Backward-flying Comet Heralds Discovery of Atlantis?

Comet Lulin Tails Credit & Copyright: Joseph Brimacombe

While the greenish backward-flying , twin-tailed comet, Lulin appears bright in outerspace this week, another enigma seems to have appeared in innerspace... the lost city of Atlantis.

From Atlantis Claimed to Be Found Using Google Earth, Google Says Otherwise :

"...some oceanographers, geophysicists, and other researchers aren't accepting Google's explanation and insist the image might be the long lost city of Atlantis, a staple of Greek mythology. They point out that the location in Google Earth closely echoes where Greek philosopher Plato claimed Atlantis to be located. Plato had said that Atlantis was 620 miles of Africa's coast, past the Canary Islands. He wrote that the land was home to advanced civilization before earthquake and floods sunk it into the sea around 9,700BC — nearly 12,000 years ago.

Editor's note:

In 1623 Sir Francis Bacon expressed his aspirations and ideals in The New Atlantis. Released in 1627, this utopian novel was his creation of an ideal land where "generosity and enlightenment, dignity and splendor, piety and public spirit" were the commonly held qualities of the inhabitants of Bensalem. In this work, he portrayed a vision of the future of human discovery and knowledge. - Wikipedia

The Global Financial Crisis may be birthing Bacon's utopian vision in the form of the New World Order. Comet Lulin's arrival this week just adds to the intrigue of what naysayers label "conspiracy".
