One of the worst ways to die is if you are an astronaut in space station near earth. Just to see you planet get taken away to some other place. You are basically screwed in that space station. That got to be one of the most slow depressing and one of the most saddest way to die.
Astrologists or astronomers? Astrology is stuff like fortune telling based on the stars, whereas astronomy is the study of space. (oversimplified and a bit incorrect, but you get the point.)
