If you look at a wide enough area of the sky, the planets will always appear roughly in a straight line because they all lie close to the plane of the Earth's orbit. If you have a look at this thread, you'll find the same thing being discussed and a link to a picture of a phone app.

Gravity does not work like that.

hey, thanks! Yeah I read that page on a previous date. I was just curious because I was on the train yesterday and a gentleman showed me one of those "sky apps" on his phone and it showed all of the planets basically aligned… I am just being a baby I guess haha.

thank you again! :)

hey there,

so I am usually completely rational-minded when it comes to this 2012 stuff. But for some reason one thing sticks in my head. So ~apparently~ when the planets and the sun are aligned with the center of the galaxy this will somehow cause a gravitational shift or some shit which will send us cascading into the black hole in the center of our galaxy.

This feels ripe with scientific inaccuracies yet my fears will not subside. Please debunk this, dear lord.

thank you xx
