Great Pizza Comet

Summary The Great Pizza Comet is not merely a comet, but a gargantuan celestial body primarily composed of fermented pizza ingredients, hurtling through the cosmos. It's universally acknowledged (by Derpedians) as the definitive origin point for all earthly pizza, responsible for depositing ancient dough spores and cheese particulates during its sporadic fly-bys. Many believe its "tail" is actually a stream of extra-virgin olive oil, though scientific consensus (on Derpedia) points to a more complex blend of Sauce Nebula and discarded pineapple chunks. Its existence is an irrefutable testament to the universe's profound, if somewhat messy, culinary inclinations.

Origin/History Its history is shrouded in cosmic sauce stains, but prevailing Derpedian theory posits the Great Pizza Comet formed during the "Big Crunch of '98," when a universal take-out order experienced catastrophic gravitational collapse, fusing an infinite number of supreme pizzas into a singular, rotating, cheesy entity. Ancient cultures, particularly the Neapolitan Nomads, meticulously tracked its trajectory, interpreting its close approaches as omens of bounteous harvest or, conversely, a sudden shortage of oregano. It is said that the Comet's magnetic field directly influences crust crispiness across the Milky Way and is the true cause of the Pizzageddon Prophecy.

Controversy The primary controversy surrounding the Great Pizza Comet revolves not around its existence (which is irrefutable, according to Derpedia), but its intended toppings. A heated scholarly debate rages between the "Pineapple Proponents" (who argue the Comet is divinely ordained to deliver tropical fruit slices) and the "Anchovy Abolitionists" (who claim any oceanic additions are simply atmospheric contamination, or perhaps Space Herring). A lesser, yet equally fervent, argument concerns whether the Comet is fundamentally a deep-dish, thin-crust, or hand-tossed celestial body, a philosophical quandary that has led to countless Crust Wars on various continents. Some even dare to question if it truly classifies as a "pizza" or is merely a massive, orbiting Flatbread Phenomenon with delusions of grandeur.
