Yep. Just look for Astromut's posts on pages 10-12. He confirms that the object is indeed comet C/2012 V4.

Disaster averted once again.

Still a good catch and post by OP. Simply not the Doom in which he seeks.

Forget Comet c/2012 V4 Pons-Gambart!. Watch For Approaching NEO 2012DA14!

The latest images are always beacon images. They're highly compressed so that they can be quickly downloaded at low bitrates by a wide variety of receiving dishes including amateurs who provide coverage for the beacon data.

As I predict. Comet lovejoy will approach the sun again and recharge. And then it will head straight for earth and cause a pole shift. Do you Dr. Astro contest to what I say? America could be more prepared if it was not for occult knowledge being used against them. With a divided mind I am not very happy with this.. Do you understand me correctly sir? Idol1

I would strongly recommmend Celestia as a tool to do this sort of thing. It's free and you can easily add the orbits of STEREO Behind as well as C/2012 V4 into the simulation and show how their positions relate to each other, the planets, and the stars.

Nice ... looks like this could blow Stellarium away ...5a
 Quoting: The 6th Sun


Different tools for different jobs. Celestia has its limitations as well, but it's very good for identifying objects in STEREO images because you can view the constellations and solar system from any arbitrary location, direction, and field of view. I made a little video with it just now to show the true situation with this comet and the STEREO images. I'll post the link as soon as it's uploaded.

This is not comet lovejoy nor is it going to approach the sun nearer thanVenus, nor will it get within about an AU of us, so I contest just about everything you said.

Don't know who that is, and honestly I don't see the significance of it. From earth it doesn't even do that, only from stereo behind.

Very good Dr. Astro. So could share with me the new orbital diagram of Comet Lovejoy to back your statement? How could you possibly know where it is and when it when it will be back without one? It is an honest question and I would like to see some facts.

Geez dude, have some patience. The orbital information for the comet is known. I calculated the orbit myself just now using the astrometric data and I'm currently calculating when it will return, assuming it will return any time in about the next 700 years. This takes some time, more than the 17 minutes you waited since your previous reply.

Dear Dr. That so called comet does not behave like a comet at all. I wanted to see a NASA orbital diagram. You just gave your opinions without charting its orbit in the first place.

So you said it will get no closer to the Sun than venus and nor will it be closer to earth than an AU. And now you are charting its orbit?

19,000 miles 'miss' is close.

Note NO ONE, even astro nut DOESN'T mention the PLUS/MINUS perimeters associated with the comet. Therefore, COULD be a LOT closer, or further away !

Lovejoy isn't going to return for another 600 years and is currently headed away from the sun, not towards it. I know which comet it is, it's C/2012 V4.

19000 miles? What are you even talking about? C/2012 V4 is 1.4 AUs away! I could generate the uncertainty plot if I wanted to but it's a waste of my time; it's farther from us than the sun.

My chart is accurate. All you showed was a video of its December 2011 perihelion. So? I just calculated it myself, it won't return for another 600 years. I guess you don't realize that my chart is an overhead 2 dimensional chart. Yes, it is steeply inclined to the ecliptic, would you like to see the actual orbital elements? They're more information dense than just a chart.

Dr. Astro knows the facts.

Here is the JPL orbit diagram for C/2012 V4
[link to ssd.jpl.nasa.gov]

Closest approach to Earth will be mid-March 2013, and it will get no closer than 1.2 AU--over 100 million miles.

It would be interesting to know how you calculate a comet penetrating and going through the ecliptic with 300 km/s wind speeds? I see that you are using equations with potential energy and kinetic energy. Using the suns gravitation pull and the mass of the object. Would the gravitation pull of the sun still be at the same constant with varying wind speeds on the ecliptic?

I never called you a chicken shit. I'm not even a novice in this field. but I do know a lot about the occult and what the hell is going on.

i know 300-500 years ago the study of the stars and planets was considered an occult science...
