What a screwed up reporting:

- 8,000 years, now changed to light years.

- It could happen soon or 1/2 million years from now.

- There is debate if gamma rays would even hit earth.

I don’t think we will pack up our space ship with the family to evacuate just yet.

Revive the Shuttle and we can still get there.

yes...and the inclination of rotation would HAVE to be zero in order for the burst to hit earth. Can they even measure the inclination that accurately at 8000 LYs?
