Maybe a nice, big Gamma blast is headed our way? It's speculated that it has happened to Earth before, and wiped out %90 of life on land and in the sea. Mankind better start getting serious about reducing the single-point-of-failure issue when it comes to our survival. We *have* to get off this rock and start moving up on the Kardashev scale. Especially if we are concerned about survival as a species. Not sure we deserve it but....Deserves got nothing to do with it.

In the history of humanity we've only just invented electricity basically yesterday. None of us are leaving any time soon.
