It's got lots of different ways to destroy the planet.
And a link to the International Earth-Destruction Advisory Board, a
website devoted to letting you know whether or not the earth has
actually been destroyed.
As they say:
As scientists we feel that impartiality is important to maintain the
integrity and reliability of our data. As such we have no official
opinions on whether the destruction of Earth would be a good thing or
a bad thing.
We would, however, ask that anybody intending to destroy or attempt to
destroy the Earth notify us at least three weeks in advance of the
projected date of Earth-destruction, so that the EDA Level and CGC can
be kept as accurate as possible.
I've heard of scientific detachment, but .... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?
it also includes a section of how you cqan tell for yourself whether the
Earth has been destroyed:
Can I help the IEDAB with its observations?
Of course! Our coverage isn't perfect and you can easily help. You can
check for yourself whether the Earth still exists or not simply by
taking a good look at the Moon. If it appears to be more distant than
usual, or has vanished completely, then it has probably broken orbit
and zoomed off into space - something which can only happen if the
Earth's gravitational field (and by extension, the Earth itself)
disappears.
Of course, if the Earth's gravitational field is gone you, personally,
would have much more important things to worry about than the relative
position of the Moon....
