Zero chance of it hitting Earth....
BUT!!!!!!
Right now it is blow the ecliptic (the plane the Earths orbit is on). Soon, after it’s closest approach to the sun, it will cross back to being above the ecliptic.
Around the time, it will cross the Earths orbit. I mean almost exactly the Earths orbit.
Earth won’t be there - not yet, anyways.
IF the comet disintegrates, there is a very, very, very good chance that come the end of April/beginning of May 2014, you will see some of the pieces. Because that is when the Earth will pass through the debris cloud.
It could be a total dud. It could be the most spectacular meteor storm the Earth has seen since it’s early history.
Sounds like a game Obama & Reggie play...
April 15, 2014...Passover...first of the four ‘Blood Moons’...what an interesting coincidence.
