Well, the Mayans are up this time, along with the I Ching, and Nostradamus.Launch date 12/21/12... The last day of the Mayan calendar. On that day the full alignment of the Earth with the Sun and the creamy center of the Milky Way's giant black hole - aptly named the 'Black Rift' completes. The Sun will enter the 'Age Of Aquarius'.
