C/2022 E3 (ZTF) 2022-Aug-30 Christian Harder

hi all,

here an older sketch:

30.8.2022, 19:55 UT, Region SQL 20.7mag, field near Jeersdorf/Germany

with my new 14" Dobson f/4.5 (Astroreflect mirror), V 176x

The comet stood near by NGC 6162 ( 13.6mag) and NGC 6163 ( 14.4mag)

I measured that night with V 144x :

12.0mag, DC 5, diameter 0.8`with tail 1.8`in PA 90°
