Anonymous Coward User ID: 1129585 Canada 02/20/2014 11:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ALERT!! Am I the only one disturbed by the last comet that was supposed to swing by Earth? How does it just disappear? This thing could be on a collision course with Earth and we wouldn't even know it! Its not in this case but how does one 'miscalculate' the trajectory for a comet this big and this close?
This should not happen in today's time. |

What was an unknown whether the comet would survive perihelion so close to the Sun. The answer, as it happened, turned out to be no. |
