Planet Earth could be at higher risk of a space rock impact

Centaur, or giant, comets Earth are likely to fall apart into dust and massive fragments that will flood the inner solar system with cometary debris and would make inevitable impacts on Earth.

I hope you saw it too!


On Christmas Day, there will be a full moon, the first since 1977.

This full moon, the last one for 2015, is called a Full Cold Moon because it happens during the start of winter.

A full moon on Christmas won't happen again until 2034.
