Comet ISON is falling toward the sun for a close encounter on Thanksgiving Day 2013. If it survives, it could become one of the finest comets in years. At the moment ISON is still far away and faint, but its sunward velocity is impressive--more than 72,000 mph on Sept. 22nd

That's pretty fast!! but Voyager 1 has it beat by 25,000 MPH, lol!!
Love the thread and keep up the good work, you seem to be very interested in this COMET, its really gotten me on the band horse too.
Being Military, if anything were to ever happen...............
.Creazy,cant imagine if this strike earth with that Velocity..

Tqs! Yes I am So Interested in this Comet ! So Much!
this comet will rise it Velocity when close to Sun, Maybe get Double..Creazy,cant imagine if this strike earth with that Velocity..
Kepler's Supernova Remnant could this actually be Ison?????

Because they are both spacey kind of thingies and you have heard about both of them?
Because that is the only connection there is and even a little bit of research and logic would make this clear.edit on 22-9-2013 by NeoParadigm because: (no reason given)

Actually, if it were some how able to sit still in space (resists the sun's gravity some how), and sat right in Earth's path, our planet would hit it at 66,610 Mph because that is how fast the Earth orbits the sun.
If you think C/2012 S1 ISON is fast now, wait until it whips around the sun. The sun's gravity will have accelerated it to a huge 425,000 Mph by November.
