With seven official tournaments to go, he could catch Casper. The standings to date...
...rule out the theory that comets are composed primarily of ice and dust. Ikeya-Seki's high temperatures could have occurred only if it contained large amounts of metallic material. Most of the comet's lighter-weight chemical elements were probably boiled away during a previous close approach to the sun. The scientists also measured the total amount of energy Ikeya-Seki radiated before and after it swung around the sun; they calculated that it lost 65% of its mass and broke into two pieces...
