APOD 24 November 2013 Comet Hale-Bopp Over Indian Cove
This picture was actually taken on April 6 1997, it was imaged from the Indian Cove Campground in the Joshua Tree National Park in California. They used a flashlight to illuminate the rocks in order to get the six minute exposure. The comet was visible to the nake eye for an entire year before returning to the outer solar system and fading.
