Weird green comet sighted

Green Comet Spotted Down Under

In his excellent 1936 novel The Cometeers, author Jack Williamson recounts the story of what appears to be a strange green comet entering the solar system.

It turns out that they are seeing an alien force field millions of miles in extent, containing worlds enslaved by the Cometeers, an alien race of energy beings.

Sure, you're skeptical - it's just science fiction. Sometimes a green comet - is just a green comet; cyanogen and diatomic carbon in the coma cause the green color. But what if I told you this green comet is sneaking up from below the solar system?

Comet Lovejoy's orbit is almost perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic. At present (20-Mar-2007), the comet is approaching the solar system from below, moving from southern to northern skies.

This sounds underhanded to me; it's just the sort of thing you'd expect from the Cometeers.

Sneaky indeed. Thank god for Science Fiction writers, who can foresee this kind of invasion so we can be prepared.

i am new to this board, so forgive me for immediately jumping to EEEEEEEEK!!!!

is this any real threat though? i've heard bazillions (seriously, thats a real number, honest!) of stories about similar such things. usually it's a lot of hooey, is this another such case?

flipping hope so!!!

smiles and cake, kisa.

was it just my mind or should 'war of the worlds' actually been called 'the slight to do which ends abruptly, and it wasn't so bad really. we're all okay!'

The green flash in the sky. His demons were here all along - in our hearts
and souls - just waiting for a sign from him. And now they're destroying our world.

I love you, Hans Off.

Probably nothing, but I'm keeping some beer, peanuts and a towel packed...just in case.

We just need to keep digging! Don't you see? They can't get at us if we're underground! We can build a whole new world!

(agreement!)

Does it have the same affect as green MM's?

I'll bet it's the Loc-Nar from the movie Heavy Metal. It would be wise to shoot it down before it gets here.

I have to say that those new appeared highly professional to me.

Especially with the news ending in a Stargate Atlantis add.
