Description


Comet ISON A comet’s journey through the solar system is perilous and violent. A giant ejection of solar material from the sun could rip its tail off. Before it reaches Mars -- at some 230 million miles away from the sun -- the radiation of the sun begins to boil its water, the first step toward breaking apart. And, if it survives all this, the intense radiation and pressure as it flies near the surface of the sun could destroy it altogether. Right now, Comet ISON is making that journey. It began its trip from the Oort cloud region of our solar system and is now travelling toward the sun. The comet will reach its closest approach to the sun on Thanksgiving Day -- Nov. 28, 2013 -- skimming just 730,000 miles above the sun’s surface. If it comes around the sun without breaking up, the comet will be visible in the Northern Hemisphere with the naked eye, and from what we see now, ISON is predicted to be a particularly bright and beautiful comet. Cataloged as C/2012 S1, Comet ISON was first spotted 585 million miles away in September 2012. This is its very first trip around the sun, which means it is still made of pristine matter from the earliest days of the solar system’s formation, its top layers never having been lost by a trip near the sun. Scientists will point as many ground-based observatories as they can and at least 15 space-based assets towards the comet along the way, in order to learn more about this time capsule from when the solar system first formed. Even if the comet does not survive, tracking its journey will help scientists understand what the comet is made of, how it reacts to its environment, and what this explains about the origins of the solar system. Closer to the sun, watching how the comet and its tail interact with the vast solar atmosphere can teach scientists more about the sun itself. BEAUTIFUL ISON PHOTO FROM HUBBLE

Comete ISON Selon l’Observatoire de Lisbonne, des fragments de la comète ISON frapperont la Terre. L’Observatoire de Lisbonne a divulgué des informations importantes sur la comète ISON. Ils affirment que des fragments de la comète ISON vont frapper la Terre en décembre, en se basant sur des émulations réalisées à l’aide du supercalculateur « Tiger 2 » et d’autres modèles. Ils affirment que lorsque la comète entrera dans l’atmosphère du Soleil, sa glace changera d’une manière abrupte, se transformant en un propulseur et modifiant ainsi la trajectoire de la comète. Ils affirment que les fragments de la comète se propageront sous la forme d’un cône avec une base de 300,000 kilomètres de diamètre, ceci étant la distance de la Terre à la Lune. Ils affirment qu’après sa rencontre avec le Soleil, la comète sera extrêmement fragmentée, avec des fragments allant d’un ballon de football à la taille d’un navire. Ils disent que la propulsion de la glace va modifier la trajectoire des fragments, ce qui provoquera une pluie de fragments cométaires qui vont frapper la Terre en décembre. La comète ISON ne nécessite seulement qu’un changement de 2 degrés pour frapper la Terre. Ils ont déclaré ceci dans plusieurs forums et ils disent aussi vouloir parler plus ouvertement dans environ un mois, après le passage de la comète dans un point de calibration pour vérifier leurs calculs. Ils disent que le chemin des fragments est très similaire au chemin des éjections de masse coronale du Soleil. Curieusement, ISON pourrait faire que « Mercure devienne une Comète » à tout moment entre le 10 et le 23 novembre, et la comète ENCKE sera seulement à 2,3 million de milles de la planète Mercure, le 18 novembre, ce qui pourrait exacerber les effets d’ISON avec Mercure ? Les réseaux électriques pourraient arrêter entre le 13 et le 14 novembre … ISON pourrait faire que notre Soleil s’en prenne à la Terre alors qu’elle se rapproche de son passage le 28 novembre près du Soleil… Notre point de vue est que les pannes des réseaux électriques pourraient toutes être derrière le passage de la comète ISON … MERVEILLEUSE PHOTO DE LA COMETE VUE PAR HUBBLE

wow I thought you took the photo. I have a telescope and camera mount. but don't think i'm gonna have time to get to this. I read article today says it will not be visible very well after nov 14 due to brightness of moon...thanks for sharing this...great info...I plan on getting more familiar with my telescope later...in this year. I still have yard work to do one last time for season after our next couple 20 degree nights everything should be dormant...all the leaves have almost fallen...and should be within next couple of days. winter is telescope time as well...have a great one... chills and thrills
