black and white image of sky full of stars, with brighter, fuzzy constellation at center
The solid body of 12P/Pons-Brooks is hidden underneath all the dust and gas in the central blob in the center of the image, taken at the 4.3-meter Lowell Discovery Telescope. T expanding ejecta from the late-July outburst can be seen as a faint two-tailed or two-horned structure at larger distances from the blob.
