SUNDIVING COMET: Astronomers are paying close attention to a
newly-discovered comet, C/2012 S1 (ISON), which is heading for
a remarkably close encounter with the sun. Fierce solar heat
could turn Comet ISON into a bright

Hi Ron/List,
Given the length of the current arc (270 days), and the consistency of
the
photometry over that time, I will go out on a limb and say that this
will
almost certainly become the brightest comet that has ever been seen --
by
a significant margin -- by most people alive today.
What's
Given it might be as bright or brighter than the full Moon, what size will it
appear, comparatively speaking??

Some early estimates are that close to perihelion, the comet's tail
could span more than 90 degrees as seen from earth. Haven't read
any estimates yet on the expected angular size of the coma surrounding
the nucleus. Probably no way to predict since the composition and
size of the nucleus are not
Pete,
That's right, no evidence for an angrite composition on the surface of
Mercury -- at least not yet. Angrites have far too much FeO in the
silicates to match the spectra of Mercury. Also, angrites are among
the oldest igneous rocks in the solar system (SAH 99555 is probably
the oldest known

Congratulations Rob, of falling into a spectacular find. Also mahalo for your

pretty darn cool too.

Thank you, THANK YOU! everybody.
What a flood of emails and phone-calls! I really did not expect that
huge a response.
But I am delighted!
And now I will respond to each and everyone of you.
Warning: there are a few duplications and the first one will get it.
Again thank you very much.
And
Wow...looking forward to that if predictions are true.

There is always the possibility of an unexpected outburst. Just a few
years back, we saw that with comet Holmes (2007 or 2008?). That comet
provided a lot of great observing for weeks before it faded and nobody
saw that outburst coming. Under moderately bright urban skies, Holmes
achieved naked

Yes, this COULD be a real beauty but let's not forget we've been
fooled before. Definitely worth keeping an eye on but let's not get our
hopes TOO high just yet.
After all they CAN and are often unpredictable.

Hi All,
Been a little slow to report this to the Meteorite List -- got a little
side-tracked with comet C/2012 S1, and was waiting to do a little more
analysis to confirm the solution.
Let me start with the analysis result, since it's pretty exciting:
the UK bolide of 21 September 2012 was an

The epic of Gilgamesh is a great tale. Here is what I think it is
about:

From the start, I have thought that these are impact vapor condensates, and
not the water mineral accretions that NASA's Mars specialists have insisted.
