Comet LINEAR: Fade To Black
NASA APOD · Gordon Garradd
COSMIC MESSAGE
Comet LINEAR (C/1999S4 LINEAR) was expected to be a naked-eye comet in 2000, but it did not fulfill that role. Instead, its nucleus fragmented extensively on July 25th, as observed by astronomer Mark Kidger and colleagues using the Isaac Newton Group telescopes. What remained was a faint, fluorescent cloud, fading against a background of stars.
