Comet event: Look up!



CeilingNo, really look up. What do you see? Probably a ceiling. Finish reading this article and if it is dark go outside and look up. When you do so turn your eyes towards the constellation Perseus and look for a very large fuzzy star. You can’t miss it. Don’t worry I’ll wait while you go look…

*whistles*

*hums*

starsSee it? That was actually a comet that is having an “event” and releasing larger than normal amounts of gas as it is burned off by the sun. Fortunately Comet 17P/Holmes isn’t attracting groups like “Heaven’s Gate” or other nut cases like Hale Bop did back in 1997.

Are you confused as to why I’ve written this article? Am I suddenly going off on yet another tangent? Nope, I’m just testing Yahoo Buzz to see how accurate their rating of the word “comet” is. Which naturally will help determine overall how accurate their rating of search terms is. In a few days I will post the results in the meantime go outside, look up (no, I wasn’t joking) and enjoy the show that God is putting on for you!

    Hi,
    Nice site and interesting stuff, but because I’m a bit of a nit-picker and you have mentioned spelling in your post I feel duty-bound to point out that ‘advice’ is spelt with a ‘c’ unless it is a verb. :-)
