Anyone want to do the math and see where it is now, then go check and see if FD has it in the map? 
New research indicates that 70,000 years ago a dim star passed within a mere 8 trillion kilometers (5 trillion miles) of our solar system.
The funny part of the article is that it has an illustration that looks like a screenie from ED. Except not as good.
The astronomy theory that I like is that every so often systems collide and knock black holes out of their trajectory. So these "rogue" black holes just wander around and eventually find a gravity well bigger then theirs and then blammo. Just think, it wouldn't take a very large rogue black hole to ruin your whole week!
