Secondly, I am guessing that the diameter of the meteor ( a 2 dimensional definition) would pale in comparison to the mass + velocity of the galactic projectile, and the associated impact of that event --- 2 milion times the energy created by the largest man-made explosion sounds substantial to me...

A meteor estimated to be about the size of a house is believed to have caused this:

lots of photos exist of the forest that were brushed down like grass.
This one was a real slow poke relative to the earth's trajectory, nevertheless the shock waves and heat were devastating. Increase the speed of impact by an order of magnitude and you have something unimaginably horrible.... nothing really ever changes my friend, new lines for old, new lines for old.

Biggest current threat out there. Looks like we have 800 years to figure out what we're going to do.

Get myself cryogenically frozen, hang out with Ted Williams for about 870 years, then come back to go out with the big bang!
