Exclusive: NASA denies report on 15-days darkness

Exclusive@ITRealms:

The United States (US) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has denied confirmation of a 15-day straight darkness in the month of November 2015, ITRealms can authoritatively report.

NASA told ITRealms that no such confirmation was earlier issued to anybody of such darkness prediction, insisting that the report being peddled by some online platforms was not entirely correct.

ITRealms recalls that on July 14, 2015, a web site known as Newswatch33 published an article titled “NASA Confirms Earth Will Experience 15 Days of Complete Darkness in November 2015,” and claimed that NASA has confirmed that the Earth will experience 15 days of total darkness between November 15 and November 29, 2015. 

“The event, according to NASA, hasn’t occurred in over 1 Million years.

“Astronomers from NASA have indicated that the world will remain in complete darkness starting on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at 3 a.m. and will end on Monday, November 30, 2015 at 4:15 p.m. 

“According to officials, the “November Black Out” event will be caused by another astronomical event between Venus and Jupiter. 

“Charles Bolden, who was appointed to head of NASA by President Obama, issued a 1000 page document explaining the event to the White House.

“While Charles Bolden is a real NASA official, the Newswatch33 web site is not a legitimate news outlet. Newswatch33 is a fake news site began darkening the doorstep of social media networks shortly after the nearly identical NewsWatch28 fake news site shut down in mid-2015. “Moreover, the “15 days of darkness” yarn was lifted from an older (debunked) viral rumor that has been around the online block several times before. 

“Newswatch33 has hoaxed social media users a number of times since its inception, falsely claiming that supporters raised $4 million for the defense of Charleston shooting suspect Dylann Roof, that a girl was electrocuted by her iPhone’s earbuds, that Jay-Z and Beyonce purchased the rights to the Confederate flag, and that the federal government had impregnated inexpensive cigars with listening devices.

But responding to ITRealms exclusive inquiries, NASA through the media earth science officer Mr. Stephen Cole, said that the report was not accurate.

“NASA has not stated there will be any long periods of darkness,” he asserted.

NASA's vision, ITRealms recollects, is to “reach for new heights and reveal the unknown so that what we do and learn will benefit all humankind.”
