I had this image up on my other site and have since reprocessed it. Much better.
This comet was discovered on November 18, 2006 by E. J. Christensen with the Catalina Sky Survey. At the time of this image, it was about 3.7 AU from the sun; beyond the orbit of Mars. It will be closest to the sun, at perihelion, in summer 2009, when it will be about 3.3 AU from the Sun. Not much closer.
After that it will head south and out of the solar system, never to return.
I'll surely be taking more images it it approaches perihelion.
