NASA is pretty sure the world won't end tomorrow. In fact, they're so cocky about it, they've released a video for Saturday, December 22nd, entitled, "Why The World Didn't End Yesterday."
According to the video, the Mayan prophecies do not foretell the end of the world on December 21st. In the Mayan Long-Count Calendar system (the most complicated ever made), the world was created on August 11th, 3140 BC. On this date, the calendar, which is composed of 5 numbers and scrolls like an odometer, read 13 0 0 0 0. On December 21st, 2012 it will read the exact same numerals.
So if anything, the truth is that tomorrow is more of a "reset," or a sort of birthday for the universe. Now it's understandable how this could get hyped up into a doomsday scenario. The truth is, you'll probably watch this video again with your friends on Saturday over some beers and a pizza. But maybe there are some subtle planetary shifts going on, and for that reason we've been advised to recommend the following: have an amazing weekend. End of the world or not. If you're lucky enough to be at Day Zero festival, we know you're doing just that.
