End of World 2012

Student Research Center
End of World: 2012

  • In 1997 a cult of people committed suicide because they thought a spaceship of aliens were coming
  • Calamity- A great misfortune or disaster
  • The cycles of the Mayan calender are as normal as the sun rising and setting
  • Earth's orbit makes the sun pass in front of the galactic plain, The Milky Way, twice a year, every June and December
  • This year the sun crosses the galactic plain on December 21, this is supposedly the day is supposed to end
  • Some websites claim that the sun passes right in front of the Galaxy's center, but that never happens because our planet is not tilted that way
  • Ihabitants- People who inhabit a place (make it their own), especially if it is permanent

Is this more of a scientific issue or a religious belief?

  1. It seems to be more of a scientific issue because religious beliefs are based on what people think and everyone has their own idea on religions etc. It makes sense to be more of a scientific issue because there is one answer and your would be whether the world is going to end or not.
