Thanks, but it's titled Near Earth Comet   :-)  As I understand it comets
can be quite large objects overall.
I think you and Christoph are right though, it needs some fading out as it
goes toward the far end.  It does at the very end, many times the length you
can see here, but not in a good way.  At the same time I need to get a
curvature for the dust tail too.  Somehow, someway.
