What is this heavenly object? Science Nicholas Gruen September 23, 2009 Hint – it’s not a comet! Share this:EmailRedditFacebookTwitterLinkedIn
Iridium Satellite Flare.
I give up. It sure looks like a comet:- it has a tail (long exposure photo as shown by the smeared out star images) and is moving against the background stars (again because it is sharp while stars are streaked)
What is it then Nick?
Jacques was not joking.
Wholly shit!
Close. Actually it was holy shit.
A scatellite?
A vomit comet?
Puns are the ordure of the day, you see.
‘Scatellite’ I’ll pay. Vomit comet is not a pun. It’s a rhyme.
The Skatalites? There’s also this song…
Yes, perhaps “vomet” would have been funnier, though still not a pun. What is one of them things? Pormanteau?
