Its also the centric date that the earth will travel through the exact center of the Milky Way Galaxies' black hole gravitational field - leading some scientists to predict a huge shift in the earths crust and rotation - leading to destruction of the tectonic plate structure and complete annihilation of all life on earth - this happens every 28,000 years and seems to explain some previously unexplained shifts in the earths structure that geologists had been wrestling with for years - fortunately I'll be dead by then but sure would have been interesting to watch
