  • What will the earth be like when it comes round once more, will people still be on our home planet?

  • I was born the day this comet appeared

  • I remember being at my neighbor's with all the neighborhood kids, taking turns with the binoculars. I didn't turn out to be an astronomer or anything, but it definitely is a passion and hobby because of that.

  • I saw it on an evening from a small back deck and it was as big as the moon from my vantage point with a point on the side of it. I remember thinking to myself a prayer "Dear GOD, thank you for not letting that thing hit our planet and incenerate us like a piece of worthless space dust." It's supposed to come by about ever 2000 years or so. The only recording of such an object historicaly is a verse in the bible where 3 wise men witnessed "A star in the sky stood up and moved across the sky"

  • The next time hale bopp will come to earth is in 4377.

  • @catwomanFL72 Nope, saw it in AR too, and all over the world.

  • That very comet changed my life forever. :')

  • holy shit
