Project DEEP IMPACT Link Is Here.

This May Sound Sort Of Unaware...But For Some Reason I Feel This Mission Is Totally Unpredictable! Not In The Sense That Comet TempleI May Not Be Struck But In The Sense Of This Being An Event (Detonating A Large Explosive Devise) Unlike Any Ever Done. I Have An Uneasy Feeling As To This Mission Not Felt Since Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and The Moon Landing. In Short...I Hope This Doesn't Upset The Balance Of Nature. I know, I know...Super Explosions Occur Daily In The Vastness Of Space. But Natural Explosions. Not A Bomb Sent From A Puny Planet. It Will Be Fine, I'm Sure. Enjoy The Spectacle! Note:Real Time Imapct Will Not Be Visable From North America Region. But Result Of Impact Should Last For Several Days.

We Must Remember! Remember That This Is Not A Jet Airplane! Not A Common Flight! It Is A Deadly Serious Event Each And Every Time A Vehicle Launches Into Space. Every Second The Astronauts Spend In Their Efforts While In This Unimanigable Environment Should Be Recognized!
