Survived another one!
The author seems to ignore the planetary lineup of 1982 & 82 (and since the outer planets move so slowly, ever 6 or 7 years since then.)
After this book came out we discovered how hot Venus was, and the idea of Global warming was invented, then supplanted the theory of Global Cooling since we are overdue to start sliding back into one. ( )

Written in the 1980's, this book makes the dire prediction that the allignment of our solar system's planets, due on the 5th of May, 2000, will lead to massive geological upheavals including a sudden shift of the Earth's axis, leading to the destruction of much of human civilization. (Luckily, I survived - If there are any other survivors out there, please contact me) ( )

Book description
ON MAY 5 IN THE YEAR 2000, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn will be aligned with the earth for the first time in six thousand years[gee, was 1981 &1986 really that long ago?]ON that day the ice buildup at the South Pole will upset the earth's axis - sending trillions of tons of ice and water sweeping over the surface of our planet.

    ASTONISHING EVIDENCE POINTS TO WORLDWIDE DISASTER IN OUR LIFETIME!

  • The number of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and freakish climate changes are increasing as we approach the year 2000
  • Communities in Stelle, Illinois and Adelphi, Texas have banded together ot develop the technology necessary to airlift 250,ooo people 14 miles above the earth to save themselves from the disaster predicted for May 5, 2000.
  • By the year 2000, the ice mass at the South Pole will increase by more than 6 trillion tons.
  • Bit and pieces of vanished civilizations preserved in museums throughout the world, evidence of entire forests fossilized instantly, and animals quick-frozen and preserved for millennia prove that a sudden, momentous change in the earth's surface occurred in the past
  • An extensive study of the Great Pyramid reveals a mathematical message of warning built into the structure by survivors of a similar catastrophe 6,000 years ago. [4,000 BC]

Richard Noone quotes Immanuel Velikovsky and Albert Einstein, interviews geologists, archaeologists, and climatologists, and presents 200 charts, maps, drawings, and photographs as he builds a case that confirms the doomsday prophecies of Nostradamus.
As the ice slowy accumulates at the 'South Pole, mankind must study the facts ... or face extinction. Time is running out!
