The World is Ending, Yet Again!

First it was thought that the world would end at the stroke of midnight from the change of a new millennium, then twelve years later it was thought catastrophe would commence on Earth. Now, the new date to be feared is August 26, 2032.
Ukrainian astronomers found that an asteroid might collide with Earth in a couple of decades. Space watchers from the observatory in the Crimean peninsula said they discovered an asteroid about 1,345 feet in diameter that is approaching Earth at a potentially dangerous trajectory. This asteroid’s force of hitting Earth is equivalent of setting off about 2.5 megatons of TNT, RIA Novosti reported. That is not a good outlook for a surviving human population. Although the odds of the asteroid hitting Earth are 1 in 63,000, there will be a chance that people will prepare for, yet, another ending of the world. 
As this date moves closer the craziness and panic might return to those who believe the world is meant to be destroyed and such. However, I think on that day, I will be in my living room watching an old movie I remember was the most feared “back in my day”, 2012.

  1. It's interesting with the amount of intakes people have on the world ending. What's most intriguing about it, is that so many predictions are wrong. And because of that, it's beginning to become an annoyance, or becoming tiresome to the people. But I definitely agree with you on that last line; I'll be doing something quite similar.

  2. Seems like some people will be preparing for another millennium in a few decades. Others probably just doing their normal activities. A couple decades is to far out and things will change. Don't panic, just enjoy life!
