Can I see on this page how fast the comet is when touching the earth orbit? Or do I need to calculate myself? I'd like to know because want to know how fast the dust producing the meteors is, when hitting the earth. This could make the text describing the perceived origin of the meteor shower better.

The dust particles hit Earth at "133,200 mph (60 kilometers per second) relative to the planet", according to Space.com. --1Winston 17:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So, it's about twice the speed of the Earth relative to the sun. Now, I'd like to know whether the comet had the same speed. JanCK 23:50, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs revision. It claims both "certain" impact on Earth but also the threat has disappeared. Which is it?
