I would have been 7 at the time, but I still remember Hale-Bopp. It feels like a great privilege to have been alive to witness such a rare and spectacular astronomical event with my naked eyes.
I remember telling my brother in law about Hale-Bopp and he said “ha you can never see those things” I said come with me. We had a perfect view from his front yard. The whole family followed us outside and were awed by the sight.
I will never forget the beauty of Hale Bopp as long as I live. Two memories that make me misty-eyed: gazing at it from a balcony in France sipping wine with friends on my first independent trip abroad, then a week later when my mum collected me from the station, we stopped the car in the countryside and shared a moment of wonder together. I hope everyone on here too young to have seen it gets a chance at another one day.
I remember seeing this magnificent comet in the sky for months over Bedfordshire in 1997! I was 24 at the time, and it was a privilege to be present at that moment in the life of the solar system. I wonder what the next set of living humans will think when they witness its next passing and look back at our records from 1996/97?
I was living in Flagstaff AZ when Hale-Bopp came through and have vivid memories of it in the twilight sky. It's an interesting town because it's 2100 meters above sea level, and great for stargazing. It's also, coincidentally, where Lowell first discovered Pluto with his telescope on the hill above town.
I remember watching the comet Hale-Bopp in the night sky from Pune, India. I was in secondary school and was taking an introductory course in Astronomy.
I got to see Halley's Comet through the telescope in the University of Prince Edward Island's observatory in 1986, and with some luck, I'll get to see it again in 2061! Unfortunately I lived in the southern hemisphere for Hale-Bopp's 1997 visit, from where, if I recall correctly, it was more or less not visible.
Shoemaker Levy 9!! I remember seeing videos of that as a kid and being so incredibly awed by it. So many aspects of it, the orbiter to see it, the fact it was a comet IMPACTING and not just going by, the fact that we were able to see the impact in effectively real time, the fact that it left obvious scars on Jupiter. One of my favorite astronomy moments, and I wish I was around earlier to see it in its time.
I have very similar experiences. We talked about Halley in the school and then nothing came off it. Hale-Bopp I saw when I was in the military service. We walked all night in the forest. It was cold night so the sky was clear. HB was clear in the sky. I also saw an aurora for the first and only time. It's quite rare to see auroras so south. There were also shooting stars and a full moon. So proper show
What I remember about Hale-Bopp was being able to see it when the sun was just below the horizon, because it was as bright as the moon. Then at night in a clear area where you could see The Milky Way, its tail stretched clear across the sky like a second Milky Way arm.
I remember it being low in the sky, every clear night but high enough to view without seeking high ground. And it was as fascinating every night to me. I got very frustrated that so many of the people I knew seemed to get used to it, whereas I was constantly awed by its beauty. My son was a baby and I was quite upset that he wouldn't remember it when he was older.
The Hale-Bopp winter college experience is a great memory as well for me. Middle MN, USA. Would race home to sit in the snow to look at it over the frozen pond. Huge. Awesome.
My partner and I stepped out of our first apartment to look down the street at it many a night. I still remember it over the trees that lined the street.
I remember it well! Only comet I ever saw. My friends and I were working on a project to put fibre optics in the sewers of Paris and we took an evening to go to the roof gallery of the tallest building in Paris - Tour Montparnasse and we had a good view, despite the city lights.
I was going to college in upstate New York in 1997; it was so cool to see this comet every night walking around campus with friends. Knowing that it won’t be back for another 2,000+ years, I feel fortunate!
I drove about 150 km from Vancouver, almost to Hope, to photograph Hale-Bopp, mounting a Pentax 6 x 7, 400 ISO film, 165 mm f2.8 lens, mounted on a self-made "barn door tracker", with pivoting adjustment screw, running on a ball bearing point, and aimed with the scope from my rifle, which allowed me to get a good approximation of the offset of the pole star...I think I spent about a week on the mount👍 And, just the tiniest elliptical smear on the several thousand stars... Ended up with a beautiful shot, both "tails" clearly visible.. Thanks for the reminder of that experience!
My mom, 94 year old grandmother and I (staff at her nursing home agreed to let us take her) went to the North of Grand Manan and watched Halle-Boo over the Bay of Fundy. Such a wonderful experience. Nana lived to 101 and was always keen on new experiences. She wondered if the comet if the next time it appears it would be visible from heaven!
This rekindled such great memories of the two comets in those years, and the special times at Mt A. Thanks for an interesting and informative and super engaging video!
I actually have 2 connections to this video! 1) We had fabulous views of Hale-Bopp from the top of the hill behind us; my 1 year old daughter loved seeing it in the Sky, and "Bopp" was one of her early words! 2) I've been to Sackville, New Brunswick, and visited the Radio Canada International shortwave broadcast facility there. How cool.
I remember it vividly, I was a teen and fascinated by it. It was an astonishing show. The size of the tail was enormous. Several times the size of the full moon. I recently discussed about it with friends, and I was very surprised to be the only one to remember it.
Yayy! you're back! I remember hale-bopp too, I was 14 but I remember reading about it and then going to my roof and finding it quite easily. And even though I lived in a big polluted city it was still a great sight
