we as in the people that know these things obviously.
 Quoting: green_girl


so as a 'graphic designer' how do you 'know these things' other than repeat what NASA puts on their website?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38722267


yea, because no one can know more than one thing in life. Do you think i dont have interests or studies outside of graphic design?
I know what I know because i know it. I know ison broke uo because I watched it happen. I know it id dead, because i see the images that show no new gases or dust or tail formation.
besides the point. i gave evidence. where is the evidence to the contrary?
 Quoting: green_girl


I gave you and astro a bunch of evidence to the contrary, but you guys ignored me or pushed me aside because my explanation from a physics standpoint went over your head.


Ison was obviously intact when it went around the sun, and it continued out-gassing as far as we could track it on lasco C3.

Bruce Gary even posted on his website that Ison could have a trajectory change when going around the sun, but you ignored my explanation of that from a physics standpoint.

Bruce Gary claims Ison is dead because it has a low visible magnitude, which means almost nothing from an astrological standpoint. Without infrared, x-ray, or stereo measurements on top of visible data, you aren't getting the full picture and making claims off of almost nothing.

I can go on if you wish. It's pretty simple physics to understand that a body in space can have trajectory changes from an enormous amount of factors, and also if Ison fragmented, it would lose visible magnitude, but it wouldn't lose potency to cause destruction on a planet if only one size-able fragment hit us. Remember, a 30m wide object destroys cities, a 150m wide object destroys parts of continents, and anything larger is, well fuck, lets party.

rant

And just to clarify, I'm not saying anything is headed our way, I am merely pointing out that it is a possibility from a physics standpoint.

your evidence was pretty much debunked as it was presented. I know you disagree, and that is fine for you.
Yes, things explode and it can alter trajectory just not going hundreds of thousands of miles around a sun. any changes that it could make in trajectory would only become apparent in subsequent orbits, and as ison is never coming back it is a moot point.

My evidence was never debunked and never will be, because it is BASIC PHYSICS, which you and astro CLEARLY don't understand.

He was using theories based on planet orbits from the early 1600's to argue a comet going perihelion, which is idiotic to say the least.

And what I bold-ed is 100% wrong. You are basing an idea off thin air.

Anywho, I'm not trying to argue. You can also believe whatever you want, even if it is %100 wrong.

"Could have" and "if ison fragmented" is speculative language, not math.

So you're merely pointing out that it is a possibility, right? In other word, you don't exactly know shit, right? If you want to infuse scientific credibility to your speculation, why don't you make a calculation to confidently state how much percentage that possibility is instead of speculating with ambiguous multi-interpretation word which isn't scientific at all? If you use ambiguous word like possibility, anything is possible, even ison ended up in yo ass is possible, why not? the important question is the mathematical percentage of the probability. So you could calculate that number?

Well it is a 100% guarantee that fragments from Ison will hit Earth. The size of the fragments is the issue at hand.

And not everything is possible according to modern physics, so save your insults for someone else.

For me to track a fragment specifically would require a lot of equipment on my part, which I don't own. So unless you want to buy me at least $50,000 in scientific equipment, I can't give you exact numbers. That is why observatories were made, and supercomputers are used.

Re: Comet ISON Doom
no doom, op. no proof of doom. Ison was broken apart even before it went around the sun. It was only a mile or so big, so any pieces are smaller than that, and still heading on the original path. Far away from us. Doom off. for real.
 Quoting: green_girl


No proof of this either. It's actually more disturbing to see them take such a whimsical perspective in light of the fact that there is no evidence other than to support a cover up of information.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50023508


So many assumptions, so many flaws in Never A Straight Answer's story, misdirection, obfuscation, REPEATED chunks of missing footage(not to mention that the resident ex-spurts, status quo shills contradict Themselves, contradict each other & contradict their infallible idols at Never A Straight Answer), numerous "oops! mea culpa's!" & still the resident ex-spurts & status quo shills say that the Comet, which they say was destroyed, is EXACTLY where Never A Straight Answer said that it would be, doing EXACTLY what They said that it would be doing, even though They can't provide proof, because the nonexistent Comet is a "cloud of dust", to faint to be able to see.
Yup. I'm convinced, based on the amazing way that Never A Straight Answer handled the coverage of Comet ISON, from the start, right up till the well documented & absolutely irrefutable footage showing the complete annihilation, during perihelion & the flawless arguments of the tag team resident ex-spurts & status quo shills, that the dust cloud, that was Comet ISON, is nothing more than a figment of their collective imaginations. Yup, 100% convinced.

