Follow-up coverage lays out how the WEAVE Large Integral Field Unit on the William Herschel Telescope detected five ion species (N2+, CO+, CO2+, H2O+, CH+) in the comet's tail, letting researchers measure a dinitrogen-to-carbon-monoxide ratio that indicates formation below -240°C, similar to Kuiper Belt or Oort Cloud conditions.
