The 2 tails characteristic of all comets can be clearly seen in this image. One, comprised mostly of ice & dust particles (the white tail), and one comprised mostly of ionized gas particles (the blue tail).
An interesting side note:
Dr. Alan Hale, co-discoverer of the comet, lives in Cloudcroft, N.M., which is located in the Sacramento Mountains behind Alamogordo approximately under the area where the comet was photographed. |
