A strange little side quest
Put Meteorite Destroyer next to the history of space and a few unexpected connections appear. Our solar system formed about 4.6 billion years ago from a cloud of gas and dust collapsing under gravity. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: The word 'checkmate' is linked to the Persian expression 'shah mat', used when the king was trapped. So a round of Meteorite Destroyer is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer space timeline.
