Anonymous Coward User ID: 20685413 Australia 11/17/2013 02:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The trajectory will not change, because no external forces are involved. It's simple Newtonian mechanics. The center of gravity of the two parts will follow exactly the same trajectory as an intact comet would have done. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34407246 Though clearly the suns effects have split it...and...don't forget the internal force from actually splitting means unpredictability... |

Lord Kinbote User ID: 21482239 United States 11/17/2013 02:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ISON has a 56.45% chance of hitting the Earth. That figure is increasing daily according to my sources. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50123991 That figure is totally wrong according to my sources. decimal point is wrong move it one step right, and we're there. Batten down the hatches, bring in the tomato plants, and begin the panic sex; Shit just got real son. |

It's simple Newtonian mechanics. The center of gravity of the two parts will follow exactly the same trajectory as an intact comet would have done. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34407246 Completely wrong. Gravity will always be an external force on any object in space, even if it's light years away out in deep space -- there will always be a gravitational force pushing and pulling objects. With separation there will always be the unpredictability at first because gravitational forces are exerted in different ways -- so I trump your Newton with Newton's first law: Anything can fucking happen. |

Ford Prefect User ID: 49861128 Brazil 11/17/2013 02:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.facebook.com (secure)] Quoting: peperino IX 47331455 COMET C/2012 S1 (ISON) update November 16, 2013 from CBET 3715 H. Boehnhardt, C. Tubiana, N. Oklay, and J. B. Vincent, Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Katlenburg-Lindau; and U. Hopp, C. Ries, M. Schmidt, A. Riffeser, and C. Goessl, Astronomical Institute, Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich, report the detection of coma wings in Laplace-filter-processed CCD exposures of comet C/2012 S1 obtained with the 0.4-m telescope of the Mt. Wendelstein Observatory on Nov. 14.16-14.21 and 16.16-16.21 UT. The arclet-like wings appeared in opposite direction from the nucleus at position angles 15 and 195 deg on Nov. 14 and at p.a. 25 and 205 deg on Nov. 16. The coma wings extended straight from the nucleus for about 4700 km on Nov. 14 and 13500 km on Nov. 16 on either side of the extended radius vector and continued in streamers of the plasma tail. No coma wings were found in similar exposures obtained on Nov. 13. The coma wings suggest the presence of two or more sub-nuclei with individual expanding atmospheres in the overall cometary coma and may indicate recent nucleus splitting in the comet. Btw did anyone VERIFY the authenticity of OP's post??? Facebook? Really?? It's a tough galaxy. If you want to survive, you've gotta know...where your towel is. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 48460261 South Korea 11/17/2013 02:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is probably true since "The arclet-like wings appeared in opposite direction from the nucleus at position angles 15 and 195 deg" If it slows down AND turns I will A)be reminded of a prediction made on GLP that it will do that & B)politely excuse myself to go put on fresh underwear. Yeah, that was that mole guy who's been saying that. I read a thread here about two weeks ago when someone was posting some of moles shit. He said the tail will turn red, and we should pay careful attention when any of these things happen. He even said something about when it's reported to break-up, but I can't remember what he said mole said. Anyone? |
