i dont care what leonid elenin says about the thing,,i also own a 10 inch telescope,
So with your 10 inch telescope you should be easily able to see that it is the expected brightness, and expected RA/Dec for the described orbit.
You should also be able to get the "good pics" yourself that you demand.
It is currently magnitude 8.3. With your telescope you should be able to get GREAT pictures, in fact.
ermmm... you have actually bothered to look at comet Elenin, havnt you?? My god it would be a laugh if you, with the equipment you have, havnt even bothered to check it out yourself.

It depends on what hemisphere he is in because elenin is only visible in the southern hemisphere. Just because a person has a telescope doesn't mean they can see everything in the sky.

We have bigger fish to fry than what may or may not have some sort of so-called "astronomical effect" on earth.
For christ's sake, we've got a world on the edge of:
Economic collapse
World War 3
Police State
And you folks are arguing about whether or not an astronomical object may or may not be causing some friggin earthquakes ?!
Blow your @$%#& house. life savings, jobs, way of life, comforts of life, and loved ones to kingdom come and see where your priorities lie.... real world issues are at hand here.
I'm sick of Elenin threads already.
Wake up people !
The world is crashing around you as you're busy arguing whether or not some comet is or isnt' what it's claimed to be.
It's not up to me to teach you proper grammar. I was just trying to make the point that it is much easier on the eyes when a thread or a post can be read without having to constantly stop and re-read,analyze,decypher, and reconfigure words,capitalization,senence structure, and proper grammar. I think you have some valid points but it is hard to take someone seriously who rushes through a thread with zero regard for the English language.

At the risk of being called an Ele-tard I found an interesting little tidbit of info. It seems the last time a EQ of this magnitude hit this region was in 1897. It just so happens that a near earth comet was passing by then - comet Tempel1. A quick fact check finds that Tempel1 has a return of every 5.5 years and was also passing by in 1812 during the huge New Madrid quakes. If you think Tempel1 sounds familiar it does. Its the comet that Nasa tossed a probe into to gauge the impact.
Might just be more to this comet stuff than anyone wants to admit.

You'll be seeing sight that for yourself, shortly.
Extinction

Keep in mind, that's just shoddy shadow government terminology. There's much more to it...

You can take this however you want to but,
It doesn't lend a whole lot of credibility to your argument when you show no regard for grammar or spelling.
It is rather hard to take you seriously and shows the level of education we are dealing with.
This is not to say that you don't have some valid points, nor does it mean that I am perfect and have never made a mistake. It only means that maybe you should devote a little more time and thought to your thread before posting it. The more you put into it, the more WE will get out of it.
Or you can just get offended and call me names, either way, it is what it is.edit on 23-8-2011 by Screwed because: (no reason given)
