The orbit of Mars and the Earth have not measurably changed in recorded history. Mars is still between about 50 and 400 million kilometers from Earth and orbits the Sun on a different inclination. Mars is currently at its closest point to Earth for the next nine years.
In order to get on the same orbit as Earth, the orbital velocity of Mars and/or the Earth would need to change by 20,500+ km/h. That is about the impact velocity of a comet or asteroid. However, even if every object in the asteroid belt impacted Mars at such velocities, they would only have 1/100th the mass or momentum needed to change Mars orbital velocity to that of Earth. There isn't a force in the solar system which we know about capable of altering the orbit of Mars to reach the Earth.
Mars is visible with the naked eye. Anyone with a high school knowledge of astronomy can measure its position and movement in the sky and work out it's distance. Repeat in say one month and you can tell that Mars isn't getting any closer to Earth. The change in the orbit of Mars or the Earth is not something which NASA can hide from the world. Backyard astronomers have been measuring the orbit of Mars and the Earth for over four hundred years without NASA's help. NASA does not have any monopoly on seeing Mars or measuring its orbit.

No. That is not true. The orbit of Mars has not changed neither the orbit of the earth. The sun already sets at the west point

Yes, the end of the world has been just around the corner for nearly 2 millenia now (or possibly longer). Not only are we going to crash into mars but an asteroid is going to crash into us and causing every volcano on earth to erupt at the same time and the poles are going to switch and the sun will swell up and envelope us, but this will only happen after the nuclear winter and the Anunaki reptile-people come back from Planet X to enslave us all, because you know they did create us by mixing their dna with monkey dna so we could be their slaves and build the pyramids.

Well, this is a refreshing change of pace! There is nothing that would indicate that the orbit of Mars is changing. I think some people are so addicted to government cover-up stories, that they will make stories up just so they claim a conspiracy.
Why would Muslims benefit from this? The whole things is silly. Our solar system, especially the planets' orbits, is very stable.

the worlds end is just around the corner or it will happen after around 20 lakh years later if you go by hindu mythology
and till now all what has been said by the hindu religious has been correct.
for eg:--
hindus said there are 9 planets.it also said that in kalyug(the last era of our earth that is now) there would be no difference in the clothes and lifestyle of males and females.as we can see now a days there is no differences in the kind of clothes worn by males and females.females cut their hair short while many men keep their hair long
so most probably the worlds end is after 20 lakh years as hindu mythology says that Vishnu(the observer) will incarnate into his 9th and final form to wipe the earth with its evil. as he has not yet come on earth the end will be late i suppose

Funny...sounds similar to 'some guy' who noticed the earth moved around the sun but 'some faith' was not cool with that and then there was all this trouble! LOL
There was an episode of the "West Wing" and the president told a proverb, something like: "A man heard on the radio that a flood was coming, but did nothing, just said 'god will save me'. The flood came and he climbed to his roof, he could have got into a boat, but said 'god will save me'. Then a helicopter came but he turned them away saying 'god will save me'. He drowned. He asked god why did he let him drown? God said, 'you had the radio, boat and helicopter...what more do you want?'."

Your friend must be the greatest scientist who ever lived! Does he also know that the moon is a NASA hoax, that the Earth is flat, and that Elvis is alive and working in a donut shop owned by the Easter Bunny in Cleveland?

No, the end of the world is billions of years away. The idea that anything that dramatic could happen while there are still human beings on this planet is ridiculously arrogant.

Hi. The end of your life is all that matters to you. Less than 100 years after your birth in most cases.

your friend is full of it. The end of the world is very far away. and why would NASA want to benefit muslims? They are pesky at best. I'd go as far as to call them irritating.
