Astrologer Sues NASA Over Probe

I can recall watching the blockbuster movie "Independence Day" (I like Will Smith's acting) and feeling especially squeamish when they jammed pointed missiles and jet fighters up into the cervix-like opening of The Mother Ship (the alien). I was reminded of how men designed weapons of war and cars...and they like to make them long, hard and fast. That came back to me with the news that NASA, which is basically ALOT of men, planned to inject a probe into a comet in space. It resembled, once again, the thrusting of a penis into a vagina and the forced injection of sperm. I try not to think about these things much, but alas, the symbolism is very clear.

Just as a young boy (and some men) doesn't stop to pause and think about the consequences of sexual intercourse and how it can change his entire future, so it seems with space exploration. NASA appears to not care about what happens to the universe, the planets, the other celestial bodies...It just wants to control space.

In astrology, natal (birth) charts and transit/progressed (current) charts are calculated by mapping the sky out there, so to speak. The mapping is able to be done because through years of trhe science of astronomy (which has historically included astrology), we have tracked the movement of these planets to the second.

NASA appears to not care if it upsets any balance or throws off the orbits of any planets for astronomy and astrology mean nothing to it. One astrologer, however, is taking it seriously adn she is doign something. The BBC News report is below. It hope she can make some headway. The men at NASA need to know that aiming their probes at planets, comets and asteroids and injecting them with what becomes their space garbage, has long-term consequences.........

You know I always wondered about creating a movie called "Liberation Day" and having a huge phallic "Father" ship. There could be lots of round/circular fighters who surround it and shoot lasers etc at it until WHOMP, it simply bends in half, drooping down like a massive flaccid penis, and then it explodes. I do not think men would like that movie. They would walk out of the theater holdig their crotch and feeling hostile....don't ya think?


From BBC News:

"A Russian astrologer is suing Nasa for crashing a probe into a comet, claiming it has distorted her horoscope.

Marina Bai is seeking $300m (�170m) in damages, saying the probe's impact on Comet Tempel 1 violated her 'life and spiritual values'.

She had tried to have a Moscow court prevent the experiment from taking place but her action was rejected.

Nasa smashed the washing machine-sized 'impactor' into the comet at a distance of 133m km from Earth on Monday.

'Interference'

'It is obvious that elements of the comet's orbit and associated ephemera will change after the explosion, which interferes with my practice of astrology and deforms my horoscope,' Ms Bai told the Izvestia daily newspaper.

Nasa scientists hope the experiment will reveal new information on the Solar System's original make-up and perhaps even how life on Earth emerged.

Ms Bai, from Moscow, said the Tempel 1 comet held an important place in her family history, as her grandfather wooed her grandmother by showing her the comet.

Her lawyer, Alexander Molokhov, said the case was based on solid legal ground, since Nasa has an office in Russia, located in the premises of the US embassy in Moscow. "
