I will definitely be keeping my eye on the passing of this comet. It's a good idea to keep watching the Sun and Earth as well as worldly events.

FRAGMENT C: The biggest piece of comet 73P/Schwassmann Wachmann 3 is not falling apart. Sturdy fragment C, for reasons unknown, resists crumbling.
This makes it different from the other 40+ fragments of the dying comet.
Tonight is a good night to see fragment C. Point your telescope toward the double star zeta Herculis in the keystone of Hercules: sky map. Fragment C is passing by that star tonight, making it especially easy to find.--spaceweather.com

Wow! Indeed, like a coral snake, it is a beautiful thing.
If we're not out of its way, it could be deadly or harmful.
Looks to me as if the chances of NONE OF THOSE FRAGMENTS hitting us on the 26th or the 27th or the 28th or 29th, etc., is nearly ZILCH.
We're in the cross-hairs, Friends. And worst of all, the US has got it coming--for presumptive, pre-emptive genocide.

Kent,
If you choose, will you please explain the GRB in terms of the Voice of the Elohim

Gamma-ray bursts are believed to be the largest explosions in the universe since the big bang. Early on when first detected they were deemed, "the Genesis Signal" a transmission of a force so powerful you could nearly account for the entire known universe--if translated through Einstein's fundamental equation, E=MC2. In fact the early models of the GRB source [a body radiating in all directions] threatened Einstein's equation.
NOTE GENESIS SIGNAL: On August 27th, 1998, an intense flash of X-rays and gamma-rays swept through our Solar System
http://members.aol.com/phikent/orbit/orbvibes.html
Later astrophysicists in the UK proposed a more accommodating model, that is the source [magnetar, hypernova, collapsar] would in fact only transmit in two direction like a laser signal out of a disk. Thus they preserved the Einsteinian.
Even the recent UK model troubles my vision. These intense signals happen all the time. What are the probabilities of so many extra-galactic cohesive beams intersecting our solar system? Troubling! Currently we have four GRBs within the past seven days.
http://grb.sonoma.edu/index.php
So with my troubled vision I tend to go inward in search of experience of my own which might ease the question.
In the mid-Eighties I experienced an OBE [out-of-body]. During this event I journied from my 3D nest, to a 4D astral world and then to be launched even further into a Cosmos of pure light, metaphorically the "El"*.
The entrance in to the light was effected by going through a membrane or placenta.
I therefore postulate that the GRBs are what we see of a breach in the placenta that surrounds the "known" universe. Thin spots!
*ELohim, ELectricity, ELement, angEL= the EL

ew!
I like that idea... 
if ya feel like it Kent, I'ld like to hear more on this thought....

Some background:
Comet train' to swing by Earth in May
Johnny Horne
Comets have fascinated humans since prehistoric times.
They can appear but once in a human lifetime, like Halley’s comet in its 76-year orbit. Or they can remain visible for months like Comet Hale-Bopp in 1997. They can even crash into a planet like Jupiter, as Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 did in 1994.
These dirty clumps of ice and rock are considered pristine material from the earliest days of our solar system. Sometimes, we get a chance to watch their death throws when they break apart and disintegrate as they make their swings around the sun.
Such a breakup of one comet has been going on for more than a decade now, and the comet’s train of pieces will make a close swing by earth in May. The comet is named Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3.
A fragmented history
Though Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 is thought to have been around since our solar system formed, what we know about it began in 1930.
That’s when German astronomers Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Arthur Wachmann discovered the comet. It would be the third comet discovery to bear their names.
In 1930, the comet passed less than 6 million miles from earth, one of the closest comet passages on record. After discovery, astronomers calculated that the comet circled the sun once every 5.3 years. Even with that relatively small orbit, it would be many years before the comet would be spotted again. Its small size meant a close approach to earth would be needed before it became bright enough to be easily detected. Between 1930 and 1974, it wasn’t seen at all.
It turned up again in 1995 and appeared brighter than expected. It’s sudden increase in brightness was caused by the comet breaking up into many smaller comets. Photographs made of the comet in 1995 show a large piece of comet with several smaller ones following along in its orbit.
Comets can break apart from for several reasons. A close passage by the planet Jupiter with its strong gravity can disrupt them, as can thermal stresses caused by repeated heating from sunlight.
The reason for interest in the comet now is that on May 12, Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 will again swing close by earth, at a distance of only 7.3 million miles. That’s about 29 times further than the moon. Also, the “train” of lesser comets following the brighter chunk of Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 number about 40 pieces now. It’s a rare treat for so much comet debris to pass so close to us.
Seeing Schwassmann-Wachmann 3
Unfortunately, most of the 40-odd chunks of this comet are too faint to see very well, even using large telescopes. If we want to hunt this one down and see a piece of it for ourselves, we’re better off hunting the largest and brightest comet chunk.
That biggest piece is named fragment “C,” and in early May it could be bright enough to be easily seen through binoculars, maybe even with the unaided eye. It will mean staying up late or rising early and finding a dark site far from city lights. The rest of the comet’s pieces are much fainter than this main body.
When I last observed the comet on the morning of April 20 it was fairly easy to see in large binoculars from my backyard in Stedman. Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 should be getting ever brighter for the next couple of weeks.
A coincidentally easy and convenient way to zero in on Schwassmann-Wachmann 3’s position comes around 5 a.m. on May 5-9. (OK … so the time isn’t that convenient.) The comet appears almost exactly dead overhead on those dates around 5 a.m., so plan on taking a look with binoculars on clear mornings on those dates. You’ll notice the comet’s motion day after day if you observe it on consecutive mornings.
To find Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 earlier in the evening (if you call midnight early), face east around midnight on clear nights between tonight and May 9.
High overhead will be the seven stars of the big dipper, with the dippers “bowl” facing downward. Follow the arc of the dipper’s curving handle to a very bright star in the eastern sky. That’s the star Arcturus. Low in the northeastern sky is another star about the same brightness as Arcturus; that’s the blue-white star Vega. Just for reference, that very bright object over in the southeast will be the planet Jupiter.
Use your binoculars to “sweep” the area of sky on a line between the stars Arcturus and Vega. You should run into a fuzzy object…and that will be fragment “C” of Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3. Don’t expect it to jump out at you, and if you’re trying to spot it from a brightly illuminated urban location, you’d be better off just going to bed. The comet will likely be too faint to show up well in a bright sky.
Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 will move closer to and dive between two stars near Vega on the morning of May 8.
After May 9, the waning moon will also be in the sky for several nights, and it’s light will tend to wash out the faint comet. If however, Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 brightens, it could be easily visible even in moonlight. If the larger fragments break apart further, the comet could brighten considerably.
On the web
The Web site space.com has an online article about the comet at www.space.com/spacewatch/060414_night_sky.html.
Sky and Telescope magazine’s coverage of the comet appears at skyandtelescope.com/observing/objects/comets/ article_1704_1.asp.
Recent pictures of several of Schwassmann-Wachmann 3’s fragments appear at cometography.com/pcomets/073p.html.

Kent- there are some very unusual master numbers in that chart!
