Today
is 21-12-2012. Happy DoomsDay !!!
In
Sri Lanka,there is a marginal drop of railway commuters and Bus passengers
today 21-12-2012.There are less staff at several private & government offices.
IF you're reading this, it hasn't happened yet. But anytime
today, according to the ancient Mayan prophecy, the world is going to end.
December
21, 2012, won't be the end of the world as we know, however, it will be another
winter solstice.
Contrary to some of
the common beliefs out there, the claims behind the end of the world quickly
unravel when pinned down to the 2012 timeline.
Below, NASA
Scientists answer questions on the following 2012 topics:
Question (Q): Are there any threats to the
Earth in 2012? Many Internet websites say the world will end in December 2012.
Answer (A):The world will not end in 2012. Our planet has been getting
along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists
worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012.
Q: What is the origin of the prediction that
the world will end in 2012?
A: The story started with
claims that Nibiru, a supposed planet discovered by the Sumerians, is headed
toward Earth. This catastrophe was initially predicted for May 2003, but when
nothing happened the doomsday date was moved forward to December 2012 and linked
to the end of one of the cycles in the ancient Mayan calendar at the winter
solstice in 2012 -- hence the predicted doomsday date of December 21, 2012.
Q: Does the Mayan calendar end in December
2012?
A: Just as the calendar
you have on your kitchen wall does not cease to exist after December 31, the
Mayan calendar does not cease to exist on December 21, 2012. This date is the
end of the Mayan long-count period but then -- just as your calendar begins
again on January 1 -- another long-count period begins for the Mayan calendar.
Q: Is NASA predicting a "total
blackout" of Earth on Dec. 23 to Dec. 25?
A: Absolutely not. Neither
NASA nor any other scientific organization is predicting such a blackout. The
false reports on this issue claim that some sort of "alignment of the
Universe" will cause a blackout. There is no such alignment (see next
question). Some versions of this rumor cite an emergency preparedness message
from NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. This is simply a message encouraging
people to be prepared for emergencies, recorded as part of a wider government
preparedness campaign. It never mentions a blackout.
Q: Is the Earth in danger of being hit by a
meteor in 2012?
A: The Earth has always
been subject to impacts by comets and asteroids, although big hits are very
rare. The last big impact was 65 million years ago, and that led to the
extinction of the dinosaurs. Today NASA astronomers are carrying out a survey
called the Spaceguard Survey to find any large near-Earth asteroids long before
they hit. We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as
large as the one that killed the dinosaurs. All this work is done openly with
the discoveries posted every day on the NASA Near-Earth Object Program
Office website, so you can see for yourself that nothing is
predicted to hit in 2012.
Q: How do NASA scientists feel about claims of
the world ending in 2012?
A: For any claims of
disaster or dramatic changes in 2012, where is the science? Where is the
evidence? There is none, and for all the fictional assertions, whether they are
made in books, movies, documentaries or over the Internet, we cannot change that
simple fact. There is no credible evidence for any of the assertions made in
support of unusual events taking place in December 2012.
Q: Is there a danger from giant solar storms
predicted for 2012?
A: Solar activity has a
regular cycle, with peaks approximately every 11 years. Near these activity
peaks, solar flares can cause some interruption of satellite communications,
although engineers are learning how to build electronics that are protected
against most solar storms. But there is no special risk associated with 2012.
The next solar maximum will occur in the 2012-2014 time frame and is predicted
to be an average solar cycle, no different than previous cycles throughout
history.
