Description:
Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) imaged on January 22, 2023, at magnitude 5.8 and only a few hours before the Earth's crossing through the comet's orbital plane, the dust tail (to the left) and the dust antitail (to the right) are almost aligned. The ionic tail, weaker than in previous days, projects a little above the dust tail.
