Will this comet surpass the magnitude of comet hale bob of 1997? and this comet's arrival is way to eerie as it shows up right after saddams death
mabus will soon die, then will come,
A horrible undoing of man and beast,
We will see vengeance at once,
One hundred powers, thirst, famine, when passes the comet.

Could this be THE COMET?

hopefully there'll be some pics? No chance of seeing it here, rain rain & more rain

Thats great.Have you guys any idea how long the comet will be visible for?
Will it be visible with the naked eye?

Oh geeeze, I forgot about that.

I am of the opinion that Mabus is Osama and Bush. osaMABUsh. (Bush still has to escape the 20 year curse.) I think 'the comet' will be when Osama and Bush have both died. Of course, we might not ever know when Osama dies ...

Maybe Im a little lost, but why would a comet have anything to do with famine or george bush?
Are you quoting Nastrodamus or something?

Know what I think? Its a ball of bits of rock and ice floating through space. Its not carrying a plague or anything.

I SAW IT!


Okay guys ... I it's finally a crisp clear night and I can see it out of my second floor bedroom window. It's right where the space guys said it would be and it's BRIGHT.

I can see it without aid. It's a naked-eye comet. WOW!
No tail. But bright.

Great find Flyersfan!

Jbird..You bet.. I'll try shooting it asap..

thanks flyersfan

I have to wonder if the appearance of this "bright new comet" could be related to the current events of today and next few days.

Isn't said in several places, not just bible prophecy... that comet sightings are correlated to events on earth?? what was that cross in the sky thing with a comet or something like that from a while back?? and then we had the mysterious rock and the russian rocket incident and not to mention that prior to all of this in mid december we had that solar storm or cme headed our way... ....

FlyersFan! Thank you so much for the reminder!

Totally awesome, and the first I have ever seen. Amazing.

That is what I first thought as well..

Mabus backwards is Subam .... Subam... Sounds alot like Suddam. A French person who would not recognize an Arab name would surly mix it up, and to spell it backwards would not be uncommon.

The comet which I did not even know was coming, has never been in the news.. passes what the middle of the month. Guess we will see......

I saw it also, was wondering what is was until I saw this thread. It was really brilliant, beautiful sight.

Just to be clear, can you also see Venus, which is in the same general area?

Two totally different objects. When you see it, you'll know.

i'm getting my telescope out right now. i dont know if i'll be able to see anything though because i've never used my telescope at this location.

It's 9:25 pm EST now. (depending where you are) Too late for over here on the East Coast. 1/2 hour after sunset and 1/2 hour before sunrise are best.
