Cool video. It gives you an appreciation for just how finely tuned the conditions are for life on this tiny rock we call home. I recall reading somewhere that the oscillation of the solar system lines up with mass extinction events. The premise seemed to be that our proximity to other stars created a sort of gravitational tug-of-war within the Oort Cloud, sending long-period comets our way, some of which find their way to Earth. The research seemed to indicate we were overdue for a collision. Or maybe we just got lucky and dodged a bullet. Can you imagine something the size of Hale-Bopp smashing into us? Not even Billy Bob Thornton or Bruce Willis would be able to stop a beast like that. Anyway, cool stuff. The info was presented in a straight forward way. I did read about a paper that challenges the fast accelerating universe and posits that it is static, that we have been reading the data the wrong way. Wonder what that will do to cosmology if that theory proves to be correct. I guess the Science Channel will have to go back and redo all their gloom-and-doom scenarios about the fate of the universe if that turns out to be the case.
