I applied the patch which will at least remove comet1.png. I also slowed 
it down a bit, twisted it and turned its angle back from radial to look 
more how people would expect it to rather than how it really is in 
space. (It appears, in my office, people side with ignorance over 
pedanticism)

I would leave it in and let it be incorrect but not really fussed if it 
is cut. If you want it kill it then comment out the #define.
