I thought this was a joke, but it’s real.
Here’s an excerpt:
Astrologer�s comet lawsuit lingers
MOSCOW – [Russian astrologer Marina Bai] has sued the U.S. space agency, claiming the Deep Impact probe that punched a crater into the Comet Tempel 1 this week �ruins the natural balance of forces in the universe,� the newspaper Izvestia reported Tuesday. A Moscow court has postponed hearings on the case until late July, the paper said.
Bai is seeking damages totaling $300 million � the approximate equivalent of the mission�s cost � for her �moral sufferings,� Izvestia said, citing her lawyer Alexander Molokhov. She earlier told the paper that the experiment would �deform her horoscope.�
