Wow Bob. Really?!

An up to date Ison report: (11/27/2013)
“ISON Lives!!!”
“ISON R.I.P…”
Those are just some of the possible headlines that we’ve wrestled with this week, as Comet C/2012 S1 ISON approaches perihelion tomorrow evening. It’s been a rollercoaster ride of a week, and this sungrazing comet promises to keep us guessing right up until the very end

This next one is , well to me, humorous, but very interesting example of other voices talking about Nasa.

Unfortunately it appears that gravitational tidal forces and the sun's heat have destroyed ISON's nucleus, so it doesn't look as though we'll get much of a show after Thanksgiving.

Some of Comet ISON appears to have survived.

Yes, SBH, something survived but right now it's not clear what exactly. It's still very close to the sun so we might have to wait a few days, but if molecular emissions start picking up then that suggests part of the nucleus survived (these are emissions from gas produced from the nucleus ices interacting with UV from the sun). If these emissions aren't seen then what's left of ISON is likely just a load of debris that'll disintegrate further over the next week or so. If it's the former (I'm a little skeptical about that) then we still might get to see a light show but it probably won't be too spectacular. Much of comet ISON has clearly been destroyed. Scientifically this is really interesting of course no matter what has or what will happen, but as for a spectacular sight in the sky, I don't think that's likely at all now which is a shame. You never know, though and hope I'm wrong.

Saw this ISON cartoon on Andrew Cooper's blog - thought it was quite amusing!

ISON is now a pile of dust heading off into the Solar System away from the sun. The unfortunate bit about this is we won't get a spectacular comet to look at, the good part is this has to be one of the most studied earth-grazing comets ever, so scientifically-speaking a lot will be learned about our solar system - conspiracy fruitcake ALL-CAPS theories aside.
Oh well, there's always the next comet...
