Well, that's quite the assumption. There hasn't been any iron vapor spectrally seen yet. Could be that it is iron deficient, could be that the iron is still encapsulated. We've never really studied a primordial comet, and this one in particular might be VERY old, so it might be iron poor from the beginning. Also, billions of years in interstellar space might do strange things to the chemistry inside. All of our comets are (a) from the same dust cloud and therefore look and act the same, and (b) are protected by the Sun's heliosphere, which protects us from some of the nasty cosmic rays in interstellar space.

-Suspiciously accurate path through our solar system

What, a straight line? Holy cow, we better not have any straight lines around here, that's suspicious!

-Absolutely massive and many times larger than a comet should be

They don't even know how massive it is, but a few miles across puts it well into the "normal to small" range, not the "absolutely massive" range. "Absolutely massive" is 40+ miles across, not 4 miles across.

I'm not going too deep on this because you will think I'm crazy (er).
But...

Not a lot of official chatter for a once in a lifetime opportunity.
This things timing lines up with several other conspiracy theories:
...Nibiru,
...Annunaki,
...project blue beam,
...ancient colony on Mars

Then what's with all the other "comets" making a guest appearance?

Plus the trajectory is exactly what I would do as the leader of a galactic invasion force.

The odd part of the trajectory is the off gassing is usually on the sunny side, causing drift outward. This thing isn't drifting. Or maybe it is, who knows?

I'm not a conspiracy junky but this just seems off.

I'd rather be prepared and wrong.

Another rare event.
Lucky us!

Joe Scott is kinder to Loeb only by a tiny bit.

Would the leaders even tell the avg folk if it was on a collision course?

Think about that for just one second. Please. Think.

Do you really think that a comet is going to pass within the Moon's orbit?? Really? And you're only hearing about it because of a meme photo?

Really?

Really?

Yup.
Several sources.
Dates a bit fuzzy, but this one was discovered AFTER it flew by.
Oh my.

That's not what I said.
COMET. You're claiming that a COMET will travel by the Earth in a few days. You specifically want us to believe that comet 2025/A1 will swing by the Earth so closely that it would literally fill the night sky from horizon to horizon (since the tail of a comet can easily be several TIMES longer than the distance between the Earth and the Moon).

Do you believe that? Where is this comet coming from that you can't see it now? Shouldn't be literally the brightest comet ever in the history of comets? Seen even during the day?

[BK911]

Yea I stand corrected.
Looks like ~28M miles.
Still quite the coincidence.

There is no comet 2025/A1, it's not next to the earth, it's not 25 million miles away, and there is no dang coincidence! Comets fly through our skies literally every day! There's 5 or 6 in the sky right now! No coincidence! Yet you continue to post random Facebook pictures as if they're true, and make statements like it should be drifting" as if you understand what that even means!

[BK911]

Yea looks like I got a little excited.

Edit:
Got a bit excited with info overload.
ONE post had incorrect information.
ALL others are legit.

[BK911]

So I'm a bit confused on this comet.
Lots of stuff seems a bit sketchy.
My main issue is...
If an advanced race can build a comet and is capable of interstellar travel, than they should be capable of cloaking.
We have noise canceling headphones.
Cloaking is similar tech at different frequencies.
If truly an invasion, they could suddenly appear ANYWHERE.

I'm leaning towards project bluebeam.
Even the superbowl had lots of ET commercials.
Priming your brain!

[Arizona_928]

BK, noise cancellation is 180 degree out of phase. Cloaking is a lot more complicated than that.

Anybody look up last night?
I looked with a cheap telescope and didn't find anything.
I'll try again tonight.

Look up at what? Neptune? A comet?

First, you don't have the skill nor equipment to see Neptune (which is NOT visible with binoculars, despite your worthless Facebook post)
Second, no one looks for comets in a telescope. Use binoculars. Good binoculars, not some crappy vacation ones you might have.

A lathe, or a big book of maps.

Certainly not some shapeless space junk...
