The end of the world is a fashionable and practically inexhaustible topic. No sooner had conversations about the "Mayan calendar prophecy" subsided, when a new date for the end of the world was set on July 17, 2015.

The latest news about the impending global catastrophe dispensed with ancient prophecies and other mysticism: the cosmic acid cloud was declared the "culprit". Talk about him began back in 2005, but for a long time remained in the shadow of the Mayan calendar. But December 21, 2012 passed, but nothing interesting happened, and the cloud was remembered. Initially, the end of the world was "planned" on June 1, 2014, but then the date was "moved" more than a year in advance - July 17, 2015.
Doomsday scenario
About the impending disaster reported the American (according to other sources - English) astrophysicist Albert Shervinsky, close to NASA. According to the scientist, a supermassive black hole located in the center of the galaxy erupted in an acid cloud, the size of which is 16 million km. At that moment, when the cloud "spotted" the Chandra orbital X-ray telescope, it was in the region of the conditional radius of the black hole.
According to astrophysics, the cloud should reach the solar system in 2014 or 2015. Possible consequences range from article to article - from the death of all life on Earth to the complete destruction of the solar system, including the Earth.
Journalists sought clarification from NASA, but experts from the space agency replied that they knew nothing about either Dr. Shervinsky or the acid cloud. Of course, it was concluded that both NASA and scientists around the world, connected by a universal conspiracy, are hiding such important information in order to avoid panic - after all, nothing can be done anyway.
