There is considerable online chatter that this experiment is not just about the history of the solar system. Some are asking whether or not this is a "star wars" weapons experiment and some are suggesting that this is a rehearsal for the deployment of an anti-earth killer, necessitated by the fact that somebody knows that something big is coming this way.
But we sure hit the bullseye, huh? Great video, at lots of places online.
It was a milestone for the U.S. space agency, which hopes the $333 million experiment will answer basic questions about the origins of the solar system.
