There had been this sort of astronomical phenomenon that would happen on October 17, 2008. They say that the sun will continuously rise for a total of 36 hours around Asia while the U.S. will experience 36 hours of darkness. It will make 3 days into 2 longer days that they say happens only once every 2400 years.
If you have received this e-mail, you probably may have forwarded it to all your friends too thus the rumor just grew and grew. Will the sun really rise for 36 hours on October 17th?
If you believe this rumor then you better read about how the earth rotates around the sun a little more. If the sun will not set for 36 hours then that would probably only mean that our Earth had stopped rotating for 36 hours thus everything remains on a standstill. If this will ever happen, just imagine what the consequences would be. Take note, if the Earth wouldn’t rotate, it’s not just the sun not setting for 36 hours that we should all worry about.
Our climate would change among many other effects. Ask a scientist to further explain to you what the other consequences could be. Surely there’s a lot more horrifying events that would take place if this rumor would be true.
Whoever circulated this rumor may have something in mind really. Perhaps they just want to be famous or they just want to play around the minds of everyone.
The rumor is said to have come from India and India is one of the most religious countries in Asia thereby making the rumor sound more credible to some with less sense of judgment.
This is definitely just a hoax and it’s impossible to happen. Hopefully no hoax like this will circulate again after 2400 years.
