Great post Doc. I like that writer and how he uses our worse to show our best. He is pretty good.
Anyway I posted on the results of the impact. I watched in on NASA TV on the web was cool stuff. I did not even expect the size of the explosion, I think it even suprised Nasa. Perhaps the comet is not as dense as they expected.
