The world WON’T end in September ...NASA forced to address radical claims a giant asteroid will soon destroy humanity
A massive asteroid is on a collision course with Earth, and it is large enough to spell the end of humanity.
This is the radical claim of an online community of biblical theorists who say that life as we know it will be wiped out between 22 to 28 September this year.
Despite their lack of credentials, the popularity of the prediction has now forced NASA to speak up, dismissing the theory as unfounded.
‘NASA knows of no asteroid or comet currently on a collision course with Earth, so the probability of a major collision is quite small,’ a Nasa spokesperson said.
‘In fact, as best as we can tell, no large object is likely to strike the Earth any time in the next several hundred years.’
According to the theorists, governments of the world’s leading nations are aware of what will happen.
They believe they are keeping the information secret to prevent mass panic and allow the rich and famous time to prepare for the event.
According to the ‘message’, Rodriguez says the asteroid would strike near Puerto Rico triggering earthquakes and tsunamis.
This, he adds, will devastate the east coast of the US, Mexico, central and southern America.
He warned that NASA should issue an alert ‘so people can be relocated from the areas that are to be affected.’
Other accounts of the apocalypse theory being shared online agree that the event will be a climate catastrophe.
Some cite a meeting between French foreign minister Laurent Fabius and US Secretary of State John Kerry in May 2014 is further evidence the Rapture is approaching, according to the Huffington Post.
Others have even predicted the events will be started by Cern’s Large Hadron Collider.
One blogger, said: ‘The Cern logo is 666, the sign of the beast in a circle. The Cern collider looks like the all seeing eye or stargate we see so much of.’
