For a start the Youtube vid should be thrown in the bin followed by the blog link too just for making sh** up.

I don't know where he got them crazy numbers from as the comet is said to reach a magnitude -7

I am talking about the other write up's on this comet that came before this guys blog/youtube which said it would reach mag -7 and the national geographic link don't even talk about mag.

Yep, my sons dream is becoming true. He had a nightmare about

4 years ago that has something to do with a desert, pyramid

in the desert with 2 suns in the sky. He said there was the

man dressed in all black laughing as dead people were

scattered through the desert. He still has this nightmare

from time to time and wakes up screaming. Creepy...

Sorry, to correct you: your title is absolutely wrong.

The magnitude (brightness) scale is not linear, it's logarithmic.

That means an object with Mag -2 is 2.512 times brighter than an object with Mag -1.

Regarding C/2012 S1:
Estimated peak brightness at perihelion: Mag -13
Brightness Sun: Mag -26.7

Brighness of the comet compared to the sun: 1/400,000
Or, in other words, the sun is 400,000 times brighter than the comet not 2 times as stated in the title.

No second sun - doom off


Please do some research before you post something like this.

So I got a bit pissy lol I just don't get how when this story got posted just 2 days ago on this very forum they were saying it would reach -7 and then just days later with no change in the comet really they shove the numbers up to -16 and yet both the -7 or -10 or 16 or -26 its all just a prediction.

Make your own calculation.

But since I assume you can't, I make it simple for you:

Sun: Mag -26.7
Moon: Mag -13
Sun 400,000 times brighter than Moon

Moon: Mag -13
Comet: Mag -13
Comet as bright as the Moon
Sun 400,000 times brighter than Moon
Sun 400,000 times brighter than comet

Got it?

A Man Has Got to Know His Limitations

I am just a sinner trying to make it to heaven!

Romans 8:35-39
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

An arising of two suns

Our Lady of Emmitsburg To the World

June 1, 2008

through Gianna Talone Sullivan

My dear little children, praised be Jesus !

Children, for the last 20 years I have oftentimes spoken of change.

I have told you that there is no time for fear; there is only time for change.

You must know by now, that I have recently spoken of AN ARISING OF "TWO SUNS".

WHEN YOU SEE THE TWO SUNS ON THE HORIZON, you must know, that this is a time of change, a time of this new beginning about which I have spoken to you before.

AFTER YOU SEE THE TWO SUNS, there is ONLY A SHORT TIME before you will see a tremendous change in weather.


*** In the wake of the comet catastrophy there will be much less food available. Moreover the bad gases of the tail of the comet will mix with the air of the atmosphere of the earth.

**** The two suns denote the sun proper and the comet appearing near the sun.

To teach how to understand logarithmic scale.

Each number of magnitude is 2.51 higher or lower.

i.e.

1 is 2.51 times brighter then 2.
1 is 6.3001 times brighter then 3 (2.51 * 2.51)
1 is 15.81 times brighter then 4 (2.51^3)
1 is 39.7 times brighter then 5 (2.51^4)
and so on.

Sun is -26 and the comet is -16.

This means the comet is (1/(2.51^10)) or (1/9925)= 0.0001 the Suns output.

0.0001/1 = 0.01/100

The comet is 1 hundreth of a percent as bright as the Sun.

However, place a mirror behind a candle and the output of light goes up due to reflection adding to the light from the candle.

This comet will reflect light from the Sun back towards Earth. It will only be a small fraction more BUT, in space where the temp system is isolated by vacuum...any change is reflected where we live.

If the Suns output causes a 2 degree temp rise, weather will get more severe.

If this comet explodes on the far side of the Sun from heat stress, the reflecting amount of light would be far greater. Almost enough to cause concern.

Remember how big comet Holmes got? Imagine a violent explosion when close to the Sun. Another Holmes up close.

I understand that. I am noting the reflected light will be additional to daylight, versus reflection at night like the Moon.

I also want to point out a bit of uncertainty. This comet has never been grazed by the Sun's heat, according to official reports. The outgasing could be more intense then anticipated. The comet might explode, if there are neon gases present the tail "could" glow with extreme proximity to the Suns energy.

The outgasing stage, when the comet is at it's hottest section of orbit, could be very interesting and is entirely unpredictable to some degree.

It will not harm the innocent.

You could say fuck it, grab some cheap food supplies to last you a bit (Sell all that junk you won't need if you're really desperate. Can't bury you with it) and some seeds and go find some natural place where you can live off the land. Throw some seeds down and if you ever feel like you have no place to go...

Go there. Have trust. Have faith. It's better than nothing.

It costs you ten bucks for a huge bag of white rice that will last you for ages. Asian people live so long partly due to eating white rice y'know. (brown rots due to oils) and ten bucks for seeds.

What have YOU wasted twenty bucks on?
