Wallpaper Description:


Millions of years ago the the main belt of asteroids between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter was populated by thousands of active comets. This population aged and the activity subsided. What we see today is the residual activity of that past. Twelve of those rocks are true comets that were rejuvenated after their minimum distance from the Sun was reduced a little. The little extra energy they received from the Sun was then sufficient to revive them from the graveyard. "These objects are the 'Lazarus comets', returning to life after being dormant for thousands or even millions of years," says astronomer Prof. Ignacio Ferrin. "Potentially any one of the many thousands of their quiet neighbors could do the same thing."
