Could a comet hit Mars in 2014?

A recently discovered comet will make an uncomfortably-close planetary flyby next year – but this time it’s not Earth that’s in the cosmic crosshairs.

According to preliminary orbital prediction models, comet C/2013 A1 will buzz Mars on Oct. 19, 2014. The icy interloper is thought to originate from the Oort Cloud – a hypothetical region surrounding the solar system containing countless billions of cometary nuclei that were outcast from the primordial solar system billions of years ago.

Things are definitely getting interesting! I wouldn’t miss this cosmic show for anything!

And speaking of comets, have you read the new book? Interesting that the Russian meteorite explosion occurred 3 days following its release. The Universe may be speaking!

Noctilucent clouds caused by meteors/comets?

Noctilucent clouds appear out of season and far to the south – cometary dust from the Russian meteor blast?

From 19-21 February 2013, noctilucent clouds were observed in the UK, Denmark, Norway and the Netherlands. Since these clouds are usually only seen in summer, it is suspected that they may be the result of comet dust deposited in the upper atmosphere by the Chelyabinsk/Chebarkul meteor or comet fragment explosion over Southern Russia on 15 February.

So, if these are caused by the recent Russian meteor/comet explosion, what’s been causing all the others… it’s been noted that such clouds are being seen more often and further south than ever before for the past several years.
