http://nonsuchastronomy.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 28 November 2013. What do you think? Tail, no nucleus. Breaking up is hard to do. Perhaps one of the last images of Ison. Wednesday, 27 November 2013. Observing Ison at perihelion. So far Comet ISON has spent November sinking ever lower in the east before sunrise as it heads toward the Sun. Ironically, the comet should brighten greatly as it disappears into the Sun's glare. But you might have a long shot at seeing the comet at its very. Use the chart to. The comet should peak in brightness from...

Wednesday, 22 January 2014. Scientists using the Herschel space observatory have made the first definitive detection of water vapor on the largest and roundest object in the asteroid belt, dwarf planet Ceres. This is the first time water vapor has been unequivocally detected on Ceres or any other object in the asteroid belt and provides proof that Ceres has an icy surface and an atmosphere," said Michael Küppers of ESA in Spain, lead author of a paper in the journal.

Nonsuch Astronomy: July 2013
http://nonsuchastronomy.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 24 July 2013. UK team designs human mission to Mars. Scientists at Imperial College London have designed a concept mission to land astronauts on Mars. The plan envisages a three-person crew journeying to Mars aboard a small two-part craft. The craft would rotate to generate artificial gravity and use a heat shield to protect itself against solar flares. The crew would then return to Martian orbit in a pre-sent craft fuelled using ice from beneath the planet's surface. Wednesday, 17 July 2013.

Monday, 19 January 2015. Long Lost British Beagle Probe Finally Found On Mars. On Christmas day, 2003, the British spacecraft Beagle 2 was supposed to make touchdown on the surface of Mars to begin its mission of searching for signs of extraterrestrial life. Scientists eagerly awaited communication from the probe to confirm its landing, but disappointedly, no radio contact was ever made. Beagle 2 was presumed destroyed. What’s more, the images hint at what went wrong on that fateful Christmas day. Martia...
