1 In 75
Friday, December 21, 2007
Although its only a 1 in 75 chance of happening its worth hoping for. There is an asteroid hurling towards Mars and may hit the red planet on January 30th. If it does this will give scientists a great way to study impacts and their aftermath. The earth has had its fair share but the last big one was in 1908 in Siberia. We won't be able to view much of the impact if it does occur with the naked eye but there are enough satellites and telescopes that will be watching.
