I still don't think it's the brightest thing they've ever done, but hopefullly it won't crash into anything important or change trajectory at all.

a fine example of "lawsuit culture"

[Paper Hearts]

that's the only thing i've noticed about being an American-it's like you're always on the verge of a lawsuit, whether it is one for or against you.

MOSCOW -- NASA's mission that sent a space probe smashing into a comet raised more than cosmic dust -- it also brought a lawsuit from a Russian astrologer.

Marina Bai has sued the U.S. space agency, claiming the Deep Impact probe that punched a crater into the comet Tempel 1 late Sunday "ruins the natural balance of forces in the universe," the newspaper Izvestia reported Tuesday.

A Moscow court has postponed hearings on the case until late July, the paper said.

Scientists say the crash did not significantly alter the comet's orbit around the sun and said the experiment poses no danger to Earth.

$300 mil. for 'moral sufferings'

The probe's comet crash sent up a cloud of debris that scientists hope to examine to learn how the solar system was formed.

Bai is seeking damages totaling $300 million -- the approximate equivalent of the mission's cost -- for her "moral sufferings," Izvestia said, citing her lawyer Alexander Molokhov. She earlier told the paper that the experiment would "deform her horoscope."

NASA representatives in Russia could not be reached for comment.

The mission gives scientists some information about how they might one day stop a comet if one threatens Earth. AP

Please note that the lawsuit extends from Russia.

Now, if we are all done bashing on American culture at the slightlest chance.. can we get back to the science at hand?

She should be shot for being completely retarded. The Nasa reps couldn't be reached because they were to busy ROFLMAO at the stupidity of such a lawsuit.

"ruins the natural balance of forces in the universe,"

You can't technicly ruin it, you can only change it, and we've been changing the balance of things for far longer than that on earth. I say get over it.

Whats that sound? It's the worlds smallest violin, playing just for her.
