COSMIC MESSAGE

Comet ISON, a sungrazing comet, was initially thought lost after its close approach to the Sun. However, material from the comet surprised observers by reappearing and developing a fan-shaped dust tail. This video was composed from frames taken by the SOHO spacecraft's coronagraphs.
