What's with all this media obsession about the lunar impact planned for tonight? Was no one paying attention when they did this 10 years ago? Neat, but hardly a big deal.

Also put into perspective, space activity that happens only once a decade seems noteworthy as well.

Totally fair, and I always encourage interest in what NASA is doing. But the tone of the coverage is much more 'omg they're bombing the moon!!!!' with little context.

Hey, if it bleeds, it leads, and mister...that moon is going DOWN.

Wanted: ethnic slur for people from the moon. Craterheads?

Oh, no! The moon's going to end up covered with craters at this rate!
