Russian astrologer, Marina Bai, has launched a lawsuit against NASA for “ruin[ing] the natural balance of forces in the universe” after their Deep Impact probe punched a crater into the comet Tempel 1 late Sunday.
According to Associated Press, Bai is seeking damages totalling 8.7 billion rubles ($300 million US) – the approximate equivalent of the mission’s cost – for her “moral sufferings,” Izvestia said, quoting her lawyer Alexander Molokhov. She earlier told the paper that the experiment would “deform her horoscope.”
