It's on the news. It's in the movies. Something is posted about it on almost EVERY website. But none of us know if it is really going to happen or not. Yes...the famous, "The world is going to end in 2012!!!" Yea...no. on Discovery Science, you can read a Top 10 list, telling you ten reasons why the earth will not end in 2012. The writer of this certain story listed the top ten stories told about how the world will end in 2012 and then told us what experts are saying. The top ten reasons with what the experts are saying are as followed:
10. Changes in the Sun's magnetic field will lead to powerful flares. This is were the sun will heat up so much that it reaches it's peak temperature. This is supposedly an 11-year cycle and this time, it is supposed to be hotter than ever and blowtorch the earth.
-This may sound scary, but the sun isn't gonna randomly get hot and scorch the earth into nothing.The largest flare recorded was in November in 2003. And, yea! We are still here!
9. The Earth's magnetic field will reverse.
- No! The last one on these babies happened over 800,00 years ago! Obviously, the cavemen survived!
8. The Earth's rotation axis will tip.
-The experts are saying, no way! The Earth is too heavy. Something around the size of Mars would have to hit the Earth for the Earth's axis to tip.
7. An alignment of Jupiter and Saturn will use gravity and perturb Earth.
- The scientists are saying, no way no how can Jupiter can pull the earth 400 Million miles away from it's original spot.
6. The Sun will align with the galactic equator on the winter solstice.
-So...? There is no big deal if the Sun does this, it is not going to change anything.
5. The black hole in the galactic center will affect us.
- The Milky Way black hole is not going to affect the galactic disk of which we live people!
4. An asteroid will smash into the Earth.
-(Haven't heard that before!) To tell you the truth, an asteroid could come hit us tomorrow. There is no planning these things on a certain date.
3. The rogue planet Nibiru will swing by Earth.
- That is not a real planet, therefore, it can't hit Earth!
2. Supernovae of hypernovae will irradiate Earth.
- There are no stars close enough to the Earth to affect us.
1. A cloud of negative energy engulfs the solar system.
- Experts say this sounds like Star Trek. So No! Nothing is going to happen!
What I think:
Personally, I think that all of us dying in 2012 is a crud! Nothing is going to happen to us and if it does, there is nothing much we can do about it. All of these stories that are made up about 2012 are by people who have nothing better to do or by people who think they know everything. Whether you believe in the disaster of 2012 or not, just go with the flow of life!
