Fantastic. It is big compared to M79 in your pic. Visually the tail is just visible to me from my backyard but great to see your wonderful pics and animations.

There's nothing I like better than an astro animation. I was observing last night and it looks to me like the animation might be running backwards. Then again, this could have been captured before closest approach to M79.

This video is from night of the 28th so a night before closest approach. Should be animated forwards .
