We\u2019re looking down both barrels of a shotgun!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The first and bigger of the two comets will be visible Monday to the naked eye in the southern hemisphere, as long as city lights are far away. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Southern hemisphere? Say goodbye to Australia, South America and Africa!! Of course, the scientists aren\u2019t seeing anything but the comets. They don\u2019t understand that IT\u2019S THE END OF THE WORLD!!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201c<b>This is one for the record books,\u201d says Michael Kelley of the University of Maryland, who\u2019s never heard of two comets approaching close to Earth a day apart. \u201cIt\u2019s a fantastic opportunity for professionals to learn more about comets, and if you have a chance to try to find them \u2026 it\u2019s a fantastic chance to see part of history as it happens.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sure Barney the scientist dinosaur said the very same thing just before the Chicxulub asteroid blasted Barney and all his reptilian friends into the fossil record.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The first member of the pair, known as comet 252P\/LINEAR, is a bright green color from the carbon gas it\u2019s puffing out, says the University of Maryland\u2019s Matthew Knight. 252P will slide past Earth at a distance of roughly 3 million miles. That\u2019s well beyond the moon but near enough to put 252P in the top 10 of closest-approaching comets.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>OMG! 3 Million miles is Nothing! And green? This isn\u2019t a comet, it\u2019s an alien attack and we are ALL DOOMED.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Astronomers discovered the trailing member of the pair, P\/2016 BA14, a few months ago. It was shrugged off as yet another asteroid, or space rock. Then astronomers peering through a telescope saw it had a tail \u2013 and was therefore a comet. That means BA14 and its larger companion \u201care among the closest comets to pass by Earth in recorded history,\u201d says Knight, who took the first snapshot revealing BA14 is a comet. <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Scientists aren\u2019t yet sure of the nature of the relationship between 252P and its hanger-on. Perhaps BA14 broke off 252P decades ago. Both comets could be pieces from an even bigger comet, or they could be unrelated.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Does the phrase \u201cFirst strike\/Second strike mean anything to you ivory tower types? The last time we were hit, it ended the Dinosaurs. I have located a video of how that event probably occurred.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[youtuber youtube=&#8217;http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5qJPTjMnwNk&#8217;]<\/p>\n<p>This will be a double impact.