I was living in the Lakes working as an outdoor instructor and also a member of an MR Team… so I was out in dark skies pretty much every night… wonderful days and months.
I was approaching my 6th birthday when Hale-Bopp appeared. I remember the fuss about it, but I don't remember the comet itself. I think I saw it, but I can't bring the memory to mind. 😞 I was very glad when NEOWISE came in 2020.
I remember this so distinctly, I was 7/8 at the time. I grew up in southern Michigan on 10 acres, in the countryside where we had NO light pollution. And our closet neighbors were like 1/4 mile away. Coupled with the normally clear night skies of Michigan. I just remember that it was around for so long. It was especially astounding during the crisp winter nights. It was like, every time I was outside, I looked overhead and there it was. Mind you -- I thought it was Halley's Comet, because that's what we were briefly taught about in school 😅 It's a such wonderful memory - one that I wish I could re-live. I know for a fact that it was one of the many reasons why I still have a great passion for astronomy.
I remember it still. I just turned 11 years old and I looked up the sky at night and I wondered what that was...I looked at it every night. It was so stunning. Halley's Comet came when I was born. I'm a star child 😅
What a blast from the past! As you said, we in the southern hemisphere could only gasp at the pictures from the north. We only got a brief glimpse very near the horizon for a short time. Luckily McNaught, also known as the Great Comet of 2007, made up for this. One of my first articles in a journal was on Hale-Bobb, so a special memory!
This was THE comet to see. I was in San Diego and it was there like the moon...a fuzzy object and it was almost as big as the moon. I was in the US military and we would go out on night ops at Camp Pendleton near Oceanside, Calif. where it's pitch black and the comet was beautiful. Especially with night vision goggles. 😄 I hate to say people were getting used to the comet in the sky until it was gone. It made up for Hailey's Comet for sure. In my 60s, the odds of seeing another like it are very slim.
I have a memory of the winter before Hale-Bopp arrived. A friend and I were outside at night, looking up at the night sky, and we saw an unusual object. It was a star surrounded by a tadpole-shaped haze. It wasn't obvious, but the more you studied it, the more you thought it looked like a comet. Neither of us had heard anything about a comet on the news or in the papers. Later on, I saw a report that it was indeed a comet we saw. Want to say it had a long japanese sounding name, but I could be wrong. The next year Hale-Bopp showed up and nobody remembers the one from the year before. I tried googling it without luck. Does anybody else remember that? It was just fun noticing an actual comet without anybody bringing it up beforehand.
I was stationed in North Texas when it made it's first appearance. I drove home to Missouri at night and I could see it all night long off to my left. My dad passed away, at 96 years old, during this time and remember it high in the sky the night of his wake.
I remember seeing the comet for weeks. I wasn’t that interested in astronomy at the time but definitely impressed me. I am Suprised that after 28 of so years it ‘only’ travelled 40AU.
I was 14 when hale bopp was visible! We was visiting my family in Arkansas from California and it was such a site! It seemed so close close that greenish blue tail was so long looking and amazing!
I remember Halley in 1986 in Puerto Rico and again when I lived with my dad in 1997 I also saw Hale-Bopp it lasted 16-18 months depending on what part of the planet you were in Puerto Rico you could see it every night up and realnclose and clear until it fades in late 1997.
I was too young (and not in the right location anyway) to actually get to see Hale-Bopp, unfortunately. I wish I'd gotten to experience it. I still remember my experience seeing the 2007 comet McNaught, it was great.
The actually surprising thing about Hale-Bopp was that it was the second big comet in a very short time span. Hyakutake was basically just one or two years earlier and both comets were considered events that in average happen every 20 years.
Hale-Bopp and Shoemaker-Levy transcend the music of my teenage years Der Dritte Raum - Hale Bopp The Cure - Jupiter Crash And I'm pretty sure that Counting Crows' "Recovering the Satellites" album cover art was inspired by Hale-Bopp too even if the album has been released (october 1996) before Hale-Bopp reached its maximum brightness. The "Swing Bop" version is a treat too btw! :)
So, last time it passed by the pyramids were being built? Any Egyptian records of comets? I too remember trying to see Halley's comet as a kid and never seeing anything. Hale-Bopp hung out in the night skies when I got off the buss from university in the evenings. Spectacular, should have payed more attention to it.
I was disappointed by both Shoemaker-Levy 9 and Hale-Bopp because nobody explained to me, at six and nine years old respectively, that the photos of comets in science books are greatly zoomed in and enhanced, so when I looked through a telescope at Jupiter and saw just a few small dots and my dad showed me Hale-Bopp in admittedly subpar, light-polluted skies, I couldn't see what all the fuss was about. Now, though, if we ever get another Great Comet in my lifetime, I'll be sure to head to super dark skies in order to properly appreciate it. I missed out, and I won't let another opportunity pass by if it comes.
I too have seen this celestial visitor...the only comet which was cleary visible from the naked eyes and it lasted for several days.....I was 12 that time....but i was very curious about mysteries of the universe ❤❤❤
Hale-Bopp is the only comet I’ve ever been able to see
Před 8 měsíci
Hale-Bopp appeared shortly after the amateur astronomers club I used to be a member in stopped to exist and before the Internet, so I totally missed it... and I am still sad about that
10:44 ???Halley is appearing every 75-79 years. The average age for humans or a little less. Yes I've seen Halley and indeed Hale-Bopp. I feel privileged to have seen them both. Ánd hearing The Beatles in 1962 and...

