...in just 29,000 years, WD0810-353 is going to pass within 0.49 light-years of the Sun. That's a distance of just 31,000 astronomical units, which would bring the white dwarf within the Oort Cloud

That doesn't sound good.

For reference, Neptune is 30 astronomical units from the sun, so this star will pass our sun 1,000 times the distance to Neptune.

That's mighty close. Will earth have two suns? Will the sun capture this star and create a binary star system?

The bigger issue would be if the star causes bodies in the Oort cloud to drift into the inner solar system and hit the Earth.

Hopefully in 26 thousand years we will be able to deal with that.
