  That is a fascinating question and to be honest I don’t really know! I would guess that the impact would be so great that we wouldn’t be around very long afterwards if at all to witness the effect!

  We might be able to see the most amazing shooting stars show of the history, or maybe the radiation and energy released would kill us so quickly that we won’t have the chance to even spot a single shooting star!
