Comet Elenin. A Round Table Conference. What Is Going On?

This group is really interesting and fascinating on so many levels. As to whether what they are saying is truthful or an elaborate story meant to attract followers and viewers, I don't know. There are so many stories floating around the Internet regarding the various Near Earth Objects, most especially Comet Elenin, and I am not at all sure which ones are truthful. If you will notice, on Spaceobs.org, there was a sudden change from a trajectory that was near earth with earth passing through the comet's tail, to a very bold statement that there was not going to be anything near earth, but that it was going to be able to be seen by those on earth through telescope and then to Comet Elenin breaking apart. This has not been the case everywhere. To note, Russia has been moving at break-neck-speed to build underground cities for all of its citizens for some major event. There is information from my sources here in the U.S. that the same is going on here, except that there will not be room for ALL of its citizens...only the privileged. Anyway, watch these videos and see what you think about Comet Elenin and other happenings that seem to be changing story lines before people read the one before. If that didn't make sense, just watch:)

Trajectory of Comet Garradd Shows Earth Will Move Through It's Tail This Winter.

A COMET AMONG THE STARS: As September begins, green Comet Garradd is gliding across the star fields of the Milky Way in the early evening sky. The icy visitor from tthe outer solar system is not yet visible to the naked eye, but it looks great through amateur telescopes (recommended: The Comet Hunter). Maximilian Teodorescu sends this picture from his backyard observatory in Comana, Romania:
"I took the picture on Sep. 1st using my 8-inch telescope--a 34 minute exposure at ISO 6400," says Teodorescu. "The comet looks so nice in front of the Milky Way."

Astrophotographer Pete Lawrence of Selsey UK points out that Comet Garradd is approaching Brocchi's Cluster--also known as "the Coathanger." Lawrence photographed the approach on Sept. 1st. "The best night for a photo opportunity between Garradd and The Coathanger is on the 2nd of September leading into the morning of the 3rd, when the comet will pass very close to the hook of the hanger."

For now Comet Garradd is a telescopic object. It is, however, approaching the sun and brightening. Recent projections place it at peak magnitude 6, on the threshold of naked-eye visibility, in February 2012. Because Comet Garradd is a first-time visitor to the inner solar system, it could behave in unexpected ways, perhaps exceeding those expectations. Stay tuned--and meanwhile browse the image links below.
