I don't live at the north pole. On the 26th what's left of it will get to about 60º above my horizon. Above me, yes, but not directly overhead. It will be 40º away from directly over the north pole.

may be over your head christmas eve? And are you sure you wont be at the north pole on the 26th?

Looks even more brighter now.

From the talk at Spaceweather , a small portion of ISON broke apart or it is a headless comet ( Soon to be dead).

The majority of what I read were people genuinely interested in the passing of this comet, and hoping they'd have the chance seeing it somewere the coming weeks/month.

That was my take on it pretty much, we were given the 40% chance of it surviving the Sun. That's probably the only way a bookie would intepret it...with a need to insert the word, 'Intact'

No, I did not read the thread.
Yes, I'm going to ask this question anyway.
Yes, there is a point to me asking this thread before I read the thread.

Its dead Jim.

ISON lives, and all the yes men and naysayers have skipped off to gobble down some gobbler and pie.

In other news around the globe on this Thanksgiving holiday evening, Fukushima continues to leak radiated cesium 137 into the Pacific Ocean contaminating Blue fin tuna and just about every other species that Japan exports to the Sushi addicted World. Umm Jim............

I know, but I just thought that I would brighten everyone's day. Excuse me for a bit while I throw some walnuts and dried cranberries into my corn bread stuffing. Now you know. ~$heopleNation

I dunno it looks like there is something still driving that tail... how could the comet disintegrate due to heat yet the much weaker, finer dust trail survive?

I'm totally novice but... it seems there's still something with a tail following it.

Looking at this image it's quite obvious that the debris of the former comet ISON is blowing around like dust under a doorjam. I think Phage said it best: Poof
