TIL: NASA deliberately crashed the spacecraft Galileo into Jupiter, just to keep it from crashing into Europa (a moon of Jupiter) instead - to ensure Europa's protection from our contamination. Because of all the water on Europa. Because that means a higher possibility of life as we know it existing in/because of that water, and who knows what would happen if we contaminated it 
Here's an old article about it: http://www.spaceflig...alileogone.html

Actually she is publishing a book she wrote and never published, years ago. She's far too old and senile to write a new book. (Which is why there is so much speculation over this sudden decision to publish one, people think she is being manipulated or taken advantage of due to her condition)

I don't think eggplants exactly have the same addictive qualities as a cigarette though
Depends on how many you eat, I guess.
