It looks like ISON will have come and gone before we enter its path. Just how far can debris extend behind it? That, I don't know. I'm more worried about what it might do to the sun, electrically. I guess we'll see.

My concern with ISON or any comet is the potential CME occurring at perihelion. We could have an EMP if the conditions are right.

Bgood wrote:The next few days are important as ISON passes through Earth's orbital trajectory this time next week. Anything untoward that happens now will directly affect us around mid January next year. Obviously, this is not a good time for break-ups and disintegrations.
There's the Mercury 'fly-by' on the 19th, but apart from that, there's nothing much to get worked up about until the 28th. Hopefully she'll brighten a bit more between now and then, but perihelion is the big one. The ISON on the cake.
Is it going to whip around that fast... one day on one side of the sun and the next day on the other side?
