He breaks down how comets fragment and disintegrate across their life cycle, pointing to Shoemaker-Levy 9 as a clear example: one nucleus torn into 21 separate pieces by Jupiter's gravity. That event alone shows how dynamic and unstable these objects really are. He's identified five distinct stages comets pass through, a framework he's developed to understand their broader role in Earth's history. This isn't just about astronomy. It connects directly to planetary impacts, the history of life, and ultimately the rise and fall of human civilizations. The comet life cycle becomes a lens for understanding catastrophic change across deep time.
