[@tiattahiscupcakecandykatan2453]

Comet Holmes is the biggest object in our solar system

[@Nikolai_The_Crazed]

@@jeffreyantizin3731 Bull? What do you mean bull? Observatories across the world did the same thing he did. Turned their telescopes and watched. He doesn’t pull it out much, but he showed me Saturn with his telescope once. Aside from the atmospheric distortion making things ripple, he got a pretty good view of the planet and it’s rings. He was perfectly capable of watching the event himself. He does this sort of thing as a hobby, so how is it bull?

[@Nikolai_The_Crazed]

@@tiattahiscupcakecandykatan2453 the object itself isn’t the biggest, no. The comet is tiny compared to the sun. But a comet is mostly ice, so when a comet passes close to the sun, it begins to warm up. That warming throws out a cloud of dust and steam, and THAT is what grew to a diameter greater than the sun. That cloud sheath, called a Coma, grew to be big enough that you could see it with the naked eye. My grandfather hasn’t told me if he’s seen it himself, so he probably hasn’t. He did start working night shifts around 2005, so, his hobby was a little hampered by his work schedule.

[@FlintandSteel94]

It's always been fascinating to think about this stuff. Realizing that while Jupiter is a big ball of gas and dust, there is a depth at which the atmospheric pressure makes the gas more dense than the Comet, and at this point, it would slam against it like it was striking a solid surface. Planets, and space in general, have always fascinated me, ever since I was a kid.

[@CST1992]

That's not what happened to this comet though - it actually came too close to the planet and broke apart due to tidal forces. The distance limit inside of which this happens is called the Roche limit.

[@FrankyboyFloyd]

The orbit of Jupiter is so vast, it's role in protecting the earth from this is insignificant.....

[@JustAPersonWhoComments]

An object with a high mass close to the Earth could be sent out into a collision course with the asteroid, knocking it off course. When the asteroid is still far from the Earth, a means of deflecting the asteroid is to directly alter its momentum by colliding a spacecraft with the asteroid.

[@TheScienceofnature]

Such a collision would require another massive object. If we can create such and object, we wouldn't need to crash it, we could use its propulsion energy to change the course of the asteroid. Asteroid that can be influenced by current spacecraft are not dangerous, they disintegrate in earth's atmosphere.
