comet and solar corona, photographed by soho, 19th february 2015.

39 images, taken over 9 hours, of c/2015 d1 (soho) at perihelion. this comet was found in soho images by amateur astronomer worachate boonplod, becoming the 2,875th comet discovered by soho.

in a few places (e.g. at center right) you can just make out background stars moving diagonally (bottom right toward top left). the dotted path that the comet appears to follow is an artifact of my image processing - one that will hopefully be eliminated in future.
