Comet 'Elenin' essentially fell apart in August 2011, on account of some unusually

high solar activity. Those components of it that vaporized quickly dissipated in

space. What's left is a cloud of sand, pebbles, stones, and possibly some ice chips,

in the comet's original orbit. It was never a threat to Earth, and is even less of

a threat now than it ever was.

No. The only way a comet could cause a catastrophe would be if it collided with Earth. The orbit of Halley's Comet keeps it at a safe distance from us.

Will elenin hit Earth?

Comet Elenin (C/2010 X1) was first discovered on December 10th by Leonid Elenin. I have not yet seen detailed descriptions of its orbit, but early calculations indicate that it will probably be visible to the naked eye in late August or early September 2011. It's not going to hit the Earth; it MAY come within about 0.4 AU but not much closer. That is not proven as we do not know the size of the meteor as NASA have not give us the measurements. NASA have also given a warning to all their employees to make sure their families are safe on October the 16th.


What does 'elenin' mean?

You can call Elenin, aka C/2010 whatever you wish, but that won't change the controversy surrounding the object. The biggest worry about c/2010, Elenin is that the mass is unknown.


Is something bad supposed to happen on September 27th 2011?

There has been talk of a Comet "Elenin" that is supposed to come across earth at a speed of 70,000 miles an hour. If all holds TRUE, the earth is gonna experience heavy pole shifting and earthquakes along with other natural events. This star may also cause no sunlight for several days.


Where will be the safest place in us in 2012?
