Hoax Alert: Cosmic Rays from Mars Entering Earth
There have been rumors circulating that cosmic rays from Mars are entering Earth tonight so we need to switch off our phones, or put them away from us.
Tonight 12:30 am to 3:30 am cosmo rays entering earth from mars. So switch off your mobile at night. Don’t keep your cell with you & put it away while you are sleeping because they are too much dangerous rays: NASA informs BBC NEWS. Pls spread this news.
The message above is clearly nothing more than just another HOAX. I don’t know why people are circulating panic messages such as this to disturb the lives of other people. From what I have noticed, this message has been circulating since 2008 and it suddenly reappeared today, 6 April 2012. I also received text messages containing this false information and saw similar Facebook posts.
I did my own research and I have found no credible reports that confirm the claims in the warning message. There are no references to such a threat listed on credible scientific websites. I also checked the NASA and BBC news today to see if they have posted something like this. Fortunately, both have never said such a thing and will never probably produce a similar baseless statement.
Despite the claim in the message, there are several reasons to say that this information is untrue.
First, Mars could not emit harmful radiation because it is not a star. Cosmic rays are emitted by stars. i.e bodies that are undergoing nuclear reactions that is fusion (as occurs in our sun) or fission (as occurs in nuclear reactors). Mars is neither. It is a planet that just reflects sunlight. It cannot emit cosmic radiation.
Next, with regards to these rays the earth’s atmosphere is capable of taking care of them so no need to worry. The magnetosphere absorbs and protects us from the sun’s harmful radiation. Whatever remains is too feeble to affect any thing as far as earth.
Another thing is that we are actually hit by cosmic rays every day — all day (and night too). If it was going to hurt your cell, then it would have already fried it by now.
Sometimes magnetic storms on the sun will fry the electronics of satellites in orbit, and may also blow out the power grid in high latitudes near the Earth’s magnetic poles, but other than static, I don’t see what it might do to your cell phones.
So, to anyone who will receive this kind of message, please think it over and help educate others. 🙂 Spreading dubious and unsubstantiated warnings such as this is counterproductive and is unlikely to help anyone.
Learn more about cosmic rays from this NASA website.
only for cellphone?? not other gadgets?

so let it come that will be a fantastic 4 theory 🙂
September 15, 2014 at 3:15 pm
I don’t know the agenda of these people running such hoax… But it has again resurfaced just last night, my friend sent the text message to me and all of the folks where I live, and most of them, specially my friend’s kid brother, got really concerned and scared… So I gave a bit of lecture on space science, from the little knowledge I have, and showed clips from a documentary… Good thing it gave them a bit of assurance that nothing wrong is going to happen… And from MARS? Really? Maybe if it exploded, then it might emit those so called cosmic rays…. tskkkk…

How are pple benefiting from such?
September 14, 2014 at 5:26 pm
Haha! Thanks. I don’t know who has the time to create such hoax messages and then forward it to others.
The other innocent people who doesn’t know if it’s true or not, just forward it to help others.
Such a waste of time.
August 28, 2014 at 10:04 pm
Something tells me this might not be true for today but it may come when we least expect it. Never ignore such cus this could be to test our faith. Pls let us pray always.
August 9, 2014 at 1:17 pm
There are no such things as, the planet emitts cosmetic/cosmo ray,instead they do but the magnetosphere eradicates the hamful cosmo rays entering the earth, the whole things taks place in the stars and the sun because it it acumulates a vast and varying gases, so keep calmn ain’t nothing is goina happen to you8-).
August 7, 2014 at 1:03 am
Thanx this sound better n um not gonna switch off my fone for this.
August 6, 2014 at 4:38 am
Thank you for the info on the hoax. Currently it is in circulation in Malaysia – just got the message from my sis – after checking out your blog I informed her about it. Thanks!

