Very interesting.

I am proud to admit, that this mission is solely responsible for the addition of my new sig line;

"300 million miles away is a spaceship riding on a comet; nothing surprises me!"

If you cannot appreciate what these people ("Mankind") have accomplished there on that rock, you are watching and reading too much mind numbing garbage!

I was watching the Asteroid 2004 BL86 that passed 3/4 of a million mile pass by earth today @ 10 miles per second or 35,000 miles per hour. Waiting on more video and pictures of this .6 mile size asteroid as they become available...
