If you do photograph 12P, try taking a series of short exposures, then discard the ones (if any) criss-crossed by satellites. Combining the "clean" shots can produce an image like this:

"This is a 32 min exposure in 15 sec single shots," says Fritz Helmut Hemmerich, who observed the comet from #Tenerife in the Canary Islands on March 31st. "The #comet looked great as it passed near the yellow-orange star Hamal (mutton in Arabic) in the constellation Aries. I'm very happy to get this shot with such modest equipment."

Satelites aside, Comet 12P is a great target for amateur astrophotographers. It will be in the evening sky all week long, and might even be visible during the April 8th solar eclipse.

Tenerife Fire Reaches 14,878 Hectares Burned

After the addition on Monday of Fasnia, the fire ravaging the island affects 12 of its 31 municipalities.

The forest fire raging in #Tenerife has already reached 14,878 hectares (ha) of burned land, which is almost half of the forest mass and 7.3% of the total area of the #island.

Authorities maintain the forecast that the fire will be controlled in days. The stabilization of Izaña in the vicinity of the Teide National Park set as a goal for this day has been achieved.

In the area of Mal Abrigo a "positive evolution" of the fire is reported. According to the Minister of Territorial Policy of the Government of the Canary Islands, Manuel Miranda, this front "is still open, and we must continue working hard to stabilize it."

Spain: Tenerife Suffers Third Major Wildfire of the Summer

<p>Forest fires in Spain destroyed 63,802 hectares in the first seven months of 2023, almost 100,000 less than in the same period of 2022.<br />  </p>

🇮🇨 Seit heute sind Bewohner*innen im Lager Las Raíces, #Tenerife wegen der unwürdigen Bedingungen im Hungerstreik.

Kälte, schlechtes Essen und rassistische Behandlung durch einige Accem-Mitarbeiter sind Alltag. Und sie sitzen auf den #Canarias fest.
