Un fizician a calculat data exactă a Apocalipsei. Sfârșitul lumii ar trebui să fie vineri, 13 noiembrie 2026 • Newsweek România

A physicist calculated the date of the Apocalypse as November 13, 2026, based on population growth trends. This prediction, made 66 years ago, suggested that humanity would reach unsustainable levels, leading to self-destruction. The study, published in Science, indicated that the doubling time for the population was decreasing. However, the prediction was overly simplistic and did not account for various demographic factors. While the global population has grown, it has not approached the catastrophic levels predicted. Current estimates suggest around 8 billion people, far from the billions projected by the original formula. The study aimed to highlight the need for population control discussions rather than serve as a serious forecast.
