all! lets watch the realtime Ison journey meet the sun..provide by NASA!

Ok this is the 4th time I've tried to post this

I posted the question "Does the latest LASCO COR2 imagery show the comet's nucleus post-perihelion?" about 10 times to the youtube chat and the #asknasa craptag... I'm afraid there have been to many "Will is hit the Earth?" and "Is it gunna cause a nuke explosion on the sun?" questions for the scientists to actually notice real questions.... Sad

The SDO approach cam...this is frame 288....the frame after 289 is blacked out...the only frame of 303 that is...

Here is ISON, lo0l ..

Here's another latest from STEREO



Looks to be alive as the tail is pretty big... although it could be it's death throws as well.

So their a tiny bit of hope left for Cheesy and the rest of the gang here on ATS.

I think my computer has jumped from site to site so many times, I think I should just turn it off and have myself some Ice Cream!

No. Watching with my Ice cream!

Ice cream makes everything better! I'm gonna go grab some

Will we be going through it's dust tail still? We might get some excitement yet.

Woot! Looks like it made it!!!!

That's pretty plain. So all the NASA people missed it? Wha? Or did ATS bring it back by closing our eyes and wishing wishing wishing and clapping our hands to keep the fairy, ah, the comet, alive. I hope you are right.

Here's a great animation of it's orbit. We will be passing through the remnants of the pre-perihelion tail cloud over the next while

The orbit round the sun, if that is the surviving Ison...dosnt look the same as the paths predicted for weeks now? IMO

So did it survive or not?

Say it's so!

I'm so happy!

Is that not just the dusty line of accelerated gas, looks like theres nothing of any substance left to track.

Seems to be too solid of a line. Can someone grab a close-up zoom shot?

reply to post by Biigs


Remember, the comet has two tails: The gaseous one that is pushed by the solar wind and the "heavier" matter trail which stays in the orbit line and isn't pushed by the solar wind.
