Astronomer Phil Plait - 2012: The Year Nothing Happened

About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery

1. It's 2016 now. NOTHING happend!
2. at 23:40 and onwards he talks about having taken a picture of Jupiter and the moon in the same picture.
   And then he still thinks its perfectly normal for stars and such not to be in the pictures of the Apollo missions.
   Surely at least one of the brightest would have shown up..........
   Or been seen by the astronauts from the surface of the moon. But not only with the press conference but also with a one to one interview mr Neil denied the possibility of seeing stars from the surface.
3. Hey, Our god is a screw up too, high five Mayans!!!
4. Most of you are following the Gregorian Calendar. The December 21st 2012  follows the Ethiopian Calendar. Also if I was some Evil entity that wanted to trick people to losing their faith  I would lie to them that 2012 is doomsday. That way after 2012 passes by, people lose their faith and become more lawless. Don't you find it odd that 2012 was HYPED UP!?
5. This guy is a total schill for the lame stream scientific establishment. Another crony 
6. It would have been nice to actually see the slides Phil was talking about. Great lecture, but the lack of a competent cameraman was disappointing.
7. It's like Y2K... Mayan Calendar Version.
8. at 35:00 the cameraman unfortunately falls asleep, tilting the camera and I guess pressing on the "zoom in" button with his fat man boobs. One of crucial parts of the video gets ruined... 
9. Re: Solar Flare - look up carrington event on google or wikipedia. Solar weather of note involve CME's and flares; big CME's can be problematic, CME's with inverted magnetic polarity can be promlematic, and ESPECIALLY big flares that happen when earths magnetic connection to the sun is centred on the spot that's flaring can be problematic.The"2012"idiotic predictions are easy to dismiss, but just because these events don't happen when some psychic twit predicts doesn't negate their existance.
10. this video actually is interresting .. but i wouldnt be surprised if Astronomer Phil Plait is christian ... and one fact against this video ... if he did any actual research about end of world mayen arent saying about end of world .. christian bullshit is talking about end of world in bible ... 
11. This video was entertaining.
12. This video is a minute and a half long. Wtf are you people talking about?
13. Great lecture, but the camera handling was bad, the cameraman kept zooming in on Phil or the audience when he had an important slide on. Very frustrating.
14. I mean he covered the common/rare reporting issue in general and with a different example. It would not add to the talk to give this other (or different) example.
15. Anyone who is passionate about the Space program should find these referances (Youtube) of interest. a. JamesWright ScottishRite, Sentinel program. b.The videos ofMikeRavero c."HowZionistsDivideAndConquer" Inclination and funding of the Space program are elementary. If neither are in place. We have a big problem.
16. my point is these experts tend to belittle the significance of this event by telling us it's much more common than it is.. and not even mentioning the 26000 year solstice cycle at all. surely if you're an 'expert' on these things, you wouldn't omit that. My question is why? if you research it, you'll find there is much significance attached to this 26000 year cycle.. one aspect has to do with the evolution of the human race..
17. what would it add? it still has already happened many times before. what's 4.5 billion divided by 26 thousand? 
18. Well I, for one, find this to be very interesting because I don't need distracting "entertainment" to pay attention to intriguing facts. 
19. They're called facts, dipshit. Also your sentence was poorly constructed.
20. Excellent Reply
