See That Comet

How much did this picture cost? I have nicer looking rocks in my back yard I can photograph for free.

_{If those darn kids will just stay off my lawn...}

do yours travel @40.000MPH??

Well, no, not that I've noticed.

But I'm not always home.

Relative to what? The ones in his back yard zip around the sun once a year.

Well...Yes they do..When applied to the same reference as the comet, any item on the surface of our planet is moving very rapidly.

Consider that at the equator, the surface of the earth is rotating at around 1000MPH, so allow for latitude variation and say just 500 MPH, then add to that the orbital speed of roughly 67,000 MPH of the earth around the sun.

I have not included the speed (500,000 MPH) of our solar system around our galactic centre, or the speed of our galaxy (2,200,000 MPH) through the æther as they most likely apply equally to said comet.

Nice clear picture, btw, who's turd collection.

I see 2 faces, one looks like a lion and the other looks like a porcupine.

I see many faces. The circle on the far right looks like a howling wolf.

The circle on the left is pretty cool, looks like a man with a long beard

Did you see the other faces I circled, or was that just me?

And what is it that you are drinking/smoking today? Just kiddin, good job finding those. I just saw a freakin rock.

Do you hear voices too?

Yes! How do you think I found all those faces?

Those are fossilized space aliens from the last attempted landing

until recently I had always pictured comets as huge snowballs. this thing looks like part of Bryce canyon.

Sorry, no hoodoos on the comet.

I don't see any faces in the Bryce picture either.

Either one would be "a hell of a place to lose a cow", as Ebenezer said about Bryce.

So, do you suppose the two "halves" collided and stuck that way from their own weak gravity? Or did it initially take on a spheroidal shape, only to lose icy materials from the center during near approaches?
