In most science TV shows on this topic they\u2019re heavy on the death and destruction, but pretty light on what we can actually do about them. But if you\u2019ve read my book Death from the Skies! you know I\u2019m all about getting off our collective butts and doing something. So in &#8220;Bad Universe&#8221; we go step-by-step, looking into what can be done to keep an impact from ruining our whole day.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.discovermagazine.com\/badastronomy\/2010\/08\/24\/bad-universe-sneak-peek\/\">[[[MORE]]]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>n case you haven\u2019t heard \u2014 and c\u2019mon, do you live in some underground cavern with Morlocks and C.H.U.D.S.? \u2014 my new TV show &#8220;Phil Plait\u2019s Bad Universe&#8221; premieres this Sunday night August 29, at 10:00 p.m. on the Discovery &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/2010\/08\/24\/bad-universe-sneak-peek\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","WB4WB4WP_MODE":"","WB4WP_PAGE_SCRIPTS":"","WB4WP_PAGE_STYLES":"","WB4WP_PAGE_FONTS":"","WB4WP_PAGE_HEADER":"","WB4WP_PAGE_FOOTER":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1356"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1359,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1356\/revisions\/1359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oddempire.com\/weblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
