The mayian calendar tells us that the world will end someime in late december of 2012.And so far, almost all of the predictions of the mayian calendar have come to pass!

Astronomers have found a giant asteroid destined to swing by Earth so close, that it may enter Earth's orbit, destroying all life on Earth. When is it due? On a Friday the 13 in 2029. Ironic isn't it? And if it misses us, its due back on a Friday the 13 in the year 2036(I think that is the correct year), this time to hit us dead on!

What do you think about these doomsday predictions?

I think you're retarted. Not so much for believing in the Mayan calendar, I can't tell you you're wrong because who knows, maybe it's true! But because of your non-existant knowledge on this asteroid. In 2029 it will have something like a 99.7% chance of missing us. And as far as hitting us again in 2036?

"2004 MN4 circles the Sun, but unlike most asteroids that reside in a belt between Mars and Jupiter, the 323-day orbit of 2004 MN4 lies mostly within the orbit of Earth.

Scientists cannot say that the asteroid will never hit Earth, but there are no serious threats in the foreseeable future. "No subsequent Earth encounters in the 21st century are of any concern," the NASA statement read."

The Mayan calander only says when a new age will begin, not when the world will end. People just misinterpret it, thinking "ZOMG, WORLD = END, WE R DOOMED!". Though, we are long overdue for a mass extinction regardless

I heard about that meteor thing when i was like 11 or 8 or something, when i was younger i was piss scared of the end of the world.
But if it did come close they would just missle it (but not too close that they stupidly let the peices smash into earth)

But now im abit, well MAN MUST ALL DIE ish like...
but still scary though abit..i mean, when all of man kind is gone, there is noone to think, feel , man is merely a blink of an eye in the period of time and space.

but you may call me delusional, i just have a pure feeling the world will end in about 100 years. Whether it be a meteor, the horseman, godzilla or some desease that man made.

do you actually have any stong evidence to support this or did you just get all this off of some stupid conspiracy theory site?

It's weird when you think there being no more man... I was thinking about this today in the shower funny enough. When you think about things like there being nothing after death, you think "Then what is all this for?". If we all died, and there was no more man, and no other known intelligent life in the universe... why is it here? What the hell is there a universe for if it doesn't sustain anything living? It's just a weird question, and I'm not saying this proves anything. It's just something I think about when I think about there being no humankind.

The world is supposed to end in 5 ways:

1) Nuclear War
2) (What you said about the chunk of rock hitting earth)
3) Polarity is supposed to vanish (Without polarity...nothing will work [aprox])
4) Sun gives out and blows up
5) Black Hole

They say the most almost possible way of earth dying is a Black Hole..which is supposed to occur in 2 thousand years. The meteorite is a known fact, but no need to worry; TEAM AERMICA: WORLD POLICE will protect us!. Polarity is only gonna give out some day.....Sun blowing up...not for another million years they say.

the poles have changed back and forth, polarity will not just cease to exist, it is something that exists everywhere.

They actually belive 1 day, it will cease. And when that day comes....
"God Fucked us over big time. "
"No he didn't!"
"Yes he did!"
" How?"
"Turn on your PS3?"
"NOOOOOOOOOOO he fucked us over big time didn't he?"
"Yes..that son of a bitch....."

See how that ended up? thats my theory atleast :\

Some other scientist guy said otherwise

More than likely they saw it on that one movie where they blew up an asteroid

Oh, and if you want all sorts of grand stuff, go to another of the websites I frequent, http://www.badastronomy.com/ . Notable for his grand use of science to destroy the claims of doomsayers, like the one who said we'd be dead a few months back

THIS is what i have to say to any one or thing that says the world is going to end. BRING IT ON!

you see, im not going to cry if i found out the world was going to end ... tonight, i would just do what i would as if it was a normal day.

but why you might ask, well because i cant do any thing to change it so why cry over it.

now if i was ... missile commander to the defence of EARTH from such things, ok then i would be sweating it and trying to find as many ways to take that rock out.

be it using every nuke that is on earth in combonation (sp) with a few laser weapons, even if i could deflect it a bit that might help.

if it came down to it i woud jeteson the kitchen sink into its path to try and stop it if i ran out of ideas or get in a space sute holding a hammer and go nuts on it, any thing that i could do to might give some one else a chance.

but im not a missile commander so ... BRING IT ON! as joe swanson would say from family guy

I think you need a hug....