Reblogged this on (◡‿◡✿) and commented:
In the off chance that anyone sees this today, this person succinctly explains WHY the message circulating AGAIN today regarding alleged cosmic rays from Mars is TOTALLY FAKE. Please pass THIS!
May 13, 2014 at 8:10 pm
Lol…. I can only say that sometimes people are dubious.. Is 2014.. 6th May as I’m typing this.. I just got the same message.. Via a whatsapp chat group.. Maybe you can draw a chart and see how ppl are spreading rumors.. Firstly, emails, then SMS, I sure FB post, now whatsapp as we gave access to smart phones.., going to be such an interesting project

why these guys are spreading these rumors… Social network spread this news…
March 14, 2014 at 6:15 pm
Why is this “cosmic ray” only affect phones what about the other gadgets.
and;
how could common radiation of the spreading of the parts of atoms affect this/these device/s (phone).
cosmic ray is just like the radiation of an X-ray

This is interesting and educative!! Its good the general public get some of such information so as not to fall prey to any kind of baseless rumours!!
March 12, 2014 at 4:26 am
I knew this was a hoax the moment I read it.
But thanks to you I am going to use this blog post as a reference for anyone who sends it to me 🙂
People need more general information about our beautiful universe.

NIGERIA!, MY COUNTRY, WHAT IS HAPENING TO OUR EDUCATION SECTOR? Hawkers submerge the nation now in place of students( our nation’s future hope), one reason observed; some of the schools handed back to the churches politically by governments are now victim of doom and unless they take them back from the ‘BOKO HARAMISTS’ so called churches. The churches are more greedy now than any other group you can think of. Let us look into these schools and their managers or managements before they creple our nation for selfish reasons. The so called principals/teachers chose to receive their salaries from the management and the students’ parents and guidiance. Take Stape or else GOD WILL INTERVAIN against the church.

PEOPLE OF GOD, WORLD WIDE: WHERE ARE WE HEADING TO?, WHY MUST WE USE TARORISM TO EXPRESS OUR GRIEVANCE IN PLACE OF DAILOGUE?
October 4, 2013 at 7:27 am
Well, well, well. If I receive one, similar messages above. Then, I know how to react since you proved that was hoax. So Mars cosmic rays exist but not on our phones. The possibility that may come to reality if me and my phone is both on the outer space. You know, I’m dreaming about being an austronaut one day.
May 11, 2013 at 9:44 pm
read again! Mars is NOT a star, it will never in forever emit cosmic rays..
September 18, 2014 at 8:25 pm
Ophsss!Are you people gone nuts?

No… 😉 coz itz 2014
September 18, 2014 at 12:57 pm
I think these fake messages are part of a big survey or test to see how far or how big of a lie can be made and spread all over the world even though there is no fact attached to it, other than BBC and NASA without even an attachment to either of their sites. It’s really scary what kind of rubbish people will actually believe without even questioning. I wonder what kind of sick organization is behind this.
November 28, 2012 at 9:18 pm

August 17, 2012 at 7:24 pm
Maybe the person circulating the message is planning something to someone and the person is thinking if that someone turned off his phone last night, then he/she wouldn’t have a chance to ask for help or delay its chances because kelangan pa nia i-turn on celphone niya.
Anyway, I knew the news to be hoax the moment the news was passed on to me. The person who originated the news is pathetic. Must be another Twilight fan.
August 17, 2012 at 10:12 am
I really appreciate dis cos it has help us diff aspects of our lyfs wc re educatnal wise,health wise n so on,d pple doin dis tins re nt really helpin matas in dis country rada it coses more disgrace 2 our luvly country Nigeria

