Earth Matter's of 2012

This is the most asked question especially after the release of the film 2012. There have been many reasons which had made people think this theories from all over the world have been coming up that has proved that the world will come to an end in 2012. Here are some of the theories that I have come up with, lets have a look at them. Prediction of the may an calendar Mayans were a blood thirsty race who were excellent in two things, sacrificing virgins and building astrological equipments which would give accurate calculations. Thousands of years ago when the present discoveries of science were just a fantasy, the mayan tribe calculated the length of lunar moon which is 329.53020 days  and they were behind by just 34 seconds. They predicted that the earth will come to an end in 2012 and since their calculation of lunar moon was very near to accurate so it is quite possible that they may have predicted the dooms day right. The atom smasher Scientists in Europe are ont their way of ...

Earthquake is one such nature’s devastation which causes immense loss to life and property. It is very difficult to predict the occurrence of an earthquake. In the past earthquakes have caused great damage to life and property and the biggest example of it was the tsunami that hit Japan in 2011. It happened as a result of earthquake and due to it Japan was on the verge of a nuclear catastrophe. Japan is one of the few most developed nations in the world but still they could not avoid the disaster earthquake that cost them so many lives. Scientists have come up with few engineering ways that can cause less damage to buildings and may reduce the damage caused during an earthquake to quite an extent. In this section we will discuss few such points. Modern engineering to make home earthquake resistance                                 Ear...

Earthquake is one of the most uncertain natural calamities that occur leading to a massive loss of human life and property. We may be scientifically quite advanced to reach the moon and even mars but we are way behind in finding a solution to the massive destruction that happens during an earthquake. When an earthquake occur the movement of the plates is quite less in terms of distance but the force generated is quite high which results in the massive destruction. In this section we will discuss what makes a building fall during an earthquake and what are the possible ways by which we can prevent this fall?   Buildings fall during earthquake- why?   During an earthquake the ground moves like a series of shock waves in a similar manner as what happens when we throw a pebble in water. The ripples formed in the action can be used as an example to describe the series of shock during the earthquake. Such shock series or a sudden movement of the ground generates huge force which sh...

Ever since mankind has set his foot on Earth and has attained knowledge about its surroundings, there has been one thing that has continuously hit his conscious from where have we come.  Related to this question many other questions have also come up and that is when will the world come to end and how will it happen? Many movies have been made on this concept and these movies have shown different ways by which world will come to an end. The Belief Scientists across the world have so far come up with different theories that too says that the world will  come to an end. Some say that in future the sun will grow into larger in size and will absorb the Earth into it. Others say that the sun will gradually lose its energy and will shrink. It will no longer provide heat to any planet in the solar system and ice age will set into Earth. There have been much talk about the ancient Mayan calendar which predicts that the world will end on December 21 st 2012. Mayan was an ancient trib...
