should of said this earlier, Some trivia info for total newcomers to comet observing: what we are seeing with the daily positioning of fragments in relation to each other atm, and particularly this morning gone (june 1st), is the result of the earth crossing the orbital plane of the comet, viewing it edge on so to speak - never seen it so well illustrated visually!, although anomalous tails (antitails ect.) can also demonstrate that well.
