But NASA \u201cwas so sure\u201d the world wouldn\u2019t end, they released the video more than a week earlier on December 11, 2012.<\/p>\n<p>The video opens with: \u201c&#8221;December 22, 2012. If you&#8217;re watching this video, it means one thing. The world didn&#8217;t end yesterday.&#8221; NASA goes on to explain that the Mayan calendar is no different to the calendar that we use today.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just as the calendar you have on your kitchen wall does not cease to exist after December 31, the Mayan calendar does not cease to exist on December 21, 2012. This date is the end of the Mayan long-count period but then &#8211; just as your calendar begins again on January 1 &#8211; another long-count period begins for the Mayan calendar.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In a more recent video, NASA\u2019s senior scientist and astrobiologist, David Morrison reassures people by debunking several doomsday rumours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a recent internet rumour that NASA has confirmed three days of total darkness on the earth starting December 22. Well, NASA doesn\u2019t say that; nobody said it. It\u2019s just one more crazy idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>ScienceCasts NASA Why didnt world end December 21 2012 video<\/strong><\/p>\n[media id=763 width=610 height=340]\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASA has explain Mayan calendar speculations that the world will end today December 21, 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":702,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,80,63,17,1,118,14],"tags":[41805,40954,41806,13126,41803,41807,41808,41809,41810,1068,41804],"class_list":["post-30829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-america","category-breaking-news","category-daily","category-europe","category-general","category-hot","category-world","tag-december-21-12-world-end","tag-mayan-calendar","tag-mayan-calendar-speculations","tag-nasa","tag-nasa-explains-why-world-dindnt-end","tag-nasa-has-explain","tag-nasa-video-youtube","tag-sciencecasts","tag-sciencecasts-world-end-video","tag-video","tag-world-end"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/702"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30829\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
