Sounds interesting.

I've always loved the sky, night sky included.

Seeing this if it's visable from my location will mean I've seen two massive balls of ice and rock fly overhead in my lifetime.

For a lot of stuff a decent set of binoculars are fantastic, and also a great starting point. Especially if you have easy access to places with not much light pollution. You'll be able to see planets (the gas giants are always favourites), galaxies, nebula, some binary systems, albeit fuzzy, small, greyish images. But quite frankly amazing, and I'd personally say life changing, to see "first hand" so to speak. Then move up to telescopes if you enjoy it. But expect a learning curve, and don't expect too much unless you're going massive( and really don't for a first go, go most money you can justify on a small one), you'll see stuff in much greater detail and bigger, but still fuzzy, small, greyish images.

And unfortunately, you haven't got a chance of seeing stuff like this really until it get really close.

Don't worry if it poses any problems for Earth I'll just call the Space Cop's who will blow it up with their Space Lazer which is located on the United Space Federation's Space Station which is located in Space.

I'm sure we'll be safe, it's been 65 million years since the last major astrological problem. Statistically, I think we're in a good place.

It's been 65 million years... you know what they say... Calm before the storm

and everything goes in circles, cycles. if we've gone so long without anything major going on, expect something of epic proportions.
