The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has found evidence of two giant asteroids slamming into each other in a nearby star system. The colossal collision ejected 100,000 times more dust than the impact that killed the dinosaurs.
The violent impact occurred recently in Beta Pictoris, a star system located 63 light-years away in the constellation Pictoris.

Don't tell the Democrats because they point to the root cause of this as Climate Change.
