[meteorite-list] Zodiacal glow revisited

2010-05-16 Thread bernd . pauli
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

Just currious, and perhaps I'm not the only one with this question. How 
do you pronounce zodiacal?

Eric
