Burke was the designation of a comet orbiting Sol until the mid-22nd century.
Verteron pulses from the Martian verteron array altered Burke's course in 2147, causing it to fall toward Mars for use in the Martian terraforming project. Nearing the end of its' journey the comet's nucleus measured 15 miles across, surrounded by a 100,000 mile coma. Burke impacted on Mars' northern polar icecap on a January dawn in 2155.
