Can it happen before the end of this year? Sooner the better

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I can't agree.

A GRB would make every mass extinction event the planet has endured, including the one it is going through now, look like nothing. The asteroid that took out the dinosaurs is a firecracker to an atomic bomb that is a GRB level of destruction.

It is one of the few events that can completely destroy all life on the planet.

I am sorry that things are not going well for you but a GRB is not the answer.
