Halley's Comet - P1

[thangacchi]

I was born the month after Halley last appeared. That means I'll be 76 when it appears again or probably dead. I would really love to see it though. Can someone tell me how long you get to see it for? For instance if I were to stand in a dark field where I had a clear and unobstructed view of the night sky, how fast or how long will I be able to see the commet for from the time it appears to the time it disappears from my view? Would it be a few seconds of it zooming across the sky or slower?

[bengativo6]

i was 10 years old when halley passed the earth in 1986 i remember it so well .when it was gone my grndpa said to me when that comet passes through earth you will be much like me.and old man telling your grandsons this is the second time watching this comet passing by.most people like my grandmas mother saw the it on 1910 .then she was able to see it for the second time after on 1986.most people can. see it twice.but most cant..people thatll be born on 2052 will be 10 and may be able later .

[123backflipman]

@TheThatOneGuy569 I have never heard of anyone as retarded as you

[Corri1596]

Thats just friggin awesome :D i learned something new...omg i judt realized it had history in it xD and i stayed awake!!! A miracle

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Corri1596 glad you learn something from this video, hope it sparks a life long interest in Astronomy :)

[Corri1596]

@KurdstanPlanetarium Ever since i was little, ive always loved the stars and well basically science :D it's something that i just rock at :D XD

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Corri1596 yes same with me, believe me the story of Halley's comet was one of those that inspired me and made me enjoy pursuing Astronomy !!

[omarmonnoo]

so u are Muslim too im also Muslim hi im omar from lahore im on utube but im 10

[omarmonnoo]

i hope i live till I've seen a comet

[Funtabulosity329]

I was named Halley after the comet :)

[TheRocking89]

wow this is a great information, i have just studied about this star in my religion and our prophet(SAW) told us about this star and predict something for future.

[KiLlCaMlIkEsU]

72 :( Hopefully im still alive

[TheThatOneGuy569]

Halleys comet is a conspiracy theory by the government to trick us into believing that there is a universe without life. It's all bullshit. Aliens are with us now and are watching this video right now, laughing at you guys, I'm the only smart one and I'm not gonna conform to the man. Fuck that I'm not ignorant like you conformists.

[tommyv166123]

lol my great grandmother has a small capsul of haleys comet pills that her older brother gave her from 1910 when haleys comet came, they said that the pills would make it so radiation and dust wont kill you, after all, everyone who took the pills and everyone who didnt take the pills lived anyways, although the people who took the pills later got very sick...

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@tommyv166123 wow thats a very nice story, I didn't know about Halley's Pills, thank you :)

[Ericano6]

so beautiful are these comets ill be an old girl, if not dead when comet halley visits us again, i remember it came past us in the 80s and in the 90s i was glad to see hale-bopp comet i love astronomy since i was small mind boggling yet fascinating wonder

[Izakokomarixyz]

I will be 70.........

90's kid forever!!! :D

[PinkyFrenchie33]

@Izakokomarixyz Yeeaaah man =D Especially 1994 ;)

I will be... 68!

[Chukwillard]

i saw it back in 86. it was cool.

[tontsa911]

I doubt I'll be alive in 2062... well, I wasn't alive in 1985 either...

[allyoueverwanted]

wheeyyheyyy someone actually knows how to say my last name im impressed

[MrSyntheticDesign]

wait if it has an orbit wouldnt that mean it has a magneto inside it?

[121212zombie]

Ebay item number: 250949447475 Look!!!

[DEnaz453]

@KurdstanPlanetarium Why do you want us to remember you

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@DEnaz453 haha, so you dont want to remember this day when you are 63, reflecting back in time, if you do then do remember me, with my channel ...peace

[DEnaz453]

ill be 63 by then :p too old!!!

[sexycooljulesverne]

ill be 70 :O

[DarkKiss92]

Hey, I remember that when I was a kid comets were more popular than nowadays. How this is possible? I remember also that I saw one (or maybe more) when I was hmm 7?

[dosejoke]

I will be exactly 76 years :-P , 1987 baby

[YoungMoula2000]

ill only be 65 when i see this but what if i miss it ROFL!!

[nyc42stend]

Whereas the orbits of comets are elliptical,those of planets tend to be nearly circular.Why?

[DarkKiss92]

@nyc42stend Both of objects influence to each other. When objects are in nearly the same mass, they go around their center of gravity. But if one of objects is much smaller(like Sun and an Earth), then the other nearly doesn't circulate at all. But I don't know how about comets. I've only read that it's described by Kepler's laws.

[Sexiisox33]

Mark Twain was born on a day in 1835 when Halley's Comet came into view. When he died in 1910, Halley's Comet was in view again.

I'll be 67 when she comes back -_-

[KickDownDoors]

No one ever talks about Haley's Comet. I remember seeing it in the sky every day for months. It blew me away. I would drive home from work and see it at night. Get out of my old junker, walk out into the field to spend a couple of hours watching with amazement. Seemed like no one gave a shit back then. I couldnt believe that thing was disrupting my normal perception of the stars. Unbelievable is all I can say to those of you who never saw it and will have to wait decades. Lasted a lifetime.