Oh Nija people!! If u dont hav anytin 2 do or say slep in ur house and count ur selingbord stop intimedating others with fals rumors.
August 17, 2012 at 6:00 am
I doubted the news cuz i hv neva read or heard dt d mars release any rays. So i bluntly ignored d message….tnx 4 xplainin more nd giving hope 4 wat i knw z rite
August 17, 2012 at 5:55 am
Rumours have been a Nigerians sentimental . Thanks for your help
August 17, 2012 at 4:03 am
I so much believe dat this rumour is untrue,it is spread by people who dont have other people’s interest at heart.
August 17, 2012 at 3:58 am
…..well i guess we all are fooled den, cos i not only switch off my mobilephone but send d mssg 2 as much pple as i can, may it will be a lesson 2 make research b4 accepting it and den spread it, well 10ks 4 info anyway…..
August 17, 2012 at 3:47 am
This is nothing but a theoritical error. The person putting such an informatioin on net is perplexed, and am sure such a person is a non-academic student. How on earth can the mars emit cosmic rays. The mars is neither a star nor a nuclear reactor, so it cant emit any type of ray. Also the cosmic hardly enter earth. This is because the mixtures of protective gases up there in the stratosphere is much…..are we talking of the magnetosphere or the ozone or the others…so no how the cosmic rays will have an effect on us. Thanks
August 17, 2012 at 3:03 am
hmmm! i wonder y people accepted it! though i got the news around 9pm that i should switch off my phone i didn’t want to but i did at last. i regretted obeying the info.
August 16, 2012 at 11:39 pm
Thanks for a precise explanation. I agree that this forwarded message is for business.
August 16, 2012 at 11:34 pm
I was surprised when I got this message yesterday night 15/8/12 that all should switch off phone to prevent self from cosmo rays trying to enter the earth from Mars according to BBC news as they said. I spent a lot to send the message to many of my members. But getting to the net this morning through my google search proved it’s a lie. People are teribble.
August 16, 2012 at 9:34 pm
Nice menhhh
When I received the message I was skeptical about it simply bcos BBC can not just publish such thgs without critical explanation of the reason why we to switch off our cellphone baselessly
However,I appreciate ur clear description concerning the spurious information over a nite wtout a substantial base.Cheers
August 16, 2012 at 9:19 pm

August 16, 2012 at 9:05 pm
Thanks to the scientific researchers for a job well done. I got this message two day a go and was ask to spread the news to prevent damage. I ignored the news knowing inside me that can never take place. Please fake rumour spreader should please try and stop spearding nonse rumours that is not true.

tanx 4 dis msg. I actually switch off my phone n my husband’s phone and took them far 4rm us even when d alarm was ringing n was told 2 off it, i could’nt go near 4 fear. Tanx once again.
August 16, 2012 at 5:37 pm
Thank God it had actually been confirmed that d issue of cosmic ray is false i believed it at first until i google it where i was told it all lies.I want to implore people to confirm information first before spreading it cos it makes some one like to panic.Thanks for the confirmation
August 16, 2012 at 5:37 pm
Very educating.
August 16, 2012 at 5:22 pm
i dont know what wrong with niger people,every day rumor.last month dont scratch with your finger last week dont wear red cloth today cosmic rays will enter the earth i dont know tomorrow rumor may be will should not wear cloth.
August 16, 2012 at 5:17 pm
Thanks alot for this information ,
August 16, 2012 at 5:06 pm
Tnks for the light you threw to our senses its really very helpful. I never knew that the sun could be this danderous if not for the body that has been preventing it from harming us. But God is so wonderful and merciful. For the cosmic ray, everyone would have been dead. Thnks
August 16, 2012 at 5:03 pm
Its just so unfortunate why people perish becos they lack information…if mars emits this cosmic rays,every living things on this earth will perish bcos the magnetosphere plays a. Greater role on the earths clux,so it will be wise on how people carry out their fake rumors to achieve their dirty attitudes.
August 16, 2012 at 4:33 pm

There is repetation of d above message warning.yesterday 15 august 2012.is dis one true?
August 16, 2012 at 3:40 pm
But while are people spreading false information of elements like that.I think that’s unfair
August 16, 2012 at 3:38 pm
Why do people like to scare there follow human mean with expensive rumore, please before spreading any news make sure if it is true.
August 16, 2012 at 3:23 pm
Well,I do not blame people with such myopic views and thoughts.Not that I am boasting,but I think because of my science orientation,I did not join the panic and I advised people around me that t is just a fallacy……..
August 16, 2012 at 3:23 pm
Thank you for the enlightenment. People tend to enjoy sending panic messages just for the fun of it.
August 16, 2012 at 3:17 pm
Thnx for the enlightenment,I so much appreciate.

Do u think dis is real for me I don’t think so
August 16, 2012 at 3:05 pm
I think such rumours are normal for this time because the Bible had forseen it. I think we in the endtime. So we should all begin to examine ourselves.
August 16, 2012 at 2:57 pm
From the foregoing among others, it is obvious that spreading false rumours capable of inducing fears and making peoples’ hearts unsettled is a satanic strategy to deprive people of inner peace and serenity. Lets stop cooperating with satan in his three fold mission. Thanks for your enlightenment.
August 16, 2012 at 2:56 pm
In fact i even slept closer to my cell phone than ever when i got 3 messages of the like beeping my phone almost simultaneously. Mouths were created to talk so rumours will never end. Thanks for the elucidation.
August 16, 2012 at 2:51 pm
Thank God for google, because not all of us can be fool again. I also received the text message from a concern brother on 15/08/12 although i’ve even slept off , only to wake up around 2:50am and saw the message. I just ignore it and search the web for the meaning in the morning. Only to stumble on this page which educate me more on the issue.

