Comments on: MacComet http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2007/10/29/maccomet/ I am an astronomer, writer, and skeptic. I likes reality the way it is, and I aims to keep it that way. My real name is Phil Plait, and I run the Bad Astronomy blog.

Vanaf m’n zolderraam, met uitzicht op het noordoosten, kon ik komeet 17/P Holmes goed zien. Een soort bolvormige sterrenhoop, maar dan al zo met het blote oog te zien. Bijgaand een foto die ik nog net kon nemen, voordat links de wolken overtrokken.  Er schijnt overigens ook een staart zichtbaar te zijn, eentje die ‘m erg doet lijken op het Applelogo.

"And I'm a PC." "And I'm a comet." Don't even kid yourselves, folks, you'd LOVE to see that one! “Hello, I’m a Mac.”

“And I’m a PC.”

“And I’m a comet.”

Don’t even kid yourselves, folks, you’d LOVE to see that one!
