Synopsis/Details

Two young aliens practice their marksmanship on Earth's solar system. While the first alien's quantum torpedo misses entirely, the second's does much damage: Destroying Mercury, obliterating half of Venus, and sending the Earth into a new, faraway orbit.

Their starcraft's onboard computer congratulates the second alien. It awards him 1000 ingenuity points for causing the eventual freezing deaths of Earth's nine billion inhabitants.

The aliens leave the newly rearranged solar system without a care.
