**Cheating with comets**
**Francesco Meschia**

Like cats, comets have tails and only do what they want. Which is rarely the same thing we’d like to do, namely to take pictures of them. Imaging them through a telescope always requires some level of cheating. We’ll go through some basic comet processing with C/2025 R2 (SWAN) and learn a trick or two.

The Imaging SIG meets roughly every month online to discuss topics about imaging. The SIG is open to people with absolutely no experience but want to learn what it’s all about, but experienced imagers are also more than welcome, indeed, encouraged to participate.
