There is another comet out there coming so close to Mars soon, that you can’t separated if from the planet using NASA small body simulator.

Yes, I remember reading about that. Exciting. Close call for Mars! And potentially not good for it next time the comet comes around. Don’t like these close calls. They always change the comet or asteroid’s orbit and then you have to think about what that might mean for us.
