Is 2012 the end of the world?
Based on the available scientific evidence and old historical documents, the theories that deal with the possibility of the destruction of the world by 2012 have been examined.
Considering the current conditions of the earth and the existing crises, many scientists are very worried about human life and are studying the facts that can one day lead to the end of life on the blue planet. According to some theories, the end of the world, which is mentioned in the ancient Mayan calendar of the year 2012, can become a reality for various reasons. According to these theories and documents, Telegraph magazine has investigated some of these reasons and the probability of their realization in the next three years.
Attack of space aliens: This phenomenon initially became the subject of many science fiction works of art, but gradually researchers realized that the concern of aliens attacking the earth is increasing. The number of UFO sightings has increased and many signs and proofs of seeing these strange phenomena have been provided. Among these evidences are the efforts of various governments around the world to control UFOs over the past 50 years. But in spite of all these evidences, which many consider to be imaginary and born of the illusion of witnesses, the probability of an alien attack on Earth by 2012 is only estimated at 0.1 out of 10.
Collision with the ground: Thousands of internet forums and different sites have announced that sometime in the early 21st century, an unknown planet will collide with the earth or pass by it at a very close distance, and as a result, destroy civilization or cause huge damages and transformations. It will leave an irreparable mark on the earth. This planet with the fictitious name “Nibiru” is assumed to be a planet in the solar system that moves in an irregular orbit and reaches the inner parts of the solar system every 3,700 years. Very few evidences have been presented to prove this theory, including the introduction of 10 planets by NASA in 2005 that are outside the solar system and may have entered the inner parts of the solar system by 2012. Pass near the ground. With all the possibility of this encounter 0.2 out of 10 is estimated.
Solar Crisis: This crisis is one of the few scenarios associated with the end of the Mayan calendar that can have a scientific basis. In this scenario that The probability of its occurrence is estimated to be 0.3 out of 10. Intense solar radiation or gas explosions in December 2012 can engulf the earth and destroy mankind along with the earth’s ecosystem. So far, there is no evidence of such a phenomenon occurring in The year 2012 is not presented, but connections have been found between the 11-year solar periods and the time cycle of the Mayan calendar. However, although solar flares can cause problems for some equipment, satellites and astronauts, they will not have the power to destroy the Earth until at least 2012. The only serious danger that threatens the earth from the sun is the exhaustion of the sun’s energy and the swallowing of the earth by this huge star, which will also be possible in the next five billion years.
Changing the magnetic poles: Many believe that the magnetic poles of the earth will change in the not-so-distant years and it will affect the pattern of the earth’s orbital rotation and cause a great disaster. These people have provided evidence of the earth’s polarity change in the past and believe that these changes can be observed by studying sunspots and magnetic field theory. At the same time, some believe that the ancient Mayans and Egyptians were also aware of the occurrence of such a phenomenon in the future, but this secret has been kept secret by the governments today. Researchers from Princeton University and Toulouse in France have found out that the planet Earth went through a period of balancing its poles about 800 million years ago. The 50-degree angle change in the North Pole in 20 million years is one of the evidences that researchers have obtained, and based on this, they believe that such a phenomenon is possible, but in the next million years and The probability of its occurrence will be one in 10.
Supervolcano: A supervolcanic explosion will be one of the biggest explosions seen in human history and will be caused by the increase in the amount of magma in the earth’s core and the absence of an escape route from this area of the earth. The result of such an explosion will be the dispersion of a large amount of toxic gases in the earth’s atmosphere and the covering of large parts of the land by magmas. The images that have been recorded by satellites over the past years show signs of changes in the underground molten rocks that can percent He made the probability of this explosion one out of 10 and provided scientific evidence to prove this theory.
Peak oil: The decline of global oil reserves is definitely a reality that can lead to the collapse of investment and the global economy. But the peak oil theory discusses the issue of the increase in demand against the amount of production. According to this theory, there will come a time when the demand for this energy resource will exceed its production. According to Mehr, some believe that this phenomenon has already started, but others have announced that it started in 2012. However, despite efforts to produce alternative sources of energy The probability of this phenomenon is calculated as 4 out of 10.
Destruction of bees: 36% of beehives in the United States were destroyed in the winter of 2008 due to a disorder called bee colony destruction disorder. This disorder, during which all the worker bees of a hive die suddenly and only the queen bee remains, has spread in several European countries, including France, Belgium, Italy, Portugal and Spain. So far, reasons such as pests, severe weather changes and mobile phone waves have been announced as the causes of this disorder, but the effect of none of them has been proven so far, and since no effective treatment has been provided to control this epidemic so far, It can be seen that the theory of the extinction of bees will soon become a bitter reality.
Due to the fact that the cultivation of many agricultural products such as soybeans, cotton, oilseeds such as almonds, grapes, apples and sunflowers requires the presence of bees and the activities of these small insects have a direct impact on the production of 30% of the world’s food. puts, the highest probability of life destruction due to a natural phenomenon is presented to this theory 7 out of 10 is estimated .
