[00:00:00]A dead star in our galaxy could fry Earth tonight. Here's what would happen and how close it already came. A magnetar, a neutron star with a magnetic field a quadrillion times Earth's, the size of Manhattan. If one quakes close enough, our ozone strips, satellites die, power grid stop, [music] all in 0.2 seconds. In 2004, one quaked 50,000 light years away, it still compressed our atmosphere. It hit us once. Next time, we won't know before it does.
