叙述者：讲述了2012年12月21日发生的所谓世界末日事件，以及幸存者对事件的回忆和解读。叙述者描述了天空出现的异常现象，如卫星和太空碎片坠落，白昼出现极光等奇观。之后，叙述者引出了一个关于古代苏美尔圆柱印章的故事，这些印章据说是阿努纳奇人留下的，上面刻有进入虫洞的方法。这些信息被一个名为Majestic 12的组织获取，并结合外星技术制造了一台名为‘窥镜’的机器，这台机器可以扭曲时空，观察过去、现在和未来，甚至可以改变未来。在2012年，这台机器被用来试图改变世界，但结果却导致了灾难。叙述者还讲述了Dan在S4实验室的工作经历，以及他所看到的飞碟和窥镜机器。最后，叙述者揭示了2012年灾难的幕后黑手，以及2030年即将到来的另一个时间线的分裂，人类需要在和平与灾难之间做出选择。 AJ：对Project Looking Glass的故事进行了分析和质疑，指出故事中存在许多矛盾之处，并对讲述者Dan Burish的可信度提出了质疑。AJ列举了Dan Burish的背景信息与故事内容的出入之处，例如其学历、职业和财务状况等，并指出Dan Burish拒绝接受测谎测试。AJ还分析了故事中使用的其他被证伪的故事，例如Chronovisor和Chan Thomas的《亚当与夏娃的故事》，这些都降低了故事的可信度。AJ最后总结道，虽然故事本身难以证实或证伪，但它引发了人们对未来和人类命运的思考。

Shownotes Transcript

You’re not supposed to be alive. 

None of us are. 

About 10 years ago, you woke up to an eerie silence. The power was out. You went to check your phone for news but your phone was dead.

Then you realized, everything was dead. Some kind of blackout, you thought.

You looked out your window, confused. It looked like a normal December morning. Holiday decorations were up, though all the Christmas lights were out.

You saw neighbors also peering through windows and standing on their front porches. Everyone was looking up.

It looked like the stars were falling. Only, they weren’t stars. They were satellites and space debris. It was raining fire. And for the first time in your life, you saw the aurora borealis … in the middle of the day. 

You looked at the calendar. Today's date was supposed to mean something, but before you could remember, everything went black.

It was December 21st, 2012.

The end of the world.
