semantics........its all fact,the wobble completion, & the alignment, are documented and are being observed as we speak...these are just speculation,theories on what the posible affects might be

go on line and look up ...the center of our universe....nasa has very good graphs &pics plus explainations about the whole thing..the wobble cycle, and alignments..pretty interesting

As near as I can tell,bedlum,that is not an official NASA site.They seem to be citing NASA on that site.And the claims being made on that site seem to be highly speculative,and possibly based on a misinterpretation of dataIn a metaphorical sense the Earth is the center of OUR universe. It is the center of our perpective of space. However,I am not so sure about the claim of the Earth being the literal center of the universe

semantics? galaxy and universe are synonymous?

The earths wobble stopped in January of 2006 yet we're still here...

The basic concept is this:

The sun rotates at a slight angle, just like earth does.
As it wobbles it tilts the sleeves, causing them to clash with each other and disrupt the surface which leads to sun spots and solar flares. The last solar cycle was in 2001. Each solar cycle has a period when the flares are the strongest which usually happens near the solar equator, called the solar maximum. We are due to have one on or around December 21, 2012 but because the earth has stopped, a very small minority has developed the theory that we are going to see more dramatic climate changes, earthquakes, and volcanoes erupting.

The Mayan calendar stops in 2012 but the Mayan prophecy doesn't say that the world as it is known will come to an end, it does predict that we will experience major natural events much like the current theory regarding the solar maximum. To offer a "doomsday", prediction based on the potentially increased possibility that we will experience increased environmental unrest based on the earth being aligned with the center of the universe is ludicrous considering that every particle of matter is aligned with the center of the universe and in a constant state of expansion.

It is true that there is research being conducted because of the completion of the earths wobble but the research is purely to calculate the probability and severity of the impact to the environment. In a nutshell, they want to figure out IF the lack of wobble will make any difference or if it will remain relatively the same.

one concept they recently came up with because of imagine tech , is that the center of our galaxy is a massive black hole.there are other sites to look on. that one was just the first one i wrote down..you can find some very good info an actual mapping/imagine of our galaxy and the positions of our earth in conjunction with it

another theory is that according to the ancient writtings the gods will return to the earth...the gods being the aliens that taught humans technology and helped improve their minds

(Well a galaxy is not a universe, but..) The "direct line" is the galactic equator which is at the edge of the galaxy. The equator is the 'path' where the galaxy spins.

Our sun will reach the galactic equator on December 21, 2012 at 11:11 a.m world time. The earth goes around the sun. I don't know where the earth will be on that date. It would be possible that the earth could cross the equator before the sun or afterwards since we move around the sun.

Our solar system is revolving at an angle different from the Milky way galaxy because it is not part of this galaxy, --or at least it didn't use t be. It was captured in a collision with a different galaxy many billions of years ago.

So as far as the DNA and life evolving in this solar system is concerned, we are the "aliens." Most of the galaxy inhabitants are probably not "humans," although they are humanoids.

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_phenomenon)

I don't want to survive anything that can't be dealt with by having a weeks worth of food and water in my house and a good emergency kit.

Yes it will take a while to get through it ... but I think the exact center is reached on that date.

I have read some speculation that 2012 is the year that the poles will flip (as has happened several times in our past)

the poles flipping in and of itself isnt a big deal at all. South will become north and north will become south. Might screw up GPS and stuff, and then again might not

but if it did happen it would disrupt the magnetic field that protects us from solar radiation for a few days or weeks. We might all get really bad sunburns

but that is just speculation that the pole flip might happen

I kinda doubt it myself

The Draconians

I do believe there are changing coming..I don't buy into the doomsday scenario however...I think it is an important shift, and maybe uncomfortable for some, not the end, possibly a beginning. jmo

it was all started by the aussies who are fed up with being "down under".

Gotcha, add sun screen to my 2012 kit, right beside the ammo!!

I read that previous pole flippings are believed to have been gradual, and to have taken thousands of years to complete. I don't have a reliable source, I could be wrong, but I wouldn't put it past the "2012" enthusiasts to simply ignore this inconvenient notion.

I agree. I think the magnetic pole reversal is a gradual thing. I think I read where it has moved a bit already. I don't really understand the pole reversal thing anyway.

If anyone is interested...
