[Chaos-l] Just wondering

[Robert Nielsen]

Jayme,

So it depends on whether the comet crossed the Earth's orbit in front or behind us, right?   If it entered behind us ... and is between us and the Sun ... and then exits behind us, then we won't pass through the debris until next year (since we'll have to go around the Sun to reach where the comet was.  If the comet entered or exits ahead of us ... then we could have a shower now or in the near future ...

Anyone else want to validate my geometry?
