Astronomy & Space - October 2007

The mayans predicted that the world would end on december 21 2012, and it turns out there's gonna be an eclipse on that exact date. Could they be getting at something? Although i've heard that they didn't actually say the world would end, but its just the end of a period of time on the calendar. is that true?

The farest Galazy away from ours ... or should I say the farest Galazy that scientist have been able to see is a little over 12 Billion light years away. They aren't saying that there isnt a galazy further away just that it's the most distant one that they have been able to identify. At this point scientist are saying that is the edge of the known universe.

Does anyone else believe that it is possilble that our known universe is just one of multiple ones that could have been spawned from multiple Big Bangs. Beyond the edge of our Universe ... it may even be 100 billion light years away there could be another Universe with it's on set of Billions and Billions of stars.

I am an attorney at law, this not a homework assignment, it is more of a hobby. I heard/read some time ago that the universe was 40 light years across before the BB, but now I note that is more likely just really well compressed singularity. What is the current collective theory?

I am just interested.

I saw a show about the bermuda triangle as being a possible worm hole to the dragons triangle in Japan, I also saw a show that it was an ancient teleport station for traveling to different planets, during the time of Alantis! Anyone believe in this? I would like some opinions on this for a report in school, open to all beliefs, but please spare me from smart *** responses, these are just thoughts thanks.

The link from N.A.S.A. say around 2010 to 2011 there will be massive solar storms, when i quickly glanced at it i got the impression they weren't telling the whole story, this time frame is very close to the end of the Mayan calender that maybe this is what is going to destroy all like on earth, should i move down to my fallout shelter right now?
