12 Things you may not have known about Comet ISON



Xnewsman has sent in a great article that lists some fun facts that you may not have known about the Comet ISON, Like:

1)  This is the first trip to the inner solar system for ISON and its last.  Its orbit will swing it around the sun and back towards deep-space, with enough energy to exit the solar system all together.

2)  ISON's orbit inbound will take it a mere 700 thousand miles above the surface of the sun!

And other fun fact!  Take a trip over to Slate.com for the remainder of this article.   It really is a fun read.
