I am looking forward to seeing the aftermath of the impact, but it brings up a few questions.
It is a Comet, made from what, ice and maybe a few rocks.
1. The Comet is at absolute zero,(we have all seen what happens to objects frozen in liquid nitrogen). What will happen if it shatter's it.
2. Will the impactor, just make a crater in it, or will it go clean through it, blasting it apart.
3. Could this experiment knock it out of it's current orbit, bringing it into an Earth crossing orbit?
