Remain hiding behind the ignorance, delusions and lies that you are mindlessly supporting from the Thunderbolts crowd, Sol88 :eek
Remain hiding behind the delusion that I cannot explain comet science. 6 years of experience with your need to remain ignorant about comets tells me that it is useless to try to teach you, Sol88.

Sublimation from the ices on comets is very falsifiable. If we never detected the ices sublimating then they do not sublimate! We have detected the products of ices sublimating, thus they sublimate :jaw-dropp.

Nice of you to confirm that you are obsessed with your delusion that comets are rocks to the point that you will not learn about real comets! For example you have ignored for 6 years the basic physics that ices in the conditions found on comets will sublimate and have been observed to sublimate!

The reality remains:

conditions found on comets will sublimate and have been observed to sublimate!
Cool, link?

Come on champ, humor me, how do the observed pits form "jets"?

Are you saying the pits are the nozzles? The "Upright walls" act as a nozzle?

or is HOLGER SIERKS holding back on us and just giving us a red herring?

Where's your "ice"?

Even the "blue stuff" (ICE) on the surface of Tempel 1 was not said to be sublimating and this is the only surface ice found on Nucleus... but we still have receding icy cliffs to deal with?

You mob can't even come up with a coherent explanation for that OBSERVED (not inferred) phenomena...weak as cat's urine!

Not even for the lurkers eh?
Not for you: I know that you are too obsessed with your delusion that comets are rocks to ever accept any explanation for anything from anyone.

If I had the time then I would explain it in a separate post to lurkers. But I suspect that they are smart enough to learn this stuff for themselves. They should not be ignorant enough to stick with the delusion that comets are rocks for over 6 years despite the evidence that comets are not rocks.

The lurkers already know how delusional the EC idea is (see my signature) and can read about the ignorance, delusions and lies of the Thunderbolts crowd that you are parroting.

So more avoidance Sol? I reiterate; where is YOUR evidence? As I said, you have absolutely zero, yet you still use your obvious lack of scientific knowledge to question real science, whilst believing in this faith based, evidence free delusion. No evidence = no hypothesis. Just a dumb idea that continues to milk money from gullible, scientifically illiterate loons.
And you wonder why real science has totally ignored it, and will no doubt continue to do so. In the meantime, whilst ignoring it, they're sending missions to Ceres, Pluto and 67P.
EU is a total irrelevance as far as the world of real science is concerned. Up there with astrology and homeopathy.

The EU has plenty of evidence and a coherent hypothesis which by the way can also explain the bright spots on Ceres and the structures found on Pluto unlike the mainstream who seem consistently surprised, surprisingly!

:whistling yeah thought so too, you have not the faintest idea how the "cliffs", "standing walls" and "Upright walls of pits" produce energetic jets!!!

Come on some "mainstreamers" here has to a least have some idea on how to reconcile the observation with the dirtysnowball theory.

SO LET'S HEAR IT!!!!! (the evidence, that is, not the idiotic hypothesis; we've heard enough of that garbage)

How do we treat Sol88's statement that comets made up out of ices and dust need to be "reconciled" with observed features of comets such cliffs, pits and standing walls.

First by pointing out that it is yet another statement from ignorance from Sol88- it is a delusion by definition :p!
Secondly by pointing out the science that is explained in the literature that Sol88 has even cited!
* we expect pits (sublimating ices blowing off the layers above them). A suggestion for some highly collimated jets is that a tougher layer forms a nozzle over the pit: Formation of jets in Comet 19P/Borrelly by subsurface geysers (PDF)
* sublimating ices create all sorts of structures including standing walls and cliffs, e.g. the receding ice cliffs on Tempel 1 that Sol88 has mentioned several times.

So to anyone who knows about comets no reconciliation is not needed.

Great, thank you RC, much appreciated!


That's all I needed. :)

Pits, standing walls and cliffs are all evidence of sublimating ices.
So I am glad to see that you have given up on the delusion that comets are rocks after 6 years, Sol88 :p. Except that I know that you will actually repeat that delusion very soon now ...
 
Should be mentioned as well that a velocity of 0.5-0.8 km/s for the observed H2O gas expansion is nothing to get one's knickers in a twist about either. Previous observations and, more importantly, modeling, suggest that is an expected expansion rate for H2O on a comet, where it is escaping into a vacuum. There are various processes that control the velocity, and it is all rather involved, and many of the papers that seem to be quoted regarding the modeling, no longer seem to be easily available.
Suffice to say, the velocity is not unexpected, and doesn't require "pressurised jets".
To quote from one paper I read online.........."This value of 0.5-0.6 km s^-1 is signifcantly below that predicted by thermo-hydrodynamical models. Those models show that the gas outflow velocity at the distance where H20 molecules dissociate is at least 0.7-0.8 km s^-1."
From http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/...=NO&data_type=GIF&type=SCREEN_GIF&classic=YES
So really just another argument borne of ignorance of the science. These models have been around for a long time. Predates the internet, which is probably why they are difficult to find.

and they are collimated how exactly?

I don't think anybody here is denying "ice" sublimates into a vacuum but you have to ask the question, why do some of the icy moons we have in our solar system not appear like comets?

Well that would be quite clear if you would actually understand the electric comet model.
 
Show me an icy moon in the water sublimation zone...

Well Hale-Bopp was still discharging (sorry outgassing) beyond the water sublimation zone...

Four years after Hale-Bopp left the inner solar system, it was still active. It displayed a coma, a fan-shaped dust tail, and an ion tail -- even though it was farther from the Sun than Jupiter, Saturn or even Uranus. The comet's tail was shrinking, but it was still about five times longer than the distance between the Earth and the Moon. At this distance, the Sun's heat will not melt ice. If it could, the icy moons of Saturn and Jupiter would be as dry as our own scorched Moon.
