👉 Non-cataclysmic is a concept in meteorology that refers to a situation where an asteroid or comet passes close enough to Earth's atmosphere for it to trigger a catastrophic event, such as a volcanic eruption. This condition can occur when a comet approaches the Earth at a sufficient speed and angle relative to the planet's orbit, causing its gravitational pull to be stronger than that of the Earth's, leading to a rapid acceleration and potentially catastrophic consequences. Non-cataclysmic phenomena are rare
