Question # 64 - Difference!

X, which got its name from A, happened to meet B closer than they should have and gave the world a scare! How??



Very well done Abhiram(Welcome to the blog!)

Iris(A) inspired the naming of Iridium(X) and Pic 2 shows Dutch Singer Valensia's album cover of "K.O.S.M.O.S"!

Iridium 33 and Kosmos 2251 - US and Russian satellites collided in space last week, which has happened for the first time in history.

Valensia - Aldous Byron Valensia Clarkson
Album Gaia named after Goddess Gaia
