For months the world has watched in awe at a tiny comet called Elenin–one only discovered in 2010.
And now, after all of the fanfare and talk of world disasters, Elenin (or what is left of it) is going to be passing by the blue dot called Earth on Sunday.
Elenin poses no risk of hitting the planet .. and for a few months now astronomers have watched as Elenin broke apart–dampening the theories and perhaps hopes that Elenin could be a doomsday maker. Looks like many will have to wait until the next comet.
At this point, according to scientists, there is not even enough left for a sky watching event..
