A giant comet with a diameter of approximately two hundred kilometers is heading toward the Solar System at extreme velocity. In ten years, it will make a fly-by of the Earth. In January, twenty thirty-one we’ll see it – a giant Comet Bernardinelli-Bernstein. This is the largest registered object that ever came to our planet from the Oort Cloud. This Cloud is an area with trillions of icy comets that completely surround our Solar System. At any moment, one of them could get detached and start heading towards us. And whether it’ll be a small shard of ice or a giant comet that will destroy the Earth depends on how lucky we are in that space lottery. We used to rely on the protection of Jupiter, which functioned similarly to a barrier in pinball and prevented space objects from approaching the Earth. But this time it could be entirely different. What will happen if all the comets from the Oort Cloud will make their way toward the Earth? How will a nuclear explosion protect us from a meteor strike? And how are we so lucky to have the Earth undestroyed by a giant meteorite over all these years?
