* Polar Shift is a theory that on December 21st 2012 Earth will be in line with the sun and a *Black Hole that is at the center of our galaxy the Milky Way, All these actions may cause earths poles change move position, or have an affect on Earth's magnetic field which might cause the loss of Earth's atmosphere, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or other natural disasters.

There is absolutely no evidence or any reason under our current understanding of physics why those events should have any effect on the earths magnetic field. Gravity, the only force that is exerted on earth from those objects, would have no role in the alignment of magnetic fields. Although it is true that scientists have found evidence that the earth's poles DO flip-flop it is generally regarded to be a matter of geology rather than cosmology. However it would not cause earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, although there would be some loss of atmosphere.

I've always wondered how they took pictures of our galaxy(obviously, parts of it have been photographed..I mean even the moon would qualify as a part) from a distance when we are in the middle of it. My guess is either they find a spot that can reflect the shot back like a mirror (i doubt it ) or they just take all the pictures from all directions and combine them and make an accurate fabrication picture.

Umm? Just so it's clear, they havent taken any pictures of our own galaxy. They simply know what it looks like through telescopic observation and then use computer rendering to create the images.

no, you misunderstood. I don't believe in astrology (although most of my friends/ex-gf are cancers). And besides astrology has nothing to do with Mayan prediction. And what I meant is that Mayan astronomers were very good even for OUR time. They had solar eclipses and equinoxes all perfectly timed with a margin of like 30 seconds. Thats pretty damn good for 'no telescopes' don't you think?

And I was not the one puzzled about the milky way picture, re-read my post. I suggested that its either a concept photo or (unlikely) a reflected real photo.

PS- Why are you attacking me? mad from the all the BB losses?

Ok lets see you calculate sunrise and sundown for every day, including solar/lunar eclipses and any other shit. (without a calculator or the internet).

No thanks? I'm not an astonomer. How would my inability to do this prove any of your points?

"You can say a lot about the Maya, but you've got to hand it to them: they knew a hell of a lot about stars. For instance, they calculated the exact duration of a year to a thousandth of a decimal point"

"More disturbing, the Maya's were awfully good at astrology, too. Mysteriously, they predicted in what year their civilization would be overrun by foreigners coming from over the seas. "

"But actually, the Maya's never predicted anything concrete about 2012."

"The Maya's didn't really believed in endings: their conception of time was circular, with every end being the beginning of something new. So, 2012 shouldn't be an exception."

ForeverWar, You could also claim that they destroyed themselves by raping their lands. But the initial contact year is most significant.

actually it they dont predict the end of the world (according to people who refute this claim) Its the end of an "age" and thats the calender they found. They have numbers for dates higher than 2012, the world wont end. The mayans didnt know any more about the earth than we do today.

Also the magnetic shift of the poles has happened TONS of times in the past and life has gone on so the poles shifting actually wont mean much, we may get a little more solar radiation than usual but the atmosphere should protect us from most of it.
