Huge Comet Making a Headlong Plunge in the Solar Corona
A huge comet disintegrated in the Solar Corona as seen by the SOHO solar spacecraft. Some reports describe this comet as 10 up to 50 meters small fragment.
This is not just 50 meters in size but a very big comet that we were not aware that existed in our neighborhood.
In the video you can clearly see this large space visitor making a headlong plung in the solar corona.
This comet must be over 500 m in size.
