Caption: Figure 4.

Light curves of the color-shifted magnitudes of 103P to (top) the ZTF-r band and (middle) the ZTF-g band. Overplotted on each are 10⁵ synthetic Monte Carlo–sampled splines within measurement uncertainties. Bottom: the color evolution of 103P in ZTF (g − r) over the shared time range, with the uncertainty on each data point being estimated from the 1σ uncertainties of the splines.
