The end of last week to scientists and amateur astronomers, marked a rare event – with SOHO spacecraft was able to capture the collision of fast moving comet to the Sun.
Orbital observatory SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) is used for observing the Sun and the study of place it processes. It is important to note that with this spacecraft was opened around 1500 original solar comets.
According to experts, the comet, the death which he captured SOHO, is a fragment of superkomety, divided into small pieces approximately 2,000 years ago. Formed as a result of the destruction of the body are called family Creutz, in honor of living in nineteenth-century German astronomer Heinrich Creutz.
According to available data, the size imprinted SOHO comet is comparable to the Isle of Wight (Isle of Wight, 380 square kilometers).
Society Vice President Society for Popular Astronomy Skagel Robin (Robin Scagell) noted that the sun collision with a comet of this size is comparable “with the bite of a mosquito.” However, if such an object hit the surface of the Earth, we would have witnessed the formation of a crater the size of a city.
