Twenty-Mile Wide Piece of a Huge Comet Poses a "Clear and Present" Danger to 'All Life on Earth (+Video)

Near the end of the last Ice Age 12,800 years ago, a giant comet that had entered the solar system from deep space thousands of years earlier, broke into multiple fragments.

Astronomers believe that a 20-mile wide dark fragment of the original giant comet remains hidden within the debris stream and poses a clear and present danger to all life on Earth.

“This unique complex of debris is undoubtedly the greatest collision hazard facing the Earth at the present time.” - Victor Clube and Bill Napier -

British astronomers B. Napier and V. Clube suggest that the giant progenitor comet  that  breakup and rain down upon the planet - literally a cataract of fire,  is the well known today comet Encke.

The Tunguska event of 1908, probably caused by the impact of a cometary body, has also been postulated by Czechoslovakian astronomer Ľubor Kresák as a fragment of Comet Encke.

Comet Encke is believed to be the originator of several related meteor showers known as the Taurids (which are encountered as the Northern and Southern Taurids across November, and the Beta Taurids in late June and early July)

A series of papers in geophysics and geological journals have been bringing forward evidence that the Earth was indeed hit by a comet 12,800 years ago.

Former journalist Graham Hancock suggests in his latest work Magicians of the Gods, to have discovered evidence that a huge chunk of flaming rock up to 30kms wide, hidden in a comet stream, could hit Earth with devastating effects in the near future.
“The debris stream of the comet is still on an orbit that crosses the orbit of the Earth.” 

Mr Hancock, says it will prove “beyond reasonable doubt” that a sophisticated civilisation was all but wiped off the face of the our planet by chunks of the same comet between 11,600 and 12,800 years ago.

Mr Hancock, alarmingly, claims research shows Earth could again pass through the same section of the trail of comet Encke, containing the up to 20-mile wide monster in 2030.

“The evidence revealed in this book shows beyond reasonable doubt that an advanced civilisation that flourished during the Ice Age was destroyed in the global cataclysms.”

He alleges that mankind was forced to start again as primitive.

But claims there were some survivors of the advanced race, known to later more primitive cultures by names such as ‘the Sages’, ‘the Magicians’, ‘the Shining Ones’, and ‘the Mystery Teachers of Heaven’. 

He believes they travelled the world in ships trying to keep the spark of civilisation burning by teaching mathematics, astronomy and science.
