Visibility I / V
29P / (Schwassmann-Wachmann) The periodic comet of the Jupiter family was filmed on the first night of the October 2020 Virtual Club Event. Outbreaks sometimes occur in a comet, which is why we have tried to portray many times. The comet's orbit is outside Jupiter's orbit and will come close to Jupiter 2037 less than 1au away. Discharges may increase the brightness by 1-5 mag. The size of the large comet's core is 60.4km. When photographing the comet was 4,913au away, the closest it was 4,747au on October 10, 2019. 1Picture. Average stack by comet, stretch with MaximDL Histogram Specification-Exponential filter.
