This is an image of comet Comet Encke taken on 2003-10-17. The image is a combination of 14 images centered on the comet (small dot mid-right). The comet is moving quite fast against the back ground so the stars trail, but the comet does not.

This is the 14 single frames used in the above image made into a movie sequence. You can see the comets relative movement. Each image was 60 seconds so this is over a 15min period. The frames move a bit, but you can see the effect. |
