I agree with you. The sky is a hdri map obtained first in a scene by 
Mick Hazelgrove. Somehow, the map results in a blurred sky. THis is 
something I need to look into; such maps may not be the best choices for 
these kind of scenes. Using Mick's original sky code would be better of 
course but would also tremendously increase render times. I have to 
consider, or maybe if somebody has a smart suggestion? ;-)

There are a number of natural catastrophic events which may happen and 
wipe out humanity. Fortunately they are very rare but statistically they 
can happen in a not so foreseeable future :-)
