Suppose a major impact that produces a mass extinction takes place on earth once every 5 million years. suppose further that if such an event occurred today, you and most other humans would be killed (this would be true even if the human species as a whole survived). such impact events are random, and one could take place at any time. calculate the probability that such an impact will occur within the next 50 years (within your lifetime).
