Science does not believe in the apocalypse
Hypotheses lot Life alone. One in every earthly creature.
One in Earth. One in Sun. One in Solar System. Each has its own, special, unique. And whirl in the dance.
Dance of Life. Where hypotheses are born and die. Astronomical Clock and the biological clock intertwined.

What happens on the planet
The idea of the end of the world as some of the High Court for the sins of humanity exists in various cultures around the world long ago. One is inclined to believe the ancient prophecies, some do not. The most skeptical about the idea of the Apocalypse show, of course, representatives of science.
In the scientific community all the prophecies of the Apocalypse cause only a smile. But despite this, scientists all over the world recently noted a large amount of evidence of some global in scale natural changes of geophysical and astronomical nature. On the planet and in the universe at once began to happen a lot of changes! One gets the feeling that nature is like preparing for some special period in her life ... Of course, the scientific community is not usually associated reasons for these changes to the prophecies of the Apocalypse.
But scientists are stating a fact: it is possible, present and future environmental changes complicate the life on our planet. Why and how? On the first question is no scientific answer. As for the second question, we offer a variety of scientific predictions for the future.
If we compare them with the predictions of the prophets and seers of apocalyptic times, coming to us, you get a very interesting picture ...

Though scientists and do not believe in the Apocalypse, but the possibility of a global natural disaster they have not ruled out in principle. The reason it may be factors such as the displacement of the geographic poles of the planet and the Earth's axis, a catastrophic weakening of the magnetic field of the Earth while moving the magnetic poles of the planet, increased solar activity. Pseudo-scientific, let's say (official science such things are not too inclined to believe), the forecasts are added to the possible apocalyptic factors also impact on the land of new planets with a huge mass and the force of gravity, which for some reason are suddenly closer to the Earth from space.
Consider these factors hypothetical natural perturbations in more detail.
The shift of the geographical poles
One of the most likely factors coming cataclysm - the shift of the geographical poles of the planet. In this case, the crust can be a kind of slip on the surface of the globe - and with a draw away into the unknown gave the ice caps of the poles. Anyway, there are a number of geological and even geographical facts which show that such a great migration poles of the planet has already occurred in the distant past of the Earth, and perhaps not even once.
Hot Shots tend to see the cause of the Flood and the onset of the ice age is in a similar shift of the earth's crust and the changing geographic poles of the planet. Well, if the roof of the Earth go together with poles and everything else on it is, here it is, you see, and very close to the shift of Earth's axis. The planet simply perekuvyrnetsya in the space under the weight biased poles with their huge masses of ice.
And here's the Apocalypse in its purest form!
By the way, U.S. researchers Sager and Koppers on the basis of geomagnetic measurements believe that this incident happened on Earth about 84 million years ago (give or take 2 million years). According to them, the Earth at that distant era turned into space by 16-20 degrees. This process is reflected in the fact that the crust in the region of the Atlantic Ocean was shifted from the north to the south to the equator, at a rate of approximately cm per year, moving more than 10 times faster than the modern continents move at the current pace of continental drift.
However, that may cause such a cataclysm?
There can not do without the idea of the collision of the Earth with a meteorite or asteroid.
Some researchers believe that the shift of the geographic poles and the planet's crust due to the collision of Earth with a large asteroid is theoretically possible. The asteroid crashes into Earth - and under the influence of the earth's crust strike silently slides down along with the geographic poles, and the planet is changing the angle of inclination of its axis ... Other researchers, however, assess this possibility as a minimum, assuming that this can happen only if the diameter of the body, with who will have to face our planet, will be not less than 1000 km!
In our solar system, such objects is not so much, and the possibility of a clash with those of the Earth is still very unlikely.
However, there is another hypothesis about the possible causes of the displacement of the geographic poles, and it belongs to, as emphasized by modern scholars, not someone else, and Einstein himself!
At the time, the press provided data that in 1953, two years before his death, Einstein wrote that at the poles is a constant accumulation of ice, which is located symmetrically around the pole. The Earth's rotation affects these ice masses, creating a centrifugal momentum that is transmitted to the rigid crust. Gradually increasing, this time reaches a critical point, which causes the movement of the earth's crust relative to the planet's core, which can move the polar regions to the equator.
Such movements also inevitably lead to disasters.
A number of modern researchers believe that the shift of the geographic poles, slowly but surely is due to tectonic plate shifts during strong earthquakes.

The change of the magnetic poles
The change of the magnetic poles, the forthcoming us was predicted about 20 years ago by Japanese scientists.
The shift of the magnetic poles is registered since 1885. According to the website http:polus. list.ru, over the past 100 years, the magnetic pole of the Southern Hemisphere has moved nearly 900 km and was in the Indian Ocean. Arctic magnetic pole is moving toward the East Siberian world magnetic anomalies across the Arctic Ocean.
From 1984 to 1994 it was run more than 150 km.
The validity of these measurements confirmed the calculated data and the magnetic north pole.
Why Do People Believe in Pseudoscience, Superstition, Alien Abductions, the Apocalypse? (2000)
Pseudoscience is a claim, belief, or practice which is presented as scientific, but does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence or plausibility, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status. Pseudoscience is often characterized by the use of vague, contradictory, exaggerated or unprovable claims, an over-reliance on confirmation rather than rigorous attempts at refutation, a lack of openness to evaluation by other experts, and a general absence of systematic processes to rationally develop theories.
A field, practice, or body of knowledge can reasonably be called pseudoscientific when it is presented as consistent with the norms of scientific research, but it demonstrably fails to meet these norms.[2] Science is also distinguishable from revelation, theology, or spirituality in that it offers insight into the physical world obtained by empirical research and testing.[3] Commonly held beliefs in popular science may not meet the criteria of science.[4] "Pop science" may blur the divide between science and pseudoscience among the general public, and may also involve science fiction.[4] Pseudoscientific beliefs are widespread, even among public school science teachers and newspaper reporters.[5]
The demarcation problem between science and pseudoscience has ethical political implications, as well as philosophical and scientific issues.[6] Differentiating science from pseudoscience has practical implications in the case of health care, expert testimony, environmental policies, and science education.[7] Distinguishing scientific facts and theories from pseudoscientific beliefs such as those found in astrology, medical quackery, and occult beliefs combined with scientific concepts, is part of science education and scientific literacy.[8]
The term pseudoscience is often considered inherently pejorative, because it suggests something is being inaccurately or even deceptively portrayed as science. Accordingly, those labeled as practicing or advocating pseudoscience usually dispute the characterization.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudosc...
Superstition is a pejorative term for belief in supernatural causality: that one event leads to the cause of another without any natural process linking the two events, such as astrology, religion, omens, witchcraft, etc., that contradicts natural science.[1]
Opposition to superstition was a central concern of the intellectuals during the 18th century Age of Enlightenment. The philosophes at that time ridiculed any belief in miracles, revelation, magic, or the supernatural, as "superstition," and typically included as well much of Christian doctrine.[2]
The word superstition is often used pejoratively to refer to religious practices (e.g., Voodoo) other than the one prevailing in a given society (e.g., Christianity in western culture), although the prevailing religion may contain just as many superstitious beliefs.[1] It is also commonly applied to beliefs and practices surrounding luck, prophecy and spiritual beings, particularly the belief that future events can be foretold by specific unrelated prior events.[3]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersti...
The terms alien abduction or abduction phenomenon describe "subjectively real memories of being taken secretly against one's will by apparently nonhuman entities and subjected to complex physical and psychological procedures". People claiming to have been abducted are usually called "abductees" or "experiencers".
