Space travelers beware! When your fancy spacecraft zooms at 90% the speed of light and hits a teeny-tiny speck of dust, physics throws the ultimate tantrum! 💥 The kinetic energy in that collision would make nuclear bombs look like party poppers!
It's like trying to stop a freight train with a paper towel, except the paper towel explodes with enough energy to vaporize a small country! This is why interstellar travel keeps physicists up at night - we're not just worried about aliens, but also the cosmic equivalent of hitting a pothole at 600 million mph! Space dust: the universe's deadliest confetti!
