They originally said they were going to shoot it down Thursday. Shooting it down today is a change in plans. So you're not going crazy.

They actually said on the news here that Darwin, Perth and Adelaide have debris warnings.
Nowhere near me

I'm confused. What does this have to do with Mookie? Are we going to slam him into the moon?

I think they're going to dig up Canada and sling shot it to the moon.

Help me.

Is the satellite dying and going to crash anyway, or are we crashing it just to look for hydrogen?

If it's the former, ok, guess I can understand it in the name of learning and possibly being more cost effective (according to the article it's cost effective), but if it's the latter, that seems a little silly to me.

If this can in any way reduce PMS or help the war on lycanthropy I'm all for it.

Is that a problem up there? Do you guys not have enough silver or something?

Just about as much as the original article did.

This one is a shuttle that is designed to simply crash into the moon. I guess it is cheaper than giving some astronauts a couple pick axes.