[MultiAwesomenessman]

I'll be 63 when this comes back -_-=

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@MultiAwesomenessman Plz remember me when you look at Halley's Comet in the sky...

[arenadri7]

Homage - 29.October (1656-1742) was born EDMUND HALLEY, English ASTRONOMER - (Halley's Comet 1682).

[mKufeelLikaNub]

2061 next halleys comet

[JohnEboy777]

the video clearly said its last appearance was in 1986. Dont know what you saw in 93 but it wasnt halleys comet

[Zinkiux]

my parents still tell me that i saw it when i was a little.... The say i was afraid of it :OOOO

[dannosgirl336]

contrary to popular belief, comets don't streak across the sky, but appear to move slowy against backdrop of stars-very minutely

[larpsim]

Halley is a generational comet. Usually people only get to witness it just once in a human life span. It heralded the coming of the birth of Jesus Christ and it served as a sign of his return to that same generation when Jesus destroyed his enemies and Jerusalem in 70 AD.

[comaco91]

@TheIronPitbullSpeaks and so are you

[Y050508]

I wish I could see one day I never seen it :(

[typ33]

next halley's comet:

July 28, 2061

50 years 14 days from now

[Greenocool10]

Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked Hailey's Comet, it returns every 76 years to see if he is still alive, it then leaves in fear.

[TheJustin80]

thumbs up if ur watchin this in 2010

[MrUnit024]

i'll be 63!

[TheDevenrocks]

I think it was in 95-96 last time

[Typhoon1235]

Next Halleys comet is in 2026

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Typhoon1235 Next Halleys Comet is in 2062...

[blisssmatic]

@KurdstanPlanetarium

I have a vivid memory of halleys comet last time around I was six years old and living in argentina.If I live to be 82 I`ll get to see it twice!

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@blisssmatic well that would be great to see Halleys Comet twice in one's life time...

wish you best of Luck.

pls do remember me on that day

[montanasist]

@blisssmatic next Halley's Comet is 2061 actually.

[J4M3SPR]

[52298Beebop2]

@KurdstanPlanetarium Well at least I saw the one in 1986. In 2062 i'll be 102 years old. I don't think i'll live that long.

[1231abdulmannan]

i dont wanna die before 28th july 2061!!!

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@1231abdulmannan dont worry you going to have4 more comets before that date, I m sure...

[willychavez22]

@KurdstanPlanetarium  what are they called? i really am intersted in space and i would love to see a comet:D

[ybur67]

@willychavez22 really intersted in space too

[willychavez22]

@ybur67 haha lol

[W3TFART]

Isn't it coming again 2061

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@W3TFART yes thats right Comet Halley is coming back in 2061 - 2062 !

[IANBOT2]

In 1910 the Earth passed through the tail of Haley's comet. Newspapers like the Oakland tribune put a comet likeness on it paper's title. Little did people know at that time was that this thing could have obliterated this planet. We talk about asteroids hitting this planet let see who is laughing if this planet has to come in close contact with it again.

[togethererforever]

1 ppl is a dinosaurus -.-

[sexycooljulesverne]

@togethererforever rofl

[llewsub]

It's a bird! It's a plane! No! It's Augustus Caeser!

[xXxFlamingjxXx]

i don't like how people use comets as things that take them to God and commit suicide an REALLY! suicide

[kinomoto0005]

Mark Twain was born the day comet Halley passed, and Died 76 years later, when Halley passed again. How weird is that?

[SuperStrange321]

Mark Twain was born when Halley's Comet came around on November 16, 1835 and died when it came again in April 20, 1910.

[chaos9115]

i'll be 62 or somthing like that when it passes and my parents would be over 101 years old

[Muizz1987]

Chuck Norris once threw a stone into space. very 75 years, the stone returns to Earth, now being named Halley's comet!

[sonicriders1234]

i was born on Halley's comet.my mom and dad were at a church and someone said theres 5 people that i going to be pregnant my mom and dad looked at each other and said we have to get out of here.but a few days later i came along in my moms stomach and on the day of Halley's comet i was born and i never got to see it yet.

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@sonicriders1234 wow...thats quite a story. hopefully you see it when it returns in 2061 -2062, by then you will be 76 years then...

enjoy that one's in the life time ecounter then, and pls do remember me

[digitalmikearoo]

The video said that the commet appeared in late 1985 and left in 1986. Was it visible to the naked eye?

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@digitalmikearoo yes it was as always Comet Halley's visible to the naked eye...but then it was visible in the Southern Hemisphere of Earth, not in the Northern Hemisphere...

[cblountt]

@KurdstanPlanetarium Wrong. It was visible in the Northern Hemisphere. I saw it in Northern California.

