According to the Russian astronomer Nikolai Fedorovsky, a giant comet flying at top speed is bound for Earth. Should the comet stay on the collision course, it may hit the planet in late October. The impact will cause devastating tsunamis, earthquakes and avalanches, says Fedorovsky. He saw the killer comet in a telescope two weeks ago. He managed to calculate the comet’s trajectory. We got in touch with Nikolai Fedorovsky:
“I’m not trying to scare anybody, I just want to warn the public,” sums up Fedorovsky. “We should pay attention to this suspicious celestial body. We could obtain more accurate calculations if other astronomers join forces. We could also photograph it if we’re in luck. We will probably partake in one of the greatest events in the history of humankind,”

Whatever it takes to stop the dims from gaining control of the house, if it means we collide with comet causing cataclysmic destruction then so be it!

“We shouldn’t underestimate the threat
poised by asteroid and comets,”
Is translating from Russian to English that hard? If I hadn't known any better, I thought the author went to American public schools.

"What's 'top speed' for a 'giant comet', anyway?" Generally, it's when it pegs red in fifth gear.
