Hi all -
Why were the films "Deep Impact" and "Armagedon" made? They were not imspired
by the impact of Comet Shoemaker Levy 9 with Jupiter.
It appears that after "Titanic", James Cameron was going to make "Dark Angel
Falling", but "Titanic" went over in time, and "Dark Angel Falling" was
cancelled. Its competitors "Deep Impact" and "Armagedon" did make it to the
screen.
By the way, Obama/Boldne/ Garver have propossed $16 million more per year for
the NASA NEO detection budget. As $20 million per year is still $30 million per
year short of the NRC middle option, we'll have to see what the NSF pitches in.
The announcment of a new Jupiter/Direct initiative is expected tomorrow.
