Last Sunset of Santerrium

by

The planet looks perfectly normal from this distance: a hazy swirl of cloud-cover, giant patches of ocean and jagged outcrops of land. “In twenty minutes,” the Doctor says, “All the leaders of  Santerrium come together and press a single button, triggering the self destruct of the planet. It causes one of the most beautiful meteor showers in all of recorded history. The planets of the nearest solar system have lights in their night skies for a month. Eighty-four different species have festivals based around it, and not one of them ever find out they’re celebrating the falling dust of a suicidal civilisation, because there are no survivors.”