[SombreroKing100]

@KurdstanPlanetarium when will it next be visible in the northwestren hemisphere!?

never seen a comet in my life :(

[2010californa]

@digitalmikearoo people say that this comet will return in 2060

[marssoul01]

i'll be 13 when it passes again

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@marssoul01 NO that cant be possilbe tell me how old are you?

its return in 2061 - 2062 so thats in 50 years time from now

so do your calculations again based on your age now!

[marssoul01]

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@SuperMario51397 hope you enjoy it then...remember me on that day pls

Shwan

[MajorFrigWit]

I'll be 68. :P 

[brunette427]

I'll be in my 70's next time wow

[RuffneckPE]

I saw Halley's Comet in 1986, I was 8, I've made it a mission to see it again when I'm 83!

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@RuffneckPE wish you luck, buy hey have you seen the recent Comet Hartely 2 just passed by Earth this November 2010?

[joeyfathom]

@RuffneckPE dude it wasn't in '86 it was in 93 but i dont want to take a shit on what you saw it's amazing i saw in 93 and it was fuckin AWESOME

[zeusprp]

@joeyfathom Halley's comet last came in 1986 & not 1993. The name of the comet you saw in '93 is "shoemaker-Levy 9". It was barely 1/100th as visually spectacular as the halley's comet but I guess you found it amazing probably because you were barely 4 years old then. Unfortunately you can't see it again as the comet collided with jupiter an year later in 1994 & got destroyed.

[donhenri]

@RuffneckPE

ruffneck u bastard. u remind me of my older buddy who was about your age and he bragged when he was 18 that he saw the comet and he was going to see it again when he turns 84.

[grantsdaman01]

i'll be 71 when it comes back, im 20 now

[secumu]

lol @ santacruz.

[chrisdakilla]

Here's to good health, so those of us in our 20's will get a chance to view this once we reach our 70's!

[santacruz831X4]

how the fuck did i end up watching this haha im high

[WHATtheFuuuuuuu]

@santacruz831X4 sure.

[dblock0301]

@santacruz831X4 funny cuz im high and watching the hangover and they just said something about it

[TheIronPitbullSpeaks]

@santacruz831X4 YOURE SO FUCKING FUNNY OMG ITS SO COOL YOU SMOKE WEED! WOW! DUDE YOURE COOL MAN YOURE COOL! YOURE LIKE THE ONLY PERSON WHO SMOKES WEED IN THE WORLD! OMG THATS AWESOME ARENT YOU COOL...God fucking stoners are pathetic...

[MetalheadMatt2010]

@santacruz831X4 god dammit i love youtube

[Selasia]

The "dirty snowball" comet theory is clearly not supported by the recent observations.

"In 2000, as comet Linear (named after the telescope that discovered it) approached perihelion, strange things began to happen. It brightened by more than 50% in less than fours hours, and threw off large quantities of 'dust', much more than was expected from ice and other volatiles. Then, to cap it all, the Chandra telescope discovered that the 'dirty snowball' was emitting X-rays!"

[Selasia]

"

NASA cited a befuddled process called 'charge exchange reaction', which it claimed was first proposed in 1997. As a matter of fact, however, the electric comet theory has been around for more than a century, and it received clarity from Ralph Juergens in the early 1970s. He proposed the Electric Sun model, with the corollary that cometary comas and tails are produced by an electrical exchange between the sun and a comet."

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Selasia you know comets depends, whether they are the first time comets or old ones, the fresh new ones is more volatile due to its large amounts of snow and ice...

but so far the best disriptions that surpassed every other ones is the dirty snow ball..

[Selasia]

I don't agree. Snow and ice can't cause the (sometimes extreme) observed phenomena with comets.

All my own research shows how space phenomena are electr-magnetic in nature. Please have a look:

wikicompany. org/wiki/911:Energy

wikicompany. org/wiki/911:Plasma_cosmos

Your video's are great nevertheless. Thanks.

[Selasia]

Comet Holmes

"In only 42 hours in October 2007, the comet brightened from a magnitude of about 17 to about 2.8. This represents a change of brightness by a factor of about half a million and is the largest known outburst by a comet. No explanation has been provided by NASA or the mainstream as to why, let alone how, this has occurred. As of November 9th 2007, the coma is now greater in diameter than the Sun, making it the largest body in the solar system (the actual comet being only 2km wide)."

[Salien1999]

@Selasia 1.) It's not all ice, there's iron, sulfur and all that inside there too. And Space is nearly nothing like Earth, on Earth, if you shake a flag pole, it doesn't change much. In space, the flag would flap.

[KoukiBuri]

@Salien1999 but you wouldnt here b/c there's no air

[Salien1999]

@KoukiBuri Never said anything about hearing the flag...>_>

[liles65]

@Selasia I KNEW IT! i had a book once, it said that all comments were dirty snowballs, and now i am an astronomer kid who loves looking for comets and many things like that
