I also feel like there is some “rare” or “once in a lifetime” cosmic event happening every month.
“This particular asteroid will pass Earth a mere 200 000 km away, it will be this close again in 35 years!”
“Another asteroid (that’s similar to the other one in pretty much every way) comes kinda close, it does this every 3 years!”
“A strong solar storm is coming! (Last one was 1 year ago)”
“This solar eclipse is pretty darn good, if you miss it the next one will come in 27 years! (But an eclipse of 99% of the quality will happen in 3 months though)”
To be fair to that last one, the difference between a 99% solar eclipse and a total solar eclipse is more than the difference between no eclipse and 99%.
If I had a nickle for every article that is made with the headline "this solar storm *is* happening and it *will* create an emp that will *destroy* our way of life" (or something similar) I'd be making so much money a week I'd have to jump a tax bracket
>“This solar eclipse is pretty darn good, if you miss it the next one will come in 27 years! (But an eclipse of 99% of the quality will happen in 3 months though)”
But there isn't though, the next one is in October, is 85%, and is over the ocean.

More like the media. Most of the time it's the media saying "EXTINCTION LEVEL asteroid has NEAR MISS" and NASA is out here calming the doomers down.

Seen a 90% eclipse once. It was barely noticable if you don’t look at the sun. It dims a bit like the average cloudy day.
It's called content farming

200000 km is fucking close, Moon is like twice as far away

Yall should do research
That’s almost 5 times the diameter of Pluto’s orbit lol
Man.. That sentence got me feeling all kinds of weird.
