"Bart's Comet" is the fourteenth episode of The Simpsons' sixth season.

Plot

After vandalizing the school's new weather balloon, Bart is punished by having to help Skinner while he goes sky watching. However, he spots the balloon and leaves briefly to try and catch it. Bart messes with the telescope, finds a comet and reports it. His discovery makes the papers and he becomes famous among the nerds at school. However, Lisa is the first to realize that the comet is heading for Earth, and is going to decimate the town. Springfield officials launch a rocket to stop it, but it misses and blows up the only bridge out of town, leaving the townsfolk doomed. They all decide to go to a bomb shelter, one that belongs to Ned Flanders. The bomb shelter is too cramped, so the inhabitants decide to evict Ned from his own shelter. To pass the time they play a guessing game, but this makes them argue. Tired of being cramped, the whole group of people abandon the shelter and join Ned Flanders outside, waiting for the comet to strike. The comet burns up in Springfield's toxic atmosphere and shrinks to the size of a Chihuahua's head, then it hits the shelter causing it to collapse. Bart puts the remains of his comet into his pocket.