I think either Superman will save us or we will be reincarnated as slugs to die an ugly slimy death, that or all the computers go poof...

Good for you. Let me know when the care police arrive

Anywho, a missile would not help against a meteor. That would fragment it, causing what was once a single massive impact into several massive impacts. Not a good idea

Yeah, but the fragments might be small enough to disintegrate in the Earth's atmosphere.

Also, the whole 2012 Mayan calendar new age stuff might be humankind hitting it's singularity. That'd be real fun.

1 = Possible
2 = 99,7% is very much so its a chance of 0,3 % of hitting?
3 = Whats polarity?
4 = Thats about quite a many million years ;)
5 = Where you wanna get a black hole from? when the sun explodes theres a black hole but thats (see 4) then..

Well Polarity is well....without it man kind would die out fast...everything we use runs off polarity (magnet attractions and N/S sides aswell as the magnetic field)

There are scientists in Switzerland working on creating a mechanism that would create extremely tiny black holes for less than a nanosecond, so they could study them. I think this is a horrible idea judging on what could happen having a black hole on the earth haha... but the chances of this actually happening are "10 to the minus 40 - a 1 in 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 chance".

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/topic/story.cfm?c_id=325&objectid=10400645

And that meteor, if you read that link i posted earlier, now has a virtually 0 chance of hitting earth. Good to know, right? Still gotta worry about the black hole thing now though.

If somekind of manical terrorist gets that mechanism in its hands and strengthens it !!!! we could be sucked into the nothing :p

A tiny black-hole making machine does not an inevitably appocolypse make

I mean, you'd need a certain sized black hole which is stable enough to actually consume the Earth. Beyond present technological limits at the moment

yeah but the idea of a black hole just is freaky and ah you know they invented these pc's within 20 years ... so what they could do o_O

But its a very advanced construction considering super computers and such,20 years is not much to figure out how to create highly almost realistic graphics.. who knows what comes within the next few years Oo

Realistic graphics are not on the same scale as universe-changing devices

Super-computers may be advanced, but all they do is put to use other things we've designed

Black holes? They're beyond us for the moment. Maybe when we understand more of the universe could we tamper in that domain, but the odds of us doing so are slim. And if we did so, it'd be somewhere where, even if it does go out of control, it isn't going to affect Earth

Cause scientists are smarter than to welcome death and destruction unto the entire world

A PC is not an abberation of space and time

OMFG LOL!!!! I laughed so hard when I saw that. Wtfpwnt Mech xD But regardless, I still think that a blackhole machine can probably be sophisticated enough that only its creator and a handful, maybe not even, of the creators highly trained assistance can use it. Now if you wanted to stop it, you'd have to kill the scientist, his assasins and destroy the machine and all of its plans. It wouldn't be that hard, as long as you get to him before the machine is complete, turned on, ready etc. And this is if the machine even exists... But seriously, how hard can a scientist be to assassinate lol.

What if that machine is just a fake? they could be talking crap and trying to make us paranoid

I am sure that the number one goal of Swedish astrophysicists is to make us paranoid.

....

You are retarded.

You act like you know more than the people who are intelligent enough to create such a machine. They are pretty confident they will be able to create tiny black holes. Just because it's beyond the reach of our minds doesn't mean it can't happen.

Yes it's just the fact that its incredibly unlikely and the fact that even if those idiot Swedes are capable of making a machine, it will probably consume them first, so I'll be happy in eternity knowing those meat-ball-loving-son's-bitches got what was coming to them first. I know a swedish guy. He's alright. A little depressed, very evil, but his Mum does make good meatballs... As long as the Swedish don't destroy the Earth with their retarded science I could really care less.

Sweedz are nice people, if a black hole does happen i hope it sucks your eyes balls out and then maybe your hair...then you'd be a balded head no eye'd freak :DD
