Seriously. So what? There is absolutely nothing that could be done about it.

If it comes out of the Sun, fast, like a P-51 Mustang on an unaware Messerschmidt we’ll never know what hit us or at least not have enough time to divert it.

Coming out from behind the sun is also a blind spot. I read that once that happens there is nothing anyone can do to stop it.

NASA couldn’t find their asteroid with both hands and a map.

So many ancient civilizations had sky-watching monuments (Stonehenge, Egyptian Pyramids, Mayan Snail-shell, etc.)

Maybe too much Art Bell listening back in the day, but I always wondered maybe they weren’t about planting crops, but a warning to watch for a cosmic interaction (some invisible star, space dust, etc.) that was headed our way.

Kind of like the Vogons and their hyperspace bypass.
