Once knowing their mass and distance, it's a simple matter of running those numbers.

Between Krakatoa and Yellowstone, if those two geothermal mega vents manage to blow their gasket at the same time is when we’re in deep trouble with that Warhol “lake of fire”, or perhaps there will be two lakes of fire. But at least we can forget about whatever cosmic fireballs and asteroid encounters for a while, because even that of a 10 km asteroid of mostly iron and thorium isn’t going to be all that significant unless it’s a highly suicidal retrograde impact, or something as big as another icy Selene (<8.5e22 kg).

Between Krakatoa and Yellowstone, if those two geothermal mega vents manage to blow their gasket at roughly the same time (either one of those could trigger the other, as well as causing multiple other secondary trauma) is when we’re in deep trouble with that Warhol “lake of fire”, or perhaps there will become two lakes of fire. But at least we can forget about whatever cosmic fireballs and asteroid encounters for a while, because even that of a 10 km asteroid of mostly iron and thorium isn’t going to be all that significant unless it’s a highly suicidal retrograde impact, or something as big as another icy Selene (<8.5e22 kg).
Guess my tired old idea of relocating our Selene/moon out to Earth L1 is another one of those too little too late sort of things. Sorry about that. Of course there's always obfuscation and mainstream denial that's so much easier to deal with, and a whole lot cheaper. And, lets not waste any talent or resources on understanding the implications of what closing in on the Sirius Star/solar system might represent.
Although, try to imagine what it was like when Sirius-B was in her prime.

Mainstream physics and science is not to be lightly discounted or otherwise discarded. However, some items of our solar system seem to have been added after the original formations of our sun and a few planets, while others seem badly skewed because of nearby external forces. It seems +/- 1 degree might be an acceptable standard for being part of the original protoplanetary elliptic plane. However, the more degrees off that plane, the more unlikely they existed from the very start of our solar system.
Like those icy Pluto planetoids and Sedna at near 12 degrees most certainly are not in the same plane. However, supposedly there are a few interesting Kuiper and Oort retrograde orbits, although Sedna isn't one of those. Noteworthy is that Cruithne has been a nearby second moon of Earth, however oddly so and otherwise at nearly 20 degrees inclination is also not within the expected orbital plane, just like our Selene/moon at 5+ degrees isn’t exactly flying within the expected plane of our solar system.
Besides the usual orbital mechanics that can’t quite explain items like Sedna with such minimal velocity and low density, as to why the hell does Sedna bother to turn itself around and head way the hell back out there? (are the Sedna electrons helping to repel it away from those of our solar system electron outflux?)
With Sedna we're talking of an extremely deep elliptical trek of 76 AU out to 976 AU and obviously back again, at an average orbital velocity of 1.04 km/sec (about the same as our Selene/moon), with an overall duration of <12,060 years (also given as >10,000 years by some), as supposedly offering the 0.84 eccentric orbit in relationship
