Astrologist sues NASA over comet crash

2 hours, 18 minutes ago

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian astrologist who says
NASA has altered her horoscope by crashing a spacecraft into a comet is suing the U.S. space agency for damages of $300 million, local media reported Monday.

NASA deliberately crashed its probe, named Deep Impact, into the Tempel 1 comet to unleash a spray of material formed billions of years ago which scientists hope will shed new light on the composition of the solar system.

"It is obvious that elements of the comet's orbit, and correspondingly the ephemeris, will change after the explosion, which interferes with my astrology work and distorts my horoscope," Izvestia daily quoted astrologist Marina Bai as saying in legal documents submitted before Monday's collision.

A spokeswoman for a Moscow district court said initial preparations for the case were underway but could not say when the hearing would begin. NASA representatives in Moscow were unavailable for comment.

Well if your horoscope is supposed to predict your future and she claims NASA doing this altered hers....shouldn't she have seen it coming....you know her being a profesional and all?

Think NASA can counter sue, based on her breathing air interfereing with their launches? Hey, it has just as much merit!

What does she mean altered? That comet was destined to hit that spacecraft. Orbits don't often change (as far I know), but surely they do sometimes. Would she throw a hissy fit if it fell into a black hole or was attracted too much by some planet's gravitational field and made a satellite?
