As I'm typing I'm looking at pictures I have of both,and they both look
like Mars moons. Mars moons are asteroids. Tempel 1 does not look like a dirty snow ball. Its potato shaped,has dusty creators,and made of rock. Structure wise it is hard for me to look at Tempel 1 and say its a comet. Its nice to have close up pictures of both Deep impact probe of Tempel 1,and Gaspra photographed by the Galileo spacecraft as it went by in 1991. This has bothered me a lot. Can I say a rock asteroid and a rock comet are physically the same? Bert |

Can I say a rock asteroid and a rock comet are physically the same? Bert Analysis: Deep Impact Comet All Fluff By Robert Roy Britt Senior Science Writer posted: 06 September 2005 01:05 pm ET "The shape and surface features of the comet rammed this summer by NASA's Deep Impact probe are quite different from the two other comets whose cores have been studied, scientists said today. Comet Tempel 1, hit in early July by an 820-pound probe, appears to be coated with fine powder rather than solid ice and rock. The powder is even finer than sand, scientists had reported shortly after the impact. A thorough analysis confirms that and other preliminary conclusions about the 7-mile-long icy world, which appears to be rather fluffy. Weak and porous The outer tens of meters (yards) of the comet is less strong than a snow bank, said Deep Impact's Principal Investigator Michael A'Hearn, an astronomer at the University of Maryland. Still, the object's gravity holds it all together. Dust emanates from the comet in frequent outbursts, likely a result of being warmed by the Sun. The dust kicked up by the impact was not the same as surface dust, but it spread through space and dissipated in a manner similar to the natural outbursts. While more analysis is needed, the interior is clearly different from the surface. Inside, the comet harbors a relatively high concentration of organic compounds, the stuff from which life is made. The organics were more prevalent during and after the outburst than the water and carbon dioxide that routinely escape from the nucleus, or hard core of the comet. The results were presented to reporters in a teleconference today and will be published later this week by the journal Science. Comets are leftovers from the formation of the solar system. They're frozen vaults of primordial material, stuff that escaped the planet-formation process and therefore holds clues to what the raw materials of Earth and other worlds was like. Before Deep Impact, scientists had gotten close-up looks at the nuclei of only two comets, Borelly and Wild 2. Tempel 1 is much different from either of those, yet in the grand scheme it is likely still a garden variety comet, A'Hearn and his colleagues said. Snowy dirtball In recent years, our impression of comets has shifted from dirty snowballs to snowy dirtballs. That latter description holds true with comet Tempel 1, A'Hearn said. There is more dust than ice, A'Hearn said, but the ratio is less than 10-to-1. More significant to the new data is the revelation that there's not much there. "The comet is mostly empty," A'Hearn said, adding that it is probably more than 75 percent porous with perhaps no solid core. Instead, it's likely made of ice grains loosely packed through and through. That conclusion would not alter how comets might have delivered water and organic material to early Earth, A'Hearn said. One leading theory for the formation of life on our planet holds that the raw material was delivered by comets. A'Hearn explained that when a comet plummets through the atmosphere, it creates a shock wave in front. Such a shock wave, not a comet's composition, is the primary factor that allows a large comet to make it to the surface intact, delivering water and organics. A'Hearn said scientists are still analyzing the chemicals that came out of the Tempel 1, from ammonia and acetylene to hydrogen cyanide. None of the molecules are different from what previous ground-based observations had revealed, however. Tempel 1 is also dotted with round depressions that the scientists think are impact craters, which have not been seen before on comets." http://www.space.com/scienceastronom...l1_update.html Double-A |

Double-A Thank you so very much. Glad that impact information on Tempel1
is coming out. I just don'[t like looking at Tempel 1 with those old dust filled craters. Some having crater holes within crater holes. Yes the dust in my picture looks like moon dust.All solid rock objects must have this fine powder on there surface. Armstrong's foot print was the first thing we saw. Space dust must have been a lot thicker in the past. Besides gravity,it being so fine it could have some molecular binding even some static electromagnetiim. Space dust needs more thinking about. Billions of years ago it might have even been to dense for man made satellites?? Nice to know Tempel ! is showing us that comets come in many structures. That makes things much clearer Bert |

RL and Double-A Glad RL you chocked a little on what A"Hearn came up
with. He is a laugh . First question I'd ask him is about the up front shock wave.?? Have lots of others as well ??? I think he fudges a lot Double-A What cause all that damage in Serberi had to been from a very loose water comet that dissolved coming in,but the air shock wave was the force that caused the explosion.

Mike A'Hearn is an astronomer who's done much research in these
topics, RL! If anyone'd know, he would. Not everyone has the total lack of astronomical knowledge of a WartHole, or BEERTbrain's very poor education in astronomy.

I could just sit back and enjoy the spectacle...
Do you remember the names of the Japanese monsters? I remember only Godzilla, Gamera and Gappa. What are the others?
