30 seconds @ 800asa through a FS102 @ f/8. I think its coming right for
us...no tail.

At 2.4 AU from the sun I doubt it can form much tail. This seems to be
a dust burst with the color it is showing rather than gas that usually
is blue or green. Light pressure will take a bit of time to act on it.
It will be interesting to see what happens. While it is approaching
us somewhat it is receding from the sun and is already in the asteroid
belt. Maybe one belted it?
