Re: 2012
Well there are things that will happen on December 21st 2012 that happen once in 26 thousand years.
Galactic alignment of the center of the milky way , with the center of the sun and also with earth. At the same time the earth will complete one wobble. Thats the only celestial things that will happen.
The main reason that Mayan calender is important is that they are very accurate - more accurate that today’s atomic clocks. That alone should tell us that they were kidding around.
Just last year the atomic clocks had to be adjusted 1 second. Mayan calendar and time is off by 26 seconds in thousands of years..and they didnt have anything electronic or mechanical.
Polar shift, Solar flares, weakness in magnetic field around the earth and the possibility of solar flares at the same time can wreak havoc.
If there is a physical polar shift the earth masses will have to reconfigure themselves.
At the equator the earth is about 42 Kms more than the diameter at the poles. Hence the polar shift can cause rifts.
SO far its a mystery to the scientists how the Mayans could calculate a wobble of the earth not to mention all the other accuracies in their calendar, I wouldn’t just throw this theory and the dangers 2012 can carry just yet.
