Last night I used a massive telescope and super short exposures to try and keep as much detail as possible near the comet's Nucleus, and it revealed a series of "jets", likely sublimated water and chunks of rock and dust, streaming off the core. And check out this crazy timelapse of the Lemmon comet. You can see how the chunks in the tail stream off into space! Source: @AJamesMcCarthy @EverythingScience
