== Notes / Corrections ==
I have gotten feedback from several people that the 'Stars + Comet Stacking' method is not giving them good results with a colorless comet and/or artifacts like star trails. I've read that this may have to do with the consistency of the background level in the photos being stacked. If that method is not working, I suggest trying "Comet stacking" and "Standard stacking" separately, and combining the two images in Photoshop. To make the 'comet only' stack cleaner be sure to use 'kappa sigma clipping' in the lights tab. However you will likely still have to do some cleanup in Photoshop. I also failed to mention that if you hold the shift key you can manually pick the comet position when it doesn't lock on automatically. Sorry for any frustration from these oversights! Feel free to comment any further suggestions, and good luck!
