It's a cascading reaction from the 46lbs of Plutonium we dropped into the Planet, and if this Spot keeps getting bigger, we are in deep crap--once it covers the entire planets atmosphere, the secondary reaction will implode it, and it will become a star--a second SUN.

Or... it's just a black spot. :D If it DOES keep growing, then I have a bad feeling the above isn't just science fiction. Anyone for suntan oil? [img]smile.gif[/img]

LOL! Z, My husband and I were saying the same thing, my question was why the hell were we flying Plutonium around in space in the first place???????

It was powering a Satellite, and the Satellite was out of air propellant (to navigate it, and keep it in orbits, so they decided to crash it so it wouldn't hit the Jupiter's moon and so it wouldn't be loose in space..

I will be watching this closely...
