Right now Comet Elenin is 100,000 kilometers across. That's 62,137 miles across for the non-kilometer folk.
The diameter of Earth is only 7,900 miles.
Comet Elenin will GROW once it gets closer to the sun.

Comprising Australia, New Zealand and their Antarctic territories, the Kingdom is a regional branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), an international non-profit educational organisation that is dedicated to the research and recreation of pre-17th century European History, with a particular focus on its practical applications in arts and sciences, including costuming, cooking, martial arts, dance, calligraphy and illumination, metalwork, archery and music (to name but a few!).
Another Atlantian shire which had no actual land of its own was Curragh Mor (“great boat” in Gaelic). It was located on the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz. This fit in the SCA rules since the carrier had its own zip code.
September XXVII/1992
During September Crown AS XXVII, King Darious Corvinus and Queen Jacyntha Elizabeth Argentarius recognized and formally introduced our vessel Curragh Mor in front of the Kingdom’s populace. The Incipient Port of Curragh Mor (Galic for Great Ship) was the USS Nimitz CVN 68 station at Naval Station Bremerton. Curragh Mor was under the sponsorship of the then Shire of Dragon's Laire.

Errr Incorrect IMO. JiMMcanney disagrees too. He's been right more then wrong on quite a few things:
www.jmccanneyscience.com... He doesn't like being quoted on other websites.
Read the "white section."
The Nasa emergency guide does sound like a hurricane warning,but instead of staying inside,away from windows,shouldn't it be:
You'll have enough warning,we've done this enough times in hurricane season,board up your windows and get the F out!" ????
Thanks for the pics Zorgon.

Well met One of my dearest members vanished years ago. We lost touch with her and did not know why. Well just this week I find a letter from her and we find that both her parents had died in a car crash and she just shut herself up. I now find she is alive and well and married in Ireland. Also out equestrian mistress left and just today I find mail from her...
This is an omen Time for me to reestablish the website for the Guild so those all around the world can stay connected. One of the biggest issues on the internet is that we usually only have avatar names. So if someone gets in trouble, we don't even have a way to check on them.
This happened with one of our dancers years ago. She worked for the post office and was one of those that got an anthrax letter... She was so sick she didn't want anyone to see her like that but all we had was her first name Tara and her dance name Annissa...
Hard to support people if you cannot reach them in times of need
She is better now and back to dancing.

Does "Nasa" really think they have employees that are so dumb they need this "PSA"?
If so, best fire them and hire others more competent?
I'd be embarrassed if my employer thought I needed to hear something like this.

NASA probably does think some of their employees are so dumb they need this PSA. They probably realize that there is often a huge gulf between book smarts and common sense.
