptor on Feb. 14. The imager used a 12-inch f/3.6 scope to take LRGB exposures of 20, 9, 9, and 9 minutes, respectively.
