The Oort Cloud

We'll be starting a new piece of writing soon, about the Oort Cloud. If, like me, you had never heard of the Oort Cloud before, here's a short video about it.



It's a cluster of billions of asteroids, far out in our solar system. Some theories suggest that the Earth will one day collide with some of these asteroids, causing immense devastation. Let's hope it doesn't come soon!

Here's a link to some other videos about the solar system and our universe that I put on the blog last year.
