In what surely isn’t a sign of the impending apocalypse, a giant as-yet-unidentified organic mass is floating past Alaska this week, heading for warmer waters and possibly looking for retribution.
According to the North Slope Borough’s Planning and Community Services Department, the mass is “thick, and dark and gooey,” with hairy strands running throughout, and feeds on six-pack holders and sea lions.
Screw global warming. You want some planetary catastrophe? How about this new study released that estimates a 1% chance that Jupiter’s gravity will alter the orbit of Mercury to the point that it causes the collapse of the entire inner solar system.
Did I mention that this process is supposed to take place over the next 5 billion years? Hmm, suppose I forgot that part. That’s around the same timeframe that it will take for the sun to balloon into a red giant, snuffing out this part of the solar system anyway.
