When it approaches the Sun, it could become as bright as a waxing crescent Moon – the curved lunar phenomenon which is visible at the beginning and end of the Moon’s monthly cycle. Experts are unsure whether it will burn to dust or whether it will produce a spectacular display of explosions as it approaches the Sun. Karl Battams of the Naval Research Lab in Washington DC said: “ATLAS is a bit of a wildcard, and there’s a spectrum of possibilities as it nears the sun. “At one extreme, it could simply crumble away in the coming weeks, and at the other extreme it could brighten up tremendously. “It has an unusually small perihelion distance inside of Mercury’s orbit, which bodes well for getting those frozen gases fizzing furiously.” [link to bigworldtale.com (secure)] Last Edited by -Noahsdad- on 03/16/2020 10:22 AM "We are all born to die- the difference is the intensity with which we choose to live" ND |

But this may not have been the only effect of the cometary impact. At the International Conference on Catastrophic Events and Mass Extinctions held in Vienna in July 2000, scientists gathered to discuss possible threats to life on Earth posed by asteroid and comet impacts. Tutankhamun’s Brooch Holds Evidence of Ancient Comet Striking Earth The Ancient Civilizations that Came Before: Self-Eradication, Or Natural Cataclysm? – Part I Halley's Comet Linked to Planet Cooling 1,500 Years Ago Interestingly, beside the obvious calamities such impacts would cause, such as firestorms, nuclear winters, and tsunamis, attention was drawn to various harmful chemicals that some comets contain. One of these is the amino acid vasopressin that can cause violent and aggressive behavior in humans. It is not at present known if 12P/Pons-Brooks contains vasopressin, but it if it does then the substance entering the atmosphere to contaminate the food chain could in part have been responsible for the unprecedented period warfare that griped the planet in the early 1400s BC.

When a comet's orbit brings it close to the sun, it heats up and spews dust and gases into a giant glowing head larger than most planets. The dust and gases form a tail that stretches away from the sun for millions of kilometers. Comets may not be able to support life themselves, but they may have brought water and organic compounds -- the building blocks of life -- through collisions with Earth and other bodies in our solar system.

Imagine if earth was inside that dust radius! The Sun is no longer the largest object in our solar system. The recently visible-to-the-naked-eye Holmes comet has achieved that distinction today. The comet has a larger gas and dust cloud known as the coma, and consequently it has a larger diameter than the sun according to astronomers at the University of Hawaii. Scientists don't seem to have a guess as to how big it will ultimately become. [link to www.networkworld.com (secure)] |

That's too dim to see with the naked eye--but consider this: The comet is hundreds of times brighter than astronomers predicted when it was discovered 4 months ago by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS). And it's still beyond the orbit of Mars. By the time Comet ATLAS approaches the sun in May, it could become quite bright, indeed. Estimates range from magnitude +1 to -10; in other words, somewhere between a 1st magnitude star and the waxing crescent Moon.
