Is Ison Path Change? anyone?
The conspiracy theorist seed is budding within me.
Now why wasn't ISON' s trip around the sun visible during the time it happened?
Was the system shut off? broken?
Thousands of people encouraged to come to a professional, collaborated event, presented by the "experts", to watch a black screen.
I am sure there is a good reason it tools several hours before any useable images of ISON were available. Does any one know why the huge time gap?
We plan to off-point at 17:30 UTC (12:30 pm ET) and return to normal solar observing at 20:45 UTC (3:45 pm ET).

ISON seems to be kicked in the balls - look to the behavior of the tail. Don't know if is going up our back?? wowedit on v2013139America/ChicagoFri, 29 Nov 2013 09:15:46 -06002 by voyger2 because: (no reason given)

Thanks cheesy. It will survive
It will emerge from the back of the sun in 3 hours. It will be as bright as two full moons I tells yah.
Maybe not as bright but who knows what nice warm presents it will bring from the sun.

Whoops, that looks like the disintegration Phage was talking about. It just kind of leans over to the side and dies.
Either that, or it shows the very tiny head of ISON and its trailing debris turning away from the sun as the solar wind flares the output backwards. So maybe its a good thing for us ISONfreaks, and means there is enough material left to make a tail.edit on 29-11-2013 by Aleister because: (no reason given)
it looks brighter now then before entry. We must consider that ison is actually very large indeed.

I think the tail is dimmer right now because is changing the trajectory, right back to our direction...
This wins post of the year...... it goes to show you should never follow experts blindly. Although phage is mostly correct sometimes he is wrong.

The consensus is ison survived,how long will it be before phage joins the consensus and stop hanging around on the fringe lol,enjoy the humble pie.
