How about the moon? Is the moon in danger? It would be entertaining and scientifically productive to have a fresh crater on the moon and a shower of tektites to astonish people who are outdoors looking for UFOs anyway.

Look at the moon. Those craters - the ol’ dude took those hits for us, man...

One of the requirements that cosmologists have discovered/derived for intelligent life to exist in a solar system are “shields” to keep the life supporting planet from getting hit so much. We have our gas giants, and our moon.

That would screw up tidal marsh fishing schedules.
