I'm writing a paper about astronomical catastrophes, and needless to say Death from the Skies would've been a great asset in my writing. However, I haven't been able to get my hand on a copy yet (I'm in Sweden).
I did see, though, a chart of some (seven or eight-ish) different phenomena that could very well kill us (gamma ray bursts, meteor impacts, all that stuff) and their respective probabilities of actually happening. It was an image file, and I think it was on either BadAstronomy or Universe Today, but now I can't find it.
If any of you know the link, or copy it straight out of the book - or whatever, I'd be very full of grates.
