NASA confident world won't end on December 21, releases explanation video | Geekquinox - Yahoo! News Canada

NASA released a new ScienceCasts video yesterday, but rather than talking about something that has just happened or something that will happen in the future, it instead talks about something that will not be happening in the future — specifically the December 21, 2012 Mayan apocalypse.

The video, entitled Why the World Didn't End Yesterday, speaks to the viewer from the perspective of them watching it on or after December 22nd, and goes on to explain the Mayan calendar, the misconceptions behind the supposed prophecy, and provide expert testimony from noted astronomers to refute the various agents of our destruction that the doomsday 'seers' have been going on about for years.
