I'm new around here so idk if this has been discussed but...?

Question

Anyone have any knowledge on December 21st, 2012? With the whole planet x/nibiru thing? The so called doomsday date? I've been researching this a lot, and i still don't know what to make of it. 54 cultures predicted something like the end would happen, but it could be confusion with the mayan calendar which doesnt actually end, but starts a new "age"

thoughts????

Answer 1

There is no rouge planet on a 3600 year orbit in space planning to cause mass destuction to our planet if this was true the planet would be visible by now even to amateur astronomers. This is a pure hoax.

Yes the mayan calander ends,but,doesnt yours end on dec.31,does this mean its the end of the world?...NO!

As far as the 100 other hoaxs pertaining to 2012 nearly all are false..We cannot always predict exactly what is going to happen.However some of these ignorant predictions could happen today and always have been a threat although the proability is very low...So in closing just relax and ignore all the fearmongers spewing this garbage to scare a whole new generation.

Note:some people doesnt believe that the mayan calander even ends just that it resets and the mayans considered this an age of enlightment when the present cycle ends and we enter the new one age of aquarius.

Answer 2

As you type in your questions, a little box comes up underneath the text entry box, that says whether similar questions have already been asked by others. All you need to do is click on one of them, and you can see how the question has been answered in the past. Questions about 2012, Planet X, Nibiru, and the lunar landing "hoax", are asked about eight times a day each in here, and are really starting to tick people off. I thought you might like to be forewarned.

Answer 3

first off, welcome to yahoo answers! and yes, this question is on here all the time. i have answered the same one over 50 times so now i have a copy and paste answer. hope you don't mind :)

the world is not going to end in 2012. There is no scientific proof, or evidence for that matter. People think that the world is going to end because that’s when the mayan calendar ends. If this is why the world is going to end then we might as well say that the world is going to end on December 31 2009 because no calendars have been printed for 2010 yet. Its an absurd idea that has been shamelessly endorsed by yahoo, google, the news media, and even the history channel.

that’s the short answer. Here’s the long one:

There are a couple theories on how the world will supposedly end in 2012. I will give you examples, and shoot the ideas down for you.

The most popular idea is that planet x, is going to come to the earth and block the sunlight. First of all, it is not “the planet x” it’s “a planet x”. planet x is a generalized term that caught on a couple hundred years ago that was used to describe unknown planets of our solar system. Neptune was once a planet x. astronomers calculated that the orbital period of Uranus was affected by another object, probably a planet, that was beyond Uranus. They calculated the orbital period of this planet x, and found where it would be at a specific time. They saw the planet, and it was no longer considered planet x. it got its name- Neptune. Scientists miscalculated the orbital period of Neptune being affected by another planet, but by chance their miscalculations revealed Pluto. This icy world was also considered planet x, and was first seen in 1930. It was considered a planet until 2006 when it was demoted to a dwarf planet, and now a plutoid. Sedna, quaour, eris, and ceris were all considered planet x’s, and were eventually classified as plutoids.

Now that you know the true definition of a planet x, lets talk about the scientific improbabilities of a planet x that is going to travel all the way to the earth. First of all, I have gone to college, and received a PhD in astronomy and astrophysics and I have never heard of nibiru. According to recent data, there may be another planet larger than earth lying in the kupiter belt. to get to earth it would have to get through the beatings of countless asteroids, and the gravitational pull of the four gas giants of the outer solar system - Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter. I wouldn’t be surprised if it became a moon of one of those planets on its way. Anyway, if it did get through the gas giants, it has to get through another asteroid belt, as well as mars. It will most likely be shot into outer space, or into the sun where it will burn up. If it did manage, by some miracle, to get in front of the earth, it would be in a different gravitational shell. It would be closer, which means it will orbit the sun faster than the earth, therefore it will move away from us. So that’s not going to happen.

Another theory is about the asteroid. Its going to hit earth or whatever. Here’s why it won’t work: the asteroid has to take the same path to get to the earth as planet x, but it is even smaller, and will take more of a beating. If it got through everything, it would just crash into our moon probably. If it did come to earth, the atmosphere would burn it up so much that there would probably be nothing left for it to hit earth.

All other theories are just as absurd. Nothing is going to happen in 2012, except for the same things that could happen any other year.

Answer 4

look, the last rumour i heard said that the world will end in 2001 and yet, as far as i can tell, we're still here, nothing changed, there wasn't any big bang or something

i think it's all just bullshit that some people make up cuz, i don khow, they have too much free time and nothing to do or something like that

an plz god don tell me you actually spend time reasearching this ------ oh god ------- (nothing personal but) get a life!!!!!!

Answer 5

Welcome to this community, Digy. Perhaps this is not the right place to ask the question because it is more related to beliefs and that sort of stuff. The Astronomy & Space section is more about scientific facts.

I don't know your age but I am probably old enough to be your grand-father (I am 60). I find it very sad that the younger generation show so much pessimism when it comes to the future. I hope I will live to see the year 2012 and many after that. I can guarantee you that nothing bad will happen. A Mayan calander cannot influence our life. What can is us: our vision of the future. If we are not motivated to be part of it, things can go awfully wrong.

Please, do me a favour: Ignore all the conspiracy theories and doomdays propheties on the internet. Live a good life and just relax: the solution to everything is within us. Have faith in mankind, my friend! Thank you.

Answer 6

hi,

i think the others are telling you the truth. it is amazing how much they know. i don't think we can control such things anyway. we can't even control volcanos, hurricanes,...,  so there is probably no need to worry about such things. seems like their is such order to our solar system, it is running it's course. at funerals of my friends i learned how important i was to them, i hope you learn sooner than i did!

Answer 7

this is only asked about 100 times a day. it doesn't change the fact that it's nothing more than a cruel and cynical hoax. you should know better.

Answer 8

IT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED A MILLION BILLION TIMES and im really tired of answering. i really think there's someone out there asking this question not for the answer, but just to see it p**s people off. no we will not die
