73P speeds up

73P is now picking up pace as closest approach looms (and you have to get up earlier in the morning to see it), it's possible to see it move during an observing session. There are still plenty of amazing shots of the comet, especially the new break-up of 73P-B from Carl Hergenrother, Dave Strange, Clay Sherrod and Gianaluci Masi and co.
