Description
Čeština: Rozpad komety Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 na snímcích ze Spitzer Space Telescope, kanál 24 mikrometrů, 4.-6.5.2006
English: This infrared image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope shows the broken Comet 73P/Schwassman-Wachmann 3 skimming along a trail of debris left during its multiple trips around the sun. The flame-like objects are the comet's fragments and their tails, while the dusty comet trail is the line bridging the fragments.
