Hi Astromut!
Whatever happened when you went down to South America a few years back to do some photography? Did you ever make it down there? If you did I must have missed the Thread you made from that adventure. Glad to see you back home.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77125760


I went to South Africa, not South America. I had a great time. Saw stars have never seen before, saw the magellanic clouds, saw alpha centauri, and went on safari. Ironically the best photograph I've ever taken ended up being a leopard. He stared right up at me right as I clicked the shutter. It was a perfect moment that I don't think I'll ever top.

My guess is that they knew it was breaking up a long time ago. I assume that NASA and the like are in possession of very powerful telescopes not available to the general population.

Retail price is north of $8,000. on the used market it can be had for significantly cheaper than that though. Probably less than $2,500.

then why didnt it break up last time it came around?

I dont understand how a comet size of half the sun jist disintegrates in a vacuum space which has no resistance.

This is probably a fragment of a larger comet and this may well be the fragment's first approach to the sun on its own. The orbit is extremely similar, almost identical, to the great comet of 1844. If it had survived this encounter the final orbit on its way out would have already started diverging from the great comet of 1844 due to differences in the positions of the planets between then and now. This suggests to me that it's a fairly recent fragment and may have been part of a larger singular comet until one orbit prior to 1844. See the end of this video for the full breakdown:

Re: Comet ATLAS Disintegration Live Stream! *Live Again Tonight!
yea i know he said "no this will not threaten earth" but correct me if im wrong doesnt that mean that there will be little pieces flying off chaotically in different trajectories?

i mean comon man how is that not a threat?

hopefully im wrong but i wont be surprised if we have another similiar russian Chelyabinsk meteor event
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76233172


If we do it won't be from this comet. It does not intersect Earth's orbit, it's not even close. Space is huge and this comet is flying fast. The velocity imparted during the breakup is not even going to be close to what it would take to send any debris to Earth. I will do another video following this up and going into detail on that using a simulator and the orbit that I've calculated from all of these observations.

You’re the best. Thank you for all of the insight you give us brother. Much appreciated!
