Ison

That's all we need, an evil portent from the beginning of time, lighting up the night skies and inciting the unenlightened. Personally, I find it cool beyond belief.

Oh, sure. It's not much to look at right now but when the Isonites start sucking down cyanide laced Flaming Homers, you'll be going like, what was that thread about that comet...

Comet ISON, if it survives trip around the sun, could bring spectacular sky show


As Comet ISON hurtles towards the sun, its million-year-long journey through our solar system may end with its violent death — or a spectacular sky show.

Shouldn't you be making predictions of earthquakes or WWIII.


I predict a professional sports team will lose and some people will cry like babies.

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

I predict I'll be looking up.

 

[parodyluvr75]

I predict I will be eating turkey.

 

[parodyluvr75]

What time is it visible?

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

Nighttime?

The latest news: the comet didn't make it!

Or maybe it did!

Seriously, my newsfeed is divided on the subject. I guess we'll know more momentarily...

Both CNN and BBC are reporting Ison is still around, but nothing on space.com or nasa.gov. However, I found this quote from earthsky.org;

"By Thursday evening, at least one scientist – Karl Battams at NASA’s Comet ISON Observing Campaign – wrote on Twitter:
Alright we’re calling it, and you heard it here first: We believe some small part of #ISON’s nucleus has SURVIVED perihelion."

Comet ISON's leftovers fade away, right before a satellite's eyes
