[quote:El Astronauta:MV8xNjE0MzQ4XzI2NjY0MjQzX0I2ODNFMEU0] [quote:Baldrick:MV8xNjE0MzQ4XzI2NjY0MTIyXzk1OThDOUFE] Apart from the blogger stating the comet elenin is disintegrating, I see nothing else to back his claims. Where are the new photos? Mind providing a direct link please? [/quote] It is only a conjecture based on the pictures you can see on the link page - scroll down a little [/quote]

,,8h magnitude - in process of disintegrating. Will not survive perihelion.
Low western evening sky."
,,Observations from August 20 indicate that comet Elenin underwent a dramatic fade.
The comet is in the process of disintegrating on its way towards perihelion
and thus will no longer become potentially observable with the unaided eye."
,,C/2010 X1 Elenin
2011 Aug 27.37UT
Left: 10x10second exposures. Right 15x10 second exposures with galaxy NGC 4348.
C11 SCT and Starlight Express MX7c CCD imager.
Comet appears to be in the process of disintegration."
