I guess not many of us will be in northern South Australia at this time but an event is happening this weekend.
Sunday will see a Japanese asteroid spacecraft return to earth in the
Woomera Prohibited Zone.
It has been on a six year mission to gather asteroid samples from space.
Here is a link to a
Brisbane Times article about the event.
A more exact arrival time and place is not yet determined but it will be a fiery sight if you were lucky enough to be there.
