Russian Astrologer Sues NASA for Upsetting Universe Balance With Comet Mission
Posted on: Monday, 4 July 2005, 03:00 CDT
Excerpt from report by Russian NTV on 4 July
For the first time in history earthlings are attacking an object in space. A NASA scientific mission under the name Deep Impact has reached its decisive stage. [Passage omitted: details of how spacecraft will collide with comet Tempel 1]
The cost of the project is estimated at 333m dollars. However Deep Impact could end up costing NASA twice as much. Today Moscow's Presnenskiy court opens hearings of a lawsuit against the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Astrologer Marina Bay is requesting that moral damage be compensated to her. She maintains that the NASA mission is encroaching upon, I quote, her system of spiritual values and disturbing the balance of forces in the universe [end of quote]. Bay has estimated her moral claims at 321.5m dollars.
