Is it true the world is going to end at 1200hrs tomorrow the 12th of the 12th of the 12th?:shock:

Love the 21st of December one, anyone with a half ounce of knowledge will know its fake.

 

First up myth

 

The planets all align on the 21st of December.

 

Actually any planisphere will show the planets will not align on the 21st of December, must to the disappointment of the astronomical community, as getting a picture of the planets aligning would be an awesome event.

 

Second myth

 

The earth is passing through the galactic plain

 

This is also a myth, we are currently a good 21k light years above the galactic plane (or below it depending how you want to rotate the galaxy)

 

The third myth

 

The Mayan calendar runs out.

 

Actually it doesnt, Mayans built calendars in 400 year cycles, the calender in question actually carries on way past its supposed "end" date.

 

Also, the Mayan calendar didn't account for leap years, so the earth actually ended back in October.

The end is nigh..... (for this chocolate orange that i was only going to have one segment of...!)
