An interesting article on a proposal to have NASA place a radio tracking beacon on an asteriod that is 320m in diameter with a high probability of striking the Earth in 2029. The purpose of the beacon would be better establish the asteriod's orbital parameters in order to decide if it should be deflected. http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=17666 P.S. - Patrick, I didn't see this one flow through your news emailer. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
