As we hear about the year 2012 supposedly being the beginning of the End of the World or ‘Doomsday’. You can read out everywhere online and will find people talking about in all the time in the bars, family gathering, Twitter, Facebook and all. Even an upcoming Hollywood movie 2012 is based on 2012 : End of the World. But what is TRUE?
Is 2012 going to bring the world to an end? Or is it just another ‘end of the world’ hoax like the Y2K scare?
To understand about it precisely I have found two sources that can answer some of your questions.
Fear about the year 2012 rest on just one of at least three Maya calendar systems unearthed by scholars, the “Long Count,” which began on Aug. 13, 3114 B.C. The Long Count tracks the duration of what the Maya called “great cycles” of time. The cycle we’re currently in ends on 13.0.0.0.0, what we non-Maya call Dec. 23, 2012.

USA Today shares a very good image to understand how to read Mayan calendar. You can understand more about it from the link above. Below is an excerpt from NASA website explaining 2012 : End of the world theory and answers some of the relevant questions.
Similar to the Y2K scare which came and went without much of a whimper because of adequate planning and analysis of the situation. Impressive movie special effects aside, Dec. 21, 2012, won’t be the end of the world as we know.
Much like Y2K, 2012 has been analyzed and the science of the end of the Earth thoroughly studied. Contrary to some of the common beliefs out there, the science behind the end of the world quickly unravels when pinned down to the 2012 timeline. Below, NASA Scientists answer several questions that are frequently asked regarding 2012:
- Q: Are there any threats to the Earth in 2012? Many Internet websites say the world will end in December 2012.
A: Nothing bad will happen to the Earth in 2012. Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012.- Q: What is the origin of the prediction that the world will end in 2012?
A: The story started with claims that Nibiru, a supposed planet discovered by the Sumerians, is headed toward Earth. This catastrophe was initially predicted for May 2003, but when nothing happened the doomsday date was moved forward to December 2012. Then these two fables were linked to the end of one of the cycles in the ancient Mayan calendar at the winter solstice in 2012 — hence the predicted doomsday date of December 21, 2012.- Q: Does the Mayan calendar end in December 2012?
- Q: Could a phenomena occur where planets align in a way that impacts Earth?
- Q: Is there a planet or brown dwarf called Nibiru or Planet X or Eris that is approaching the Earth and threatening our planet with widespread destruction?
- Q: Is the Earth in danger of being hit by a meteor in 2012?
- And many other similar questions. To read about them all, please read this article on NASA website.

WELL, ON both, NASA & GOVERMENT people lie all the time…they believe we are not ready to know the TRUTH…AS FOR ME, i believe that the WORLD ENDS to those who DIE…THE WORLD in itself will never end..just CIVILIZATIONS…..ALSO, THE Y2K ISSUE was a hoax because, a person just invented that lie…
now when we come to the 2012 doomsday..my concern is that so many religious,prohets, or seers, have agreed ALL TO SOMETHING HAPPENING…this in itself is something unusual..because finally, all the religions, seers,prophets, etc,etc are AGREEING THRU THE DECADES, THAT SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN….
MAYBE SOLAR FLARES, OR A BIG CATASTROPHE, WILL HAPPEN, because MOTHER NATURE IS TIRED OF ALL THE POLLUTION AND ABUSE, THE PEOPLE HAVE PUT ON HER…and maybe, like in the past, THE PLANET NEEDS A GLOBAL CLEANSING..call it mass extinction or global catastophre, but i think the world is muche needed of one, we are just too many people in the planet, who are demanding, depleneshing so much resources, and adding so much pollution, i think, MOTHER EARTH IS WISE..SO, I THINK, SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN, IF NOT BY NATURE, THEN WE, OURSELVES ARE DOOMING THE PLANET BY OUR ABUSE ON IT AND OVER POPULATION…LET T BE..I SAY..
2012 End of the World… Do we truly expect this man-made calamity to occur in 2012, the year when life comes full circle as detailed in Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism! About 3600 years before came Lord Krishna… an avatar of his era (God manifest in human form). In present mankind awaited Bhagavan Kalki… an avatar of present era!
If present mankind awaited a gigantic turbulence in 2012, all results from mass karma performed by 7 billion people existing world wide! As per doctrine of mass karma… as we sow so shall we reap… nothing less or more! The events of 2012 result from our doing… karma performed by humanity in past few decades! Society truly has reached a point of no return!
aha ! yeah, uur funny, all this nasa bullshit is a hoax nasa just tryna cover up there lies because the government threatened to shut them down for trying to bring out the truth, so all of uu people that don’t think the world is gunna end, don’t believe them. i mean just think about it, how many times has our government lied to us? they say they cant see past pluto, but yet they saw another planet past pluto, and now pluto isn’t even a planet, like what the heck and they say all this stuff like, oh aliens aren’t real, oh and why aren’t they? do uu have any proof of that? no not at all, so uu can just stop lying to the people and tell them the truth! oh and another thing, if no one would of elected that dumb ass president that doesnt even have a birth certificate, then maybe the world wouldnt be ending. buut nooooo every one wanted a black president. people are dumb i swear
It’s nice to see some people are actually being realistic about this silly end of the world prophecy, everyone just believes in it so blindly without any real evidence. It is crazy and shows how easily the publics imagination can be manipulated which is the real thing to be scared about.

NASA was the one that STARTED all the hullabaloo about Planet X to start with, when they announced that they had FOUND it, way back in 1983, after launching their new IRAS satellite! (Infra Red Astronomical Satellite)
Their announcement appeared in the Washington Post for a few days, until they decided to “pull it”! ( they must have “run it by” the Brookings Institute)
Then in 1992, NASA held a PRESS CONFERENCE to announce that the orbits of Uranus and Neptune were having deviations in their orbits due to a “large outer solar system body, of 4-8 earth masses!” NASA went on to say that this large object was in a “highly tilted orbit, and was approximately 7 billion miles from our sun.”
So which LIE is it going to be today, NASA? Planet X yes, or planet X no?
You can’t have it both ways. Do we believe the TRUTH, or your DISINFORMATION LIES?
