There is a theory that every 12k years our sun goes pop; a solar micronova that is responsible for periodic worldwide catastrophes and explains the sudden loss of the megafauna world wide 12K years ago and what destroyed the megalithic civilization, including the the ruins of Egypt and South America. The theory says that an electromagnetic wave emanating from the galactic center arrives at our solar system every 12 thousand years. The CIA even classified a book called The Adam and Eve Story by Chan Thomas that forecast these cyclic catastrophes. This could be worth looking into since the magnetic poles are currently moving and the galactic electromagnetic wave may be approaching. Does this happen? If so, when is the next catastrophe due?
