108P/Ciffreo 2022-Jan-05 Mike Olason

Heard there was an outburst so imaged 108P on 2022 January 5 (also have images from 2021 Dec 6 that I will have to process someday) and found a coma/tail complex that was 60"x40" with a bright central nucleus area. It appears the outburst ejected material at a PA of 90 degrees from the nucleus since that is the brighter area of the coma. Astrometrica calculate a magnitude of this entire area to be G=14.8 using 6x300s images with no filter.
