End of Days is transferred to 20 years

End oof Days will happen no sooner than twenty years, most likely, do not get it. He has disappointed us at all "expectations" of 2012: The Earth is not a raid on the celestial axis, the asteroid to Earth, probably will not fall, but Maya did not mean disaster, and the global changes that are waiting world. The only serious danger threatening our planet today, is not in space and on Earth itself - it's volcanoes.

Maya does not pessimists

Why did not figure in 2012 so terrible as it scared? The Maya had several calendars. One of them, based on a system of accounts "tsolkin," had special meaning. According to him, 260 days. These 260 days were divided into two parallel series, 20 and 13 days. slot_MayaEach of the 13 days had a fancy name: Kib (Yellow Warrior) Entsab (White Mirror), Hish (white wizard) and so on. Within thirty days of the cycle have the same name, but the first 7 of them repeated. For industrial purposes the Maya Haab calendar used with familiar to us 365 days a year. Months, however, it was 18.

Finally, Maya has been the so-called long-time reference system. It used dvedtsatirichnye, vosemnadtsatirichnye trinadtsatirichnye and counting system. In terms of a usual decimal values in it reach astronomical values: a tunnel it is 360 days, and one piktun - 7890 years and 150 days. There is in him, and two values, an order of magnitude larger piktuna.

So, the end of the world referred to by the Maya, is actually only the date on which the cycle time of three Mayan calendars. Mikhail Prokopenko says that even if we accept this version of the truth, fear is still not worth it. Mayan end of the cycle is not considered a disaster, and global and happy upgrading. Nobody, of course, does not guarantee that this is the update will not be subject to certain shocks, but planetary catastrophe can be expected.

Heavenly axis

Another argument in favor of the end of all life December 21, 2012 called the fact that the winter solstice sun and the earth line will be directed to the center of the universe. If you believe - it's not true. First of all, something like that happens every year. Second, this line will be at 7 degrees, or 14 diameters of the sun, deviate from the center of the universe. Finally, even if it is true, then no it is not fraught with consequences.

Asteroids

Until now, physicists do not know a single asteroid, the probability of collision with Earth is more than one hundredth of a percent. That does not mean that the asteroid falls to Earth: it is possible, scientists simply do nothing about it know.

Volcanoes

The only thing that can provoke a catastrophe of global scale - it's volcanoes are located in seismic zones in Japan, California, the Pacific Islands. However, this danger in the next year we passed, as before serious eruptions should always be a period of years in the 10 - 20 of seismic activity, where the volcanoes are gaining their destructive potential. Should this occur, Petersburg would still be safe - it is located on an old stove with low seismic activity.
