And if 2007-WD5 hits Mars next year that would make
3 large impacts in our solar system (that I know of) in a century. Maybe
it's just me, but that seems like alot. I was under the impression that impacts
were less frequent than that. Maybe it will stir up interest in
Apophis.

"facelift"
The article said it was near one of them, but that
the rover itself was actually outside the projected blast area. Mind you,
predicting these things is not an "exact" science. ;)

Isn't it supposed to be coming down in the same area (in geographical
terms) as one of those NASA rovers?

Never mind Hubble - we've got
several orbiters around the red planet and IIRC one of them (MRO?) at least
should have a good view of the event... (if it happens).
I hope it
does hit, it might wake people up to the threat here too...
