    Zwei Kometen aus der Oortschen Wolke nähern sich der Erde. Sie werden um Halloween am Nachthimmel sichtbar sein. Doch woher kommen diese geheimnisvollen Besucher? Für den menschlichen Verstand mag es schwer vorstellbar sein: eine kosmische Wolke, die so riesig ist, dass sie die Sonne und acht Planeten umgibt und sich über Billionen von Kilometern in den Weltraum erstreckt. Anzeige Die als Oortsche Wolke bekannte kugelförmige Hülle ist praktisch unsichtbar.

    The human mind may find it difficult to conceptualize a cosmic cloud so colossal it surrounds the Sun and eight planets as it extends trillions of miles into deep space. The spherical shell known as the Oort Cloud is, for all practical purposes, invisible. Its constituent particles are spread so thinly and so far from the light of any star, including the Sun, that astronomers simply cannot see the cloud, even though it envelops us like a blanket. It is also theoretical.

Just something worth noting about @Cex and their much-vaunted warranty. It turns out that if your Apple Watch, Apple Ultra, or even Garmin Swimming Watch you buy from them has a fault that then results in it leaking, it is not covered because they say it does not cover liquid
