Makes me wonder how large the "cone" of such a burst can get and how often GRBs happen in absolute terms if this tiny target gets hit twice in only a couple of million years. Anyone an expert on this?
Also, I'll never sleep again.

Yes, my thoughts exactly - that would never happen, right? Right?
I am scared and glad that this was really really far away.
A time lapse of the history of the universe:
Very minimalistic, but I like the sound and visuals. Just try to tune in and enjoy an existential crisis at the end!
