       TIL in about 1.29 million years a star will enter the Solar System’s Oort Cloud, passing less than 1/5th of a light year from the Sun and will be visible to the naked eye.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gliese_710?wprov=sfti1https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1583ett/til_in_about_129_million_years_a_star_will_enter/

       @todayilearned Once it passes the Oort Cloud it will disturb some of the millions of comets that exist there. Many will be directed into the inner solar system possibly hitting the earth and other planets. Given the lazy incompetence of todays politicians over climate change we had better start planning how we will deal with this next crisis.
