96B2-252.JPG: This image of comet C/1996 B2 (Hyakutake) was taken on March 25, 1996, by Erich Kolmhofer and Herbert Raab near Linz, Austria, using a 225mm f/2.0 Schmidt Camera. It is a ten minute exposure (23:10 - 23:20 UT) on hypered TP 6415 film. The field shown here is about 6.2 degrees wide, and north is left. Unlike in the image 96B2-251.JPG, taken about 23 hours before, the comet's tail appears very "quiet" here, with several prominent streamers.
