Comet hunter
In light of recent events in the sky over our planet, the subject of comets has become quite urgent. Especially because the comet Panstarr this year will not be the only flying within sight from Earth.
We decided to make a small selection of photos of "hunters" of comets made in different places and at different times. One of the most successful pictures Panstarr over Los Angeles. Picture taken March 12, 2013 Gene Blevins.
Panstarr over Las Vegas. All the same March 12 Ethan Miller.
