LOS ANGELES — The chance of a football field-sized asteroid plowing into Mars next month has been increased to 4 percent, scientists said Friday after analyzing archival data.

Though still a long shot, some researchers are hoping for a cosmic smash.

"I think it'll be cool," said Don Yeomans, who heads the Near-Earth Object Program at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "Usually when an asteroid is headed toward Earth, I'm not rooting for an impact."

Asteroid may hit Mars next month!

The chances of that asteroid hitting Mars is up to 4% now and some scientists are actually hoping for an impact!

I wonder how the Martians feel about that! Let's all hope for a big disaster on Mars, that makes a lot of sense! Cool!

For those of you who believe there are secret bases on Mars, I guess we should expect some sort of missile intercept since we cannot have all the bases destroyed right?

if it miss's will it hit us on the next orbit?..hope so ...lol

I think that ATS should establish a betting pool for the Mars impact!

Admins, -- could you please set it up?

yeah I am sure missiles will destroy it....just as the moon bases destroy all the asteroids that hit the moon.

Stan James probably has odds on it!!!Ill offer 20-1 it hits Mars, 10 to 1 it misses! Ill give you the 7ball, and the breaks, race to 15, 9-ball for the whole asteroid!

Hi uk, Could you just give us a short recap of what Mcanney's theory is in your own words and how it is affecting this object?
Listening to radio programs is cumbersom and time consuming for me. Thanks!
