Comets?

    Does anyone else see the little trial at the lower left corner of the image could be? I've seen a comet in around that same place in the another image, and I wanted to see if it could be the same one later. Also, if you look a little to the upper right of trial that's touching the end of the image, I'm seeing another little trial which could also be a comet.

    The image with the comet in the same place is AAZ0001gbu.

    FYI: Sometimes trails like that right on the edge are just an artifact from the image taking process.

    The second image you have above is likely one that falls into this category. The other one may or may not be in this category. If this is not a set on the edge of the larger image, then the other set to the left should have whatever the object is without it being cut off like this.
