Talk:19P/Borrelly

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Why is it so bright?

I'd like the article to explain: The comet article states that comets are less reflective than asphalt. Why does Borrelly appear to be so bright in this photo? Tempshill 20:39, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

It looks actually pretty dark to me :)... But seriously, this image was created and processed with that fact in mind, so it shows artificially large contrasts. Awolf002 03:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
