A big thanks to Stuart Robbins for recording a special episode of his Exposing PseudoAstronomy podcast on the Comet Elenin scaremongering. Somebody needed to do it. Stuart explains Elenin, the crazy conspiracy theories about it, and the rational, science-based reality - it's just a regular comet, that won't get any closer to Earth than Venus, and might very well be breaking up. Not very scary.

Anyway,

check out this episode

and then dig into the

Exposing PseudoAstronomy back catalog

.

Thanks to @2012hoax for the link.
