Moon To Collide With M45 Tonight!

As if blinded by its recent encounter with the Sun, The Moon will collided with M45, The Pleiades Star Cluster tonight. This once in a lifetime event will occur shortly after sunset in the western sky. No one knows what damage the bodies will sustain in the collision, but it is thought that the Pleiades will end up looking like the Hercules Cluster when all the dust settles, and the Moon’s Wenslydale composition will appear more like Swiss. "We’re quite excited. This is the first time we’ve ever had a chance to record a cosmic collision of this magnitude, and we have front row seats for the event," stated Donald C. Brown of NASA’s Large Object Small Telescope program.
