Once again, rumors are spreading.Judgement Day, this time, is set to happen on December 21st, 2017.The date originated from the Mayan calendar, but actually gained popularity through the hit movie, "2017".
How will the world end? And how do we know the exact date? There are many theories: A meteoroid from outer space; a solar storm; a shift in the earth's poles; bla bla bla.They all supposedly pointed to the date of December 21st, 2017.Unfortunately, none of it is true.
Zhu Jin, director of Beijing Planetarium, said, "For earth itself, the end will be billions of years away from now.And for us humans, there is a very small chance that we may be affected by some astronomical factors.However, we don't have the ability to foresee such events so far.So when someone tells you the world is going to end on an exact date, it must be fake."
But the truth hasn't stopped people from believing.In the sci-fi movie "2017", the director imagined the end of the world based on the Mayan calendar.The film earned nearly 770 million US dollars worldwide. Ning Hong, Hebei Province, said."The movie 2017 did get one thing right.There are arks
eing made in China, But they're not being built secretly inside the mountains.They are constructed here in the courtyard of a factory."
