Thanks Red Badger. I suggest hitting the snooze button when something like this happens. And if that doesn't work, anyone in the immediate area just stay in bed.

In its orbit around the galaxy, our Sun periodically crosses into dust lanes swept up by the galaxy's electromagnetic forces.

The dust acts as a blanket, trapping a percentage of the Sun's light, this warms the solar surface enough to kick fusion into overdrive and trigger a solar micronova.

That's pretty catastrophic for Earth. Survivable for the lucky and prepared, but a major disaster nonetheless.

The periodicity is about 12,000 years.

The last one was about 12,000 years ago...

At some point, Sol will become a Red Giant and consume EVERYTHING all the way out to the orbit of MARS.
The Earth and everything man has ever done will become Dust in the Wind..........................................
