You guys are probably aware of all the speculations about ISON popping out everywhere on the internet, claiming that Mars somehow interacted with the comet and paraphrasing, lit up, acquired a coma and a tail, or that it was literally hit by ISON and destroyed. Most claims derived from the videos uploaded by James McCanney on YouTube.
The timing of the US government shutdown which paralyzed NASA activities, as well as the total lack of updated images of Mars and ISON by official governmental agencies and mainstream astronomers, is making things worse and giving a lot of room to conspiracy theories.

Can any of you guys who are regularly posting images of ISON up here, please upload some zoomed image of Mars, or anything else that help clarifying these claims??? Thnks in advance!
