A real life Nyarlathotep

I came across this artcile.
http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science/co ... fire_x.htm
The Summary: There's a giant fire ball hurling across the universe at 1.8 million miles an hour. It's 3 million LIGHT YEARS across in size. A single light year is 5.9 trillion miles, so if we do the math thats 3,000,000 x 5,900,000,000,000 or 17,700,000,000,000 normal miles across.
What happens when this thing explodes eventually? It's Gods self-destruct system! It's Nyarlathoteps real life counter part!
My mind is blown, really, if I wasn't so bad at math I would have prefered to go into Astrophysics or astronomy. Space is amazing, and honestly, we shouldn't be worrying about astroids hitting the earth when there's a behemoth like this thing running around the universe. There's really only one thing that can even slightly live up to this giant:
"I am become death, the shatterer of worlds;
Waiting that hour that ripens to their doom."
-Bhagavad Gita
