That is super cool.
I blew the images up to get a good look and can’t really interpret what I see. The bulbous ends are quite rough and the center section relatively smoother as if worn down by rotational abrasion.
Then there is the lit up end. I think the tail precedes the comet, but when I see it I can’t make any sense out of that.

It's not just the peanut shape that's unexpected, but this thing is rapidly tumbling end-over-end as it speeds along at around 27K mph...

The mission is the EPOXI mission.
It is a low cost mission that uses the already in-flight Deep Impact spacecraft

Smiling takes 6.

You say there's another Hartley out there and he's in outer space? When can you come in for a session . . . .
To: cabojoe
Very cool. You can model your own deep impact event using Purdue University's
