Because a lot of animals which lived in the sea had been killed too at the same time.. <BR/>anonymous friendAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3163493865891948082.post-83845526330103735222009-03-04T14:34:00.000+01:002009-03-04T14:34:00.000+01:00Normally cometary plasma tails are made of CO+ and...Normally cometary plasma tails are made of CO+ and H2O+; this one in particular, seems to be mainly constitute by CO+ (due to its blue color). In space there is no wind, in the sense we usually intend on Earh; however the Solar System is permeated by a flow of charged particles originating from our star, referred to by the astronomers as "solar wind". The solar wind is the main responsible of the evolution of cometary ion tails, like in this instance. Anyway, there is no risk of getting the stuff ejected by comet LULIN on Earth, since their orbits are not intersecting.
