Asteroid 2012 LZ1 not hit the Earth in the next 750 years

2012 LZ1 Asteroid discovered on 10 June by the Siding spiral Observatory in Australia and capable as harmful by the Minor Planet Center, from colliding with the earth at least the next 750 years. The Puerto Rican Observatory Arecibo, which has one of the largest telescopes in the world at 305 meters in diameter, reported that by using the planetary radar system has determined that the orbit of the asteroid LZ1 not placed close enough to earth to collide in the next 7 and a half centuries, Efe reported.

Delayed the start of MSG-3 to July 5, 2012


Arianespace announce the start of MSG-3 satellite from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, originally programmed for June 19 has been delayed until July 5 at night. This delay was caused by additional checks perform on the EchoStar 17 telecommunications satellite to be launched along with MSG-3 aboard an Ariane5 ECA.MSG-3 has successfully passed all pre-launch tests and is ready to begin the process of loading fuel in their tanks.

Half-done lunar eclipse on June 4, 2012

At morning on Monday, June 4, 2012, the moon move in the shadow of the Earth, known as the "umbra", producing a partial lunar eclipse. This time, the umbra will cover 37% of the lunar disc.
The eclipse will start at 04:00 hours in the morning during the full moon. From this phenomenon, you can see how the white circle will begin to lose its perfection, as if he were a part.
It will be visible across the Pacific from China to the United States.
One can see this beautiful event, simply by using binoculars with 7 increases by 50 mm aperture, and so on. And, of course, also with a telescope.

What is expected for 2012?

Following the September 2005 eruptions, solar scientists estimated that the next solar cycle, would start in 2007, later than expected, it would be 30-50% stronger than the former (which itself was a record), and reach its climax in 2012 ...

Some believe that the violent activity of the Sun in 2012 will cause even a Terrestrial Pole Shift. Patrick Gerald, in his book "The World Cataclysm in 2012" put it this way:
"The riddles facing astronomers, geologists, physicists and others can be solved in one instance with the catastrophic theories of the ancient Egyptians and Mayans.

Sunday 1. April 2012 Asteroid 2012 EG5 passed close to Earth


The asteroid 2012 EG5 pass without risk close to Earth this Sunday, April 1. The projected distance traffic is 230,000 kilometers, i.e. 0.6 times the distance between Earth and Moon. Its estimated diameter is about 48 meters, according to the monitoring program of near-Earth J PL (Jet Propulsion Laboratory) spacecraft. 
Astronomers believe the objects are able to approach within 3.5 times the distance from Earth to the Moon may be altered in their normal course by the gravity of our planet or moon. The asteroid 2012 EG5 traveling speeds of 8.24 km / s. It was initially estimated its closest pass to the April 2 but in the end has been more rapid. It was discovered on March 15.

In 2012 predicts strong solar storms


A report released by NASA anticipates strong solar storms in 2012, which may involve a cascade of all communications systems in the world. The doomsday theorists find evidence for their ideas.  A recent report (a dossier of 145 pages) prepared for the NASA and ESA through the National Academy of Sciences USA confirms some of the apocalyptic predictions for 2012. The report says he expects for 2012 a solar storm that could destroy all living systems on Earth. 
The theme of a large-scale solar storm to affect the entire planet has made some NASA scientists begin to believe the prophecies of the Maya and the Hopi Indians of the end of an era for 2012. These people predicted the end of the Fifth Age (now) with a cosmic tragedy. And NASA said as published by the National Academy of Sciences, which is a concern this news. This issue specifically addresses the potential risks of a series of catastrophic events that happen throughout 2012. These events are characterized by the bombardment of solar storms real and swarms of an asteroid.
