Ok, so it's not this planet (it's Mars (http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/space/12/21/mars.asteroid.ap/index.html)) and it's only a chance but it would be too cool! The comet strike on Jupiter was fun to watch, this could be so much cooler, and it's projected impact point is not far from one of the rovers so we could get some really nice photos....

Oh great. First the writer's strike, then a comet strike.

Who's next?

A lightning strike? Pretty common, though, so it just isn't exciting.

We'll have to protest with a hunger strike. Maybe we'll get arrested. I hope is won't be the 3rd strike for anyone.

What a pain in the asteroid.


Some Comet could clean that right up.

Comet probably made the mess... isn't there a stable elf that can do the cleanup?

They are all far to unstable.

Can you clean Comet's mess with Comet cleaner?

Can we please strike these posts from the record?

Oh dear Lord what evil have I wrought in creating this thread? Please God do not strike me dead for my sins.

Thanks.

Astronomy does strike my fancy.

And with that Capt Jack bowls a strike.

I just hope my comments don't strike out with anyone.

I thought asteroids were illegal these days? Better to inject them in the arm, anyway.
