The Gliese 710 encounter will produce a comet shower roughly six times more severe than what Alpha and Proxima will generate. Its unlikely, however, that the increase in the number of comets will lead to an extinction-level impact. Nevertheless, the impending passage of a red dwarf at a distance of only 70,000 AU has a certain panache.

Almost enough time to pay off 0bama's deficit.But since it is growing exponentially as we speak, I wouldn't be so sure about that!
