Comet NEOWISE through my telescope. Yes, it’s still there. Currently exiting the solar system at 100,000 mph — tail first, of course, since comet tails always point away from the Sun. [iPhone 11Pro. 4 sec. Tele-Vue NP101] https://t.co/CC4ngyz18u — PolitiTweet.org

@Alex_E_Benton @Sony Nice clean shot. Next time, try to get the whole Big Dipper in there. A 50-mm lens should accomplish that. The comet will be smaller, but the picture will be more interesting. — PolitiTweet.org

My bad. The Comet is exiting the “inner” Solar system. It will return in 7,000 years. Would have to be going much faster to exit the Solar System entirely. — PolitiTweet.org

@neiltyson Is it exiting the solar system? I thought it was going to swing back around in a few thousand years.
