Hey folks,
I used ‪@dwarflabofficial‬ #Dwarf2 smart telescope to capture the "green pearl of the night sky" the Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF that visits us in the nights to come.
It's a long period comet - one orbit is 50.000 years - and a beautiful sight in the night sky. Sadly it's not bright enough to be seen with the naked eye so I grabed my mobil DWARF system and pointed it towards the comet.
Even with the tiny aperture (24mm) I was able to resolve the comet with only 20min of exposure time. Not a perfect image but a fun thing to do!

Cheers and clear skies!
-Chris
