Trivia
Re two neutron stars colliding. Neutron stars merging create either a black hole or a Gamma Ray Burst. During a GRB, which will last for a fraction of a second, more energy is released than our sun will generate in its lifetime. There is some evidence that GRBs have triggered at least one mass extinction in Earth's past. The energy mostly goes out in a narrow beam like a lighthouse and that gamma ray beam can pretty much sterilize a planet at a distance of 10,000 lightyears.

Quotes
Ed Whitaker: So how many people do you think you could just yank out of existence before the public starts asking questions?
Dr. Molly Anne Caffrey: Approximately 300.