Well. She's been doing these videos for over ten years. Your doing something right to have so many 'guest presenters' for that long.
I remember looking at it on Christmas Eve. It was a clear cold night and the Comet was spectacular.
Always a pleasure! Thanks for this series.

Hale-Bopp and Hyukatake were more than just sights ... they were _presences_ in the sky. NEOWISE in early July 2020 was an amazing sight too.
i remember seeing this comet and it was so awesome. blew my mind seeing it at dusk
Meghan is always great to listen to.

10:40 it makes me feel special that I got to see it 🤷♂️
The only comet I remember seing. Third grade - one of the reasons for my interest in the night sky.
This was THE comet to see.

What is it's distance at aphelion? Will it get farther away than Voyager?

The comet did set off some cults like the Heaven's Gate tragedy.
Even in Modern times, celestial bodies can make humans do stupid things.
Another brilliant video!
That was the first time I was able to see a comet! It was amazing and I thank the Lord Jesus for it! It definitely fed my love for astronomy.
I 8 years old...I remember it was something everyone was talking about, I may have seen it
I remember this. It wasn’t like you needed binoculars or a telescope, or even dark skies! You couldn’t miss it!

I was 4, I remembered seeing it in the sky when when going out of my home!

Me too. In fact I was a little surprised that weird, useless tragedy got no mention in the video.

if we keep tracking hale-bopp, could we detect nearby gravitational influences that we don't yet know about ?
Wait you went to Mount Allison??? Nobody on the internet went there me too!!!!
So would it now travel to 1,000-1,500 AU before turning back, and much sooner than before due to Jupiter?
Where can I find that awesome solar system simulator?
Thanks! but there's nothing neater than Messier Objects.
Guys remember March 13, 1997, the alien spacecraft in Phoenix AZ, heavens Gate, the coincidence
Hale-Bopp bopp baw-ooh...

I saw it I 1997
There's nothing wrong with philosophizing. Science branched off from philosophy. Most science starts with a question, which is based on thinking about the world around us.
Wrong. Science is the objective physical study of nature.

Fascinating! I remember seeing Hale-Bop as well. I think I was in the 5th grade and you could see it in the northern daytime sky in Ontario.
It’s a shame that a cult kinda took the providence away from it.
