Hello All, In mid-April we discussed the source of the zodiacal glow. I just wanted to let you know that there is an imformative article in the "News Notes" section of the June 2010, Sky & Telescope issue, p. 16.
Two things, in particular, caught my attention: 1. The short-period comets turn out to account for virtually all of the zodiacal light 2. The zodiacal light is the brightest thing in the solar system after the Sun (as viewed from a great distance), outshining even Venus. Best wishes, Bernd ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
