Comet in Broad Daylight! - Page 2

DreadPirateRoberts · 01-15-2007, 12:44 PM

The link Moonliner referenced said the best time to look would be at local noon, and that the comet would just be to the left of the sun, about 6 degrees. Since the sun moves at 15 degrees per hour, I think the sun is currently blocking the comet. I'd wait until after local noon, and take another look.

I just goy back from my wander and couldn't see it - oh well, at least I caught Halley's

This is how America will get conquered-with everyone half-blind from staring up at the sky looking for comet hoaxes. Hello, Kohoutek.

Do a lyrics search. I found at least 3 different "translations" - none of them were correct (as I know it.)

It's "cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night" on the Springsteen original

I looked at a daytime picture of it online. That's good enough for me. A bright dot in the middle of blue. It brings portends of doom, I'm sure.

(I'm a weird fan of astronomy; I love the subject and am very well read on it but have very little interest in actually looking at the stuff; I don't believe I've ever looked through a telescope...at the sky anyway).

I am not kidding when I say that I thought the lyrics were "wrecked up like a douch..."

I grew up with four older sisters. It gave me a feminine perspective to everything.
