Comets

"Local Extraterrestrials"

If you were to meet me walking on the street, I would probably be walking with my head down, eyes glued to the ground. But not if it's dark out! Then, I would have my eyes firmly planted on my binoculars hoping for a glimpse of a "falling star", a planet, or a comet. Either way, I'm more than likely to ignore you. It's nothing personal, it's just my way.

In 1996 I saw a comet with my own eyes for the first time. Well, last time Halley's Comet was in our neighborhood (1984 or 1985) I think I saw it. It was a barely discernable fuzzy patch in the sky. Needless to say, it was rather disappointing. But...

I for sure saw my first comet (with my own eyes) while living in Kansas! Comet Hyakutake, the Great Comet of Spring 1996. Okay, okay, it was just a fuzzy patch in the sky too, but this was a bigger, wobbly, fuzzy patch, and I could even make out the nucleus. I think. Anyway, it was an awe-inspiring event. However, I'm still hoping to see one of those comets that streak across the sky, and is even visible during the day. Perhaps the Hale-Bopp Comet of 1997 will fulfill this dream. I have my eyes on the skis, er, skies.

UPDATE: APRIL 12, 1997

Well, if you've missed seeing Comet Hale-Bopp of 1997, you must be living under the surface of Planet Earth. It's a gorgeous sight. Go ahead. Look up. It's there, right in front of your nose. Don't dawdle though; it's moving away fast and it won't return for 2,400 years. Unless you've made arrangements to freeze your body before/after death, this is your last chance to see the great comet of 1997 - Comet Hale-Bopp.

Here are some fascinating facts about Comet Hale-Bopp.
