Another sun diving comet or another object.

Because a grain of sand thrown into the ocean does indeed increase the mass, but does it matter?

The only effect a comet can possibly have on the earth is by colliding with it.

They also leave us lots of lovely meteorite showers. Some appear on a yearly basis.

And too Version 100, even if every object in space is inter-connected in someway (gravity springs to mind), it would take an object of unimaginable mass to have any signifficant effect on our sun. Said object would also screw up the solar system.

Oh how convenient.

You post a youtube video earlier showing what you claimed to be a comet reacting with the sun.

BUT, comets can also react with the sun with no visible affects too!

Ahh lovely, have fun with that.

edit on 15/5/11 by Chadwickus because: (no reason given)

Electrical effects are not necessarily visible and no one said that every
comet produced a solar reaction.

The argument of "the sun is too big" is meaningless.

If the plasma surrounding the comet contains the proper potential
then it can most certainly have a strong effect as it discharges.
