Beautiful
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever!

One of the more gorgeous APODs in recent months.
It's horrifying to me how jaded I am to those.

I often think it is a shame we are not much nearer a gaseous nebula.
It would make the night sky far more interesting!

I think my wife might disagree with that...

Would it not also increase our chances of being bombarded with harmful radiation, and potentially wiped out of existence?

There is that risk.
Fortunately we live on a planet that has never been hit by a bolide or subjected to massive doses of radiation.
(Well, except for all the bolides that have hit us and the GRB that hit us in the 8th Century).
Sod the risks, we would be in a far better position to see the great stuff out there, and in a more densely populated region we could have neighbours!

Thinking of the problems we already have with France, do we really want more neighbours?

Why would we want neighbours? We have Bob...

Not to rain on your parade, but I disagree. We would be sacrificing a wealth of detail about numerous faint objects for the sake of a local phenomenon. Those objects would no longer be visible due to interference from the local dust.

So, we'd have to invent a seriously large dyson?

Take half a dozen cardamom pods and drop them in your mortar. Use the pestle to split them open and then remove the shells.
Now use the pestle to grind up the seeds nice and small, and mix it with you coffee grind. You'll find you've got a great little brew there...

Cardamom! That should be a real 'awakening' cup of coffee...

The normal brew for the Missus's lot. Add sugar before heating if required (most people take it sweet), to preserve the foamy head.

I love it when I can get it. At home I have espresso, but occasionally add cardamom for that extra fun!

Way to wreck a nice cup of coffee.

It really isn't.
