Earth to pass through Catalina debris

On the 11th of December someone captured
A photo of comet Catalina
The photo showed blobs and swirls in the
Tail
The first reason I heard was that Catalina broke Apart at perihelion
There are multiple chunks in the nucleus
The latest theory was that Catalina was
Suffering from a magnetic storms
That could strip the tail off the comet

But to me it looks like my worst fears
Have come true
Catalina broke apart at perihelion and
Has now become a string of Pearls
Like the shoemaker comet that hit
Jupiter

If this is so then debris will be scattered
Right were our earth travels through

The 12th is when the comet is at its closet
To the earth
The comet meets the earths trajectory

So when the earth passes through this area
In the next few months all that debris will
Fall to the earth


I have predicted a comet to pass
And debris in the tail will fall upon the earth

We will know if this is the comet on the
21st of January
It will ignite like a star when it reaches
The constilation Ursa minor
And for Severn days it will blaze
Two sun's in the sky

Well, since I missed the Geminids shower due to cloud cover....
maybe I will get a second chance to view some spectacular lights in the sky...

Here's an article you may enjoy!

Comet Catalina


Interesting to note that we will never see this comet again.

Never miss another star or space event! I found this program that is awesome. In MIssouri we tend to have cloud cover almost all winter.Then there is the light pollution in the city. This makes it almost impossible to view anything at all in the night sky. I end up missing every event! I found this program that lets you see what is going on up there.Some of you may already know of it,but those that don't,you can download it for free.

Awesome!
Thank you!

OP, are you predicting total devastation from these loose chunks, or just isolated parts of Earth?

My Doom sundial is at high noon right now, continue....

This makes Me think of that passage , I think in the Bible, (?), that said like, 'Fire will Rain from the Sky'...
I'll jump in with a prediction:

It will shower Us with Meteors/Meteorites that will hit in a Fairly Wide path across the Earth. Chicago will get Hit by some, as will St' Louis, parts of Michigan and Canada, and some will fall into the Great Lakes...

Oh, noes! Run for the hills! Seriously, OP, what are you afraid of? Any pieces left over will burn up in the atmosphere well before anything hits the ground.

OOOh, this comet is supposed to have properties of an asteroid and chunks of asteroid are worth megabucks. I could use a chunk landing near the driveway so I can sell it and buy another bread machine and some peanut butter cups.

I see opportunity in things instead of fearing them.

I suppose everyone will have a piece of this comet and there will be no market. Now I'm getting depressed.

Thanx Piney for This Thread. I know some here are mocking this.
But They will be the ones Who are Sorry if The Debris We,
will or May encounter, is of such size/weight that it will NOT Burn up in Our Atmosphere...

Even if 'They' are not directly affected by the Debris,
I would hope that They will at least drop in an apology for such remarks...
(Doubtful I know but...)

I am in the Camp of "At Least Be aware" of such events as this one...

Again, Thank You for the Share! Have a Good One, , Syx...

It's made of ICE. Ice melts when it gets hot. Any "pieces" will totally evaporate before they "hit" the ground. Really, Chicken Littles; get a grip.

Ice could be made of a different element or compound with a much higher melting point than h2o, and could still land as ice if the chunks were large enough to make it through the atmosphere. Like a falling block of frozen Han Solo, for example. Although I presume we are confident this ice is made of water?

Great point tho, hah you are probably correct.

Until You used Grade School Tactics and called Me, and others I presume, Chicken Little, I was going to Thank You for that information of The Comet, (or Asteroid?), possibly being made of Ice. I had not thought of what this was made of...

"Ice melts when it gets hot." Was totally unnecessary. I am Mechanically Inclined...

Also, I am not freakin out on this. I thought the information provided was well intended for those Whom may not have known of this matter...

I also Think that info such as this is nice to have EVEN THOUGH NOTHING MAY HAPPEN. If something does happen, then those Whom took this info as helpful fact, will not be caught off guard. Not much anyway...

If Someone had not heard anything at all about this, the shock of the situation may take hold to such a degree, that it will incapacitate them to the extent that it may leave them wide open to harm, or they may even harm others in their panic driven frenzy to try to save their own lives...

If "chunks of Ice" from this comet ever made it to Earth... It would be at cosmic velocity... You would not find ice chunks, but probably a huge hole.

It also melts under pressure. Cluck-cluck!

Just found this very interesting paper should read it bit of a eye opener

Nostradamus predicted fire from the sky

As for Pressure causing Ice to Melt:

"Why Certainly ",
It does! ...


Thank You for that addition to some of the causes for Ice to Melt!... I'll add that to the rest of the Facts tucked securely into My Brain. Now, at times, retrieving those Facts can be a little tricky, (for Me); Due to My thoughts cloud being, well, cloudy! LMAO!!!

a reply to: errorcode

I had read that prediction, in days past! I also saw it from another source...
Of which where that was, right now, escapes Me...
But, Thank You for Your Reply to Me! ...

Cheers!! Syx...
