These may be exhaust plumes from ice geysers on the comet's surface, which are opening in response to increasing solar heat. James's broader view of the comet shows a sharp bend in the comet's tail (circled). This is almost certainly caused by a gust of solar wind or, perhaps, a passing CME.

Mar 12, 2024 4:01 pmAstronomers around the globe are keeping a watchful eye on Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks as it races closer to the sun for a spectacular encounter in April. While most focus on the comet's breathtaking tail, growing longer each night, Norwegian astronomer Jan Erik Vallestad took a different approach.
Vallestad opted for a closer examination of the comet's core, and his observations revealed something intriguing: a spiral shape. "The image went through moderate stretching in Pixinsight to enhance the core's structure," explained Vallestad. "This was possible because the core wasn't saturated in the original data."
