Probably a dreamer comet. We need walls to keep this kind out. If he was deported from the other solar system then he’s probably not our type either.

“...the comet will pass within 190 million miles of Earth on its closest approach...”
Just for comparison, the earth is about 96 million miles from the sun.

I guess "close" has a lot of definitions.

Here’s a phrase that apparently the airlines simply made up: near miss. They say that if 2 planes almost collide, it’s a near miss. Bullsh!t, my friend. It’s a near hit! A collision is a near miss.
[WHAM! CRUNCH!]
“Look, they nearly missed!”
“Yes, but not quite.

You do realize this thing is coming from another star, right? No one has any real clue where this, or anything else for that matter, comes from.