Neither one of you understand what they said. They're talking about dust emitted by the comet prior to perihelion, that we might encounter when we cross the point of closest intersection between our orbit and ISON's orbit. Again, that point corresponds to where ISON had been at the start of November, not after perihelion.

Re: Comet ISON Doom
no doom, op. no proof of doom. Ison was broken apart even before it went around the sun. It was only a mile or so big, so any pieces are smaller than that, and still heading on the original path. Far away from us. Doom off. for real.

No proof of this either. It's actually more disturbing to see them take such a whimsical perspective in light of the fact that there is no evidence other than to support a cover up of information.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50023508


on the contrary there is much evidence to support what i just said. we know ison is small, we have measured it. we know ison will travel on its projected path because every comet we have ever seen does. We know that ison broke up before perihelion because it stopped producing new gas. We know ison is not a comet anymore because it is producing no new dust or outgassing events.
there is a lot of evidence for my side of the debate. Any for the opposition?
 Quoting: green_girl


Wow the science channel documentary about Ison I watched contradicted a lot of this statement. Perhaps you guys should all get the story straight. They even showed footage of how it even brightened again after dimming just after perihelion, when it started out gassing again.

Re: Comet ISON Doom
well yea, except for the fact that the Chelyabinsk meteor was an unidentified object, and ISON has been identified, and ya know, tracked, before it was destroyed by the sun
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50347529



Nasa told you it was destroyed by the sun,thats does not make it a FACT


if nasa missed that meteor over Russia a while back it means they are not worth listening to...as for the Chelyabinsk meteor...its a sign of the POWER of what can happen....
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 51399499


nasa didnt cover this meteor up

A) it was under the threshold for objects which are tracked. Nasa only tracks objects of a certain size, 1km or more i think.

B) its approach to earth was largely shielded by the sun, makeing it close to imposible to collect any info on it prior to the event (obviously not the case with ISON)

I wonder how many different angles They have of this footage & which one They showed us.
 Quoting: Reinvigorated Being


they have multiple angles, and all of them are readily available for you to watch if you bothered to take the time to find them
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50347529


Or, mayhaps, I won't bother asking legitimate questions & just TROLL around, being an asshole, to random posters. Is that fun? Doesn't really sound like fun. Nah, I'll just keep asking relevant questions & trying to figure out what's going on with Comet ISON. You TROLLS, resident ex-spurts & status quo shills are hammering the crap out of this topic & it makes my curious mind wonder why that is.

yes, and since they filmed that show they have learned a lot about ison. for example the brightening was due to ison beginning to outgas a different kind of ice.

Re: Comet ISON Doom
We need some better explanation of the official report of how it's still Ison's first trail that will be forced back towards earth by solar radiation pressure. From what I've seen from the original article that part seemed more complex. The model just showed an image of earth spinning through a dust field..

Except its original orbit intersect with earth's... Doom is never off until end of Jan then?

5a
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 51593903


do you consider it an intersection when there is an overpass with one highway going underneath the other highway?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50347529


Go to [link to www.solarsystemscope.com]
Slide the time to Nov 1st, and tell me whether it's overpass or underneath, or its debris has a fat chance of hitting us...
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 51593903


Earth will pass through the path that the comet took on its way to the sun (pre-perihelion) but that's going to be 3+ months AFTER the comet passed through that area

Wrong.
 Quoting: Dr. Astro



You're such a fucking troll.

Nasa already said we get hit from both sides by fragments from Ison...

Go back to your cave you wretched beast.


Oh wait, this is your cave, I forgot.
 Quoting: Blades11


Yup NASA certainly did say this.
 Quoting: *Ozone Baby*


Neither one of you understand what they said. They're talking about dust emitted by the comet prior to perihelion, that we might encounter when we cross the point of closest intersection between our orbit and ISON's orbit. Again, that point corresponds to where ISON had been at the start of November, not after perihelion.
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


the link is clearly refering to ISONs tail as it went towards the sun.

the best way to understand this is take ISON as its physical nucleus out of it (fragmented or not)
this link is talking about ISONs tail ONLY
it is talking about an area of space ISON has left its tail, or dust as thats what the tail is.
in all hounesty, its not ISON
its a remnant left from its time in the solar system.

in a way what your saying is if a cme passes over earth, earth has passed through the sun
of course it has not
