'One of the largest cosmic catastrophes in the solar system's history' occurred in SWEDEN: Craters reveal twin asteroids slammed into country 458 million years ago
Craters from the double asteroid strike were found in central Sweden 
Event was 'one of the largest cosmic catastrophes' in the solar system 
Spanish team drilled into craters, looking sediment altered by impact
They mapped halo of ejecta - a ring of debris hurled up by the smash
This revealed that craters were created by the same 'doublet' impact 
Nasa says that nearly 15 per cent of all asteroids travel with a partner

I doubt anything will happen.

Stay Cool.

God Bless Everyone,
