COMET ISON LIVES (UPDATED): Cancel the funeral. Comet ISON is back from the dead. Yesterday, Nov. 28th, Comet ISON flew through the sun's atmosphere and appeared to disintegrate before the cameras of several NASA and ESA spacecraft. This prompted reports of the comet's demise. Today, the comet has revived and is rapidly brightening. Click to view a SOHO coronagraph movie of the solar flyby

Sounds interesting.My neighbor has a pretty fancy (by *my* standards) home telescope that she offered to share with me if this comet survived.

Forgive me my spelling if I am wrong as I never saw any of THOSE movies, but perhaps the comet should be renamed the Freddy Kruger comet.

this does not show how much is left from the flyby, just that something made it.

This past Sabbath I'm reading the JPS TANAKH and under Readings for Special Sabbaths is the note:

First Sabbath Hanukkah

Weekly Portion + Zechariah 2:14-4:7
and Numbers 7:1-11
plus the verses
relating to the prince
(Nasi) of the day
corresponding to the
day of Hanukkah

And of corse Nasi / Nosi (spelled backward Ison) = prince

Happy Chanukah! and buckle up!
