Professor Brian O'Shea describes his lecture: "Who hasn't had a day where they feel that the Universe is out to get them? Well, it turns out that it's true. In this talk, I will describe the myriad ways that the universe is out to destroy the Earth (or at the very least, every living thing on the Earth). This includes rogue black holes, supernovae, massive asteroids, and more! I'll explain what these objects are, how we are trying to detect them, and what if anything can be done if we DO detect one coming right for us. Bad science fiction movie-related jokes will abound."
