C/2017 K2 (PANSTARRS) 2022-Jun-04 Christian Harder

4.6.2022, 23:17 UT, Region SQL 20.3mag, moonlight ( 25% illuminated) and the sun stood only 14.5° under horizon

12" Dobson, V 79x

I measured:

9.5mag, DC 4s, diameter 3.3`

The comet shows a stellar false nucleus, the inner coma looks round but the core is now not in the middle.
