Interesting how the New York Times is following the Taboola-like structure of clickbaity headlines. Maybe it's where the money is after all.

It was worth the click to get to the article's embedded link to this article about the "Grand Tack" <a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/jupiter-destroyer-of-worlds-may-have-paved-the-way-for-earth/" rel="nofollow">https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/jupiter-destroyer...</a>

I've often wondered: is it possible for a grouping of asteroids to have a highly elliptical orbit and pass Earth's distance to the sun <i>very</i> infrequently, say every X million years?<p>Is it possible that there is some very regular chance that the Earth would get pummelled, but only on extremely long time spans? How would we know or not know?
