Answer:

I found interesting aboutOn December 15, Comet Dutta was only 80,000 kilometers away. Many people began admiring it but were unaware of its danger.

Answer 2

Answer:

The most astonishing aspect of Comet II is that humans have developed to this extent that they can change the course of nature.

A we can see in this chapter, an astronomical object is heading on our way and that object is so far from Earth but still technology can deviate its route.

Explanation:

• In this story, scientist Dutta predicted a direct hit by a comet.
• There was a possibility that it might collide with our planet resulting in loss of life and property.
• So, he along with the other experts decided that some action was needed, an offensive action precisely.
• They finalized that Comet Dutta could be marginally deflected from its path by giving it a push with the help of nuclear power available on the Earth.
• A spacecraft filled with nuclear explosives, suitably placed, suitably directed and suitably timed could achieve this herculean task.

Hence, the planning of such extreme project and its possibility was the most interesting part of this story.
