-"Tails" Explained
In this concept the fiery

of water and other volatile
materials evaporating from the
comet head as the object nears
the sun.
It's conceivable, declared this
scientist who declined to be

could break off-thus becom-
ing chunks of ice-and-stone

But this scientist said that,
to his knowledge, there never
has been an authenticated case
of such meteoric ice reaching
the earth. If anything like
that came from space, he said,
presumably it would contain at
least some radioactive material
and also be dirty. The Georgia
