We have ISON incoming. There is a possibility it is not just a single object, but could be a cloud of stuff. No doubt it’s close approach to the sun will manage to bust a few pieces lose...
And I have been trying to find orbital Java diagrams, as best as I can determine, Earth will pass DIRECTLY through it’s outgoing debris field in January.
Happy New Year!!
Have not been keeping up with ISON and was unaware. Those comets are real bruisers. The one which hit Jupiter made a hole the size of nearly Earth if not as large as Earth. Happy New Year, djf! May our homes dodge another bullet from space. Would surmise we have been extremely lucky for a long long time. Don’t know when our time will be up but it is for certain the cosmic universe holds wonders we humans will never understand and if we do ever become close to knowing or understanding anything those cosmic bullets may come in droves. The demons like throwing things ... LOL.
