i have recently purchased a supposed chico impact melt
as i am a big fan of it. all the others i have look
like, well, chico- w/ bubbles, solid areas, etc. this
one, however... just looks like a meteorite- metal,
dark matrix, a few pores. are there areas of the

Hi Again Listees,
With regards to Comet 17P (Holmes) estimated at under 3.5 Km in diameter,
and being twice as far from the Earth as the planet Mars:
How could it be one sixteenth as bright as Mars and an easy object in the
night sky with an almost Full Moon? No doubt it has a lot of ice
The size of the comet core is largely irrelevant. What matters is the
size of the coma, since that's what is reflecting the light. And an
active comet can easily have a coma many times larger than Mars. In
reality, active comets are amongst the largest objects in the Solar
System, even though

You are right. This is a phenomenal event!

of my students) all could convince ourselves that it did not quite

That is the correct location. There can't be two of them.
In some locations (like mine), that is the sky coordinates of
the Great Cloudy Nebula, as Walter called it. And, of course,
the sky to the southwest is clear, where it doesn't matter.

Good fortune shines on comet observers in Plymouth, Massachusetts. A break
of 15 minutes in the cloud cover allowed us an easy view of Comet Holmes.
Quite unstarlike but not the ordinary hazy comet. A sharp object more
planetlike than any comet I've seen. Probably due to its unusual brightening

Too mnay objects running around.
1 AU = 149,600,000 km
Comet Holmes = 1.6345 AU from earth this evening

This gives a distance of 244,500,000 km
Speed of light is 299,800 km/sec
So Light Distance = 816 seconds (give or take)
