| Still, astronomers monitoring Hale-Bopp say it has a much better chance of becoming a spectacular sight than did Comet Kohoutek, which fell miserably short of predictions of a dramatic show in 1973. The highly publicized Comet Kohoutek, unusually bright when discovered, proved a dud when it neared the sun in 1973. But the fireworks recorded by myriad telescopes -- some even before the crash sites rotated into view -- exceeded the expectations of astronomers, who had worried that the highly publicized, 6-day event might prove a fizzle -- another Comet Kohoutek. |
