This view perfectly captures the comet's two tails—one of dust and ice particles, and another of ionised gas.
The particulate tail shows remarkable flow structures that reflect how the comet's nucleus is coming apart with decreased solar distance. The ion tail points directly away from the Sun.

Tomorrow about a third of Perseverance rover staff will be laid off, despite the mission being the penultimate step in a decades long effort to bring samples back from mars.
Reckless, needless budget cuts intended to hinder the pursuit of knowledge.

A recent vista from Mars obtained by the Perseverance Rover on its 1635th Martian day, or 'Sol', Clouds far above the eternal dust pall are unusually well shown in this afternoon view. This is a mosaic of two wide angle color Navcam images.
