Earth in grave danger blah blah blah

Earth is in danger of a catastrophic comet shower, warn scientists

God put us in this part of the universe for study and to gaze upon the wonders of space
not this nonsense

Reminds me of the bit from M.I.B. where J tells K about the imminent threat to the planet and K in all seriousness asks, "Did he say when?"

"Earth is in grave danger of being hit by a catastrophic comet shower triggered by the sun, warn scientists

* The study found that we wrongly thought we were in a 'safe zone'
* Scientists discovered a correlation between extinction events on Earth to the path our solar system takes through crowded areas of the Milky Way
* The galactic disk of the Milky Way contains dense clumps of dark matter
* Researchers claim the dark matter can throw comets into planet's path"

This isn't news. This was a recent episode of "How The Universe Works"

There is a recurring extinction event possibly caused by cometary impact. We're like 100k years overdo for the next one.

Won't global warming destroy the comet before it gets here

Since before the planet cooled.
