> Can only imagine what a hit from something further than the Oort Cloud is. Such a hit is extremely unlikely, extremely being a severe understatement. Imagine a solar system as a target, the size of a Mars orbit. If a fast-flying object from outer space manages to hit that target, its probability to hit earth is... 0,000000078% If such objects will enter our Solar system every year, I'd say we're likely safe for the next few billion years. Sun turning into reg giant is a much more urgent issue.
