Re: APOD: 700 Kilometers Below Comet Hartley 2 (2010 Nov 08)

,,,©¿©,,, Well, the science is all cool.. but the name Hartley 2.. could we change it to "The Chicken Leg"™.. :-) Anyway, the smooth middle could be from rubble from the past being pulled in by graity, and rolling around like a grinder before it was ejected over time from the comet.

Looking at the two pictures, it looks as though the comet has broken into two parts in the lower picture. Does this look to be true?
