How soon before Obama sends out a message using the Aricebo Dish to Apologize for stealing comets from other star systems?
Obama: “The Sun acted stupidly in taking the comets that belonged to the Romulan Star System 1.654 billion years ago....”

My Uncle Art had a Comet. It was black with an automatic transmission. I always wondered where that car went. Thieving sun.....could’ve stole Uncle Bill’s Thunderbird.....that thing was a lemon.

small chunks of rock and ice So where did all the Oxygen necessary to form the rock (presumably SiO2, but maybe other mysterious stuff too?) and ice come from?

I understand that the comets themselves in the cloud are probably very far apart, but still...a “shell” of comets surrounding star systems would seem to add a nasty complication for would-be interstellar space-farers.
