In a breath-taking snowy Mount Etna, the bluish-green Comet 2022-E3 (named the Neanderthal comet) raised above its right slope among the stars. A single image transmit a feeling of strength and delicacy. It is possible to see the volcano internal walls through the fracture that caused part of the conical building to collapse. Some hot spots appear in the dark: they are fumaroles from which volcanic vapors come out.
