A couple of things made this mission a particularly interesting one.

  1. The first time a man made object landed on (albeit slammed into) a comet.
  2. The first time we could actually have a look inside a comets nucleus, instead of just flyby's.
  3. Many experts had different opinions about what would really happen once the impact took place.

These are a few points of the top of my mind that I can think of that made the Deep Impact mission such an interesting one.
