A Clip About the 2012 Prophesy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGPcjMe6Qlw

Here is a clip about the "astronomy of 2012" - descirbing a bit about the science behind the Mayan prophesy that the Earth will end in 2012, hence the new action movie 2012. My undergraduate degree is in Latin American Studies so I think that the Mayans are a fascinating people.

I liked the clip because it is a fairly understandable discussion of a facet of astronomy which I ha not considered, and it had some good graphics and even some astrophotography of our own galaxy.
