Comet Encke's Tail Ripped Off

Now that is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time. Maybe I should have become an astronomer like I talked about as a kid. I still get excited about it.

I half-expected to see a tailess goldfish.

Shoulda known better. :slight_smile:

Sun: No, no, it was just a bit of a breeze.

Don’t you hate it when someone rips your tail off.

yeah but if you can grow a new one back, it’s not so bad.

A cosmic piece of tail. :astonished:
