Q: Historical futurist scenarios ?

Option Answer Is Correct
1 Every generation has faced its own fears of an unknown future; the historical record of prior end of civilization scenarios is plentiful. Some of these include the Following. Many fictional and non-fictional stories from the era of the Cold War were based on the belief that a nuclear war was inevitable, and that this would result in the destruction of all life on the planet Earth. The Y2K bug was supposed to wreak havoc on computer systems. Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727), who was involved in alchemy and many other things in addition to science and mathematics, studied old texts and surmised that the end of the world would happen no earlier than 2060, although he was reluctant to put an exact date on it. Many mistakenly believe that the Maya civilizations long count calendar ends abruptly on December 21, 2012. This misconception is due to the Maya practice of abbreviating their dates to five decimal places.On monuments where the full date is shown the end of the last creation is said to happen much farther in the future; however, the Mayas did believe that there will be a baktun ending in 2012. A baktun marks the end of a 400 year period and was a significant event on the Maya calendar. In the Aztec calendar, 2012 marks the end of a 26,000 year planetary cycle.This cycle is known as the Great Year and most likely refers to the precession of the equinoxes.
