12P/Pons-Brooks 2024-Apr-05 Mike Olason

12P on the evening of 2024 April 5 continues its slow fade after the eruption and was magnitude G=4.3 as calculated from 20x30 second images taken thru a green filter in an aperture diameter of 10'. With all the dust now in the coma there is not a lot of diatomic carbon visible being destroyed by the Sun, almost no green in the coma. There is not much color in the coma at all at least not as seen by the 2 different color cameras that I used.

Cheers, Mike.
