One month ago, videos were posted to YouTube claiming that Dr. Neil

Earth with catastrophic results.

I found this out after YouTube suggested a recent repost of that video
to me. But my search did not turn up anything about what he _really_
said, just this clickbait nonsense.

If they're going to invent this silliness, at least they could choose
a star that plausibly would represent some risk to Earth if it
"exploded".
