It was tongue in cheek, written to show that naive extrapolation produces absurd results. The date was partly chosen because it was von Foerster's 115th birthday. Global population growth rate peaked in the 1960s and has fallen ever since, so the model was falsified decades ago. Viral coverage strips out the satire."},

The Moon impact, which peaked at 4.3 percent and drew serious debris modeling, was eliminated on March 5, 2026 after JWST observations in late February; it will miss the lunar surface by about 13,200 miles.

Newton's own words: 'This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fancifull men.' He was setting a date before which the world would definitely not end, specifically to shut down date-setters. These were private notes he never published, and he actively opposed public date-setting."},

Marsden raised it in 1992 when perihelion arrived 17 days early. Gary Kronk then found Chinese observations of the same comet from 69 BCE and 188 CE; Marsden confirmed them, and a 2,000-year observation arc showed the orbit is stable with no threat for at least two millennia.
