NASA has officially refuted a chilling theory that the Earth will lose gravity on August 12 at 14:33GMT for seven seconds, as claimed by conspiracy theorists under the name ‘Project Anchor’. The theory gained traction on social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter, with some suggesting it could lead to 60 million deaths. However, NASA clarified that Earth’s gravity is determined by its mass and losing gravity would require a change in the Earth’s mass.
This debunked theory is not the only alarming prediction for 2026, with some turning to Nostradamus for insights. While the philosopher did not specifically predict events for this year, interpretations of his texts have led to speculations about potential events, such as the assassination of a prominent figure or military upheavals. Despite claims linking certain prophecies to current events like conflicts in the South China Sea, no confirmations have been made.