I believe all that was just a Hoax to scare people out of their wits. Really, earth can paralyse harmful radiation from the sun which is also a star. Mars is not a star and therefore cannot emit Cosmic rays….so stop the rumours but play safe tonight.
August 16, 2012 at 2:16 pm
when i recieve this message,i don’t even care about anything called cosmic ray,I was even browsing that night i don’t even care about that for now

My dear bothers & sisters, wat do we expect wen unemployment makes pple behaviour anyhow.it quiet unfortunate. Najia where r we heading 2???????
August 16, 2012 at 12:38 pm
Actually we all knew that comic ray is real and i think the government most have to do something about it so is not just a rumor i got the information last night but i never off my cell phone but nothing happend so no cos for alarm
August 16, 2012 at 12:36 pm
But our network provider let us know that before a call go to another fone the call will appear on the system,why they can’t stop that kind rubish?even if the news is real is suppose to come from our service provider,I use this time to say those behind the rumour will suffer unrest in there live Amen
I now realise the meaning of the sign we use to hear when I was kid that the 666 mark will appear in our hands the sign is our mobile fones since will started using fones in this nation or in the world rather we always hear panic news.thanks
August 16, 2012 at 12:19 pm
The best way to stop these kind of messages that could lead to many premature dealth is ” when govt frown at any of such”. The commucation industries should fetch out anyone being d 1st 2 compose such a deadly message that lack merit. But unfortunately, since comm industry on d other hand are making billions of naira within just few minute via d messages, they dont care about it. Who knows weda they have hands in it? My fellow 9ja let’s wise up nd stop enriching these 419s. Simply igore any1 requsting u 2 post others message dat u know notin about. Be wise!

Thank you for a job well done. A close relation was so excited and so concerned about me that he sent me that message last night 15/08/12, asking me to pass the message to others. I simply ignored it for the same reasons you state here. I wonder why humans take pleasure in misinforming the world.
August 16, 2012 at 11:37 am
You… I like you…
August 16, 2012 at 11:33 am
I don’t know why some stupid people love to carry fake news all about.if you don’t have work why can’t you jus look for a sleeping pills and use…cosmic ray ko cosmus ban ni…hssssss
August 16, 2012 at 11:13 am
I believe the originator of the rumour about cosmic rays hitting the atmosphere are not only carlous but are also unreasonable.The information mostly affect the less developed country who are not only suffering from financial and abject poverty but also lack of technological information. These people indirectly has violently violate the Right of those that has lost a huge sum of money to this scandalous information by switching off their phones and those who are ignorantly helping spreading the rumour vesatiosly created by these faceless figure by using their hard earned money in sending text messages to their loved ones. The worst part of it is that our government are not bothered or they are victim too.Imagine how do you explain making a call to the Minister of Technology between the period specified by these nefarious character just to know he had actually switch off his own phone for fear of cosmic rays .
August 16, 2012 at 11:09 am
Its quiet disgusting that unconfirmed rumors can be carried by thousands of people.
I receive calls from different part of the state warning not power on mobile phones at the stipulated time 12:30 to 03:30 based on the so called COSMIC RAYS.
Though I didn’t sleep, rather I was awake to see what is going to happen and how its going to affect the mobile may be it will gut fire or what. But its quite unfortunate that we don’t carry out research before publicizing any information on air via electronic whatever.
But thanks to the scientist researcher who made us to understand what cosmic rays is all about.
My beloved brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Cheers…………..

August 16, 2012 at 10:33 am
It’s really amazing how someone could start such rumours without giving us scientific basis. Thanks for this clarification.
August 16, 2012 at 9:53 am
SHINE YOUR EYES!
MTN & their other telecom cohorts have devised a means 2 exploit unsuspecting public via ”send-2-others” sms.
This is not the only rumor circulating right now; there are others. This is only attracting concern because it’s life-threatening.
If you are wise,delete or ignore such messages when they come.

Got the text from PHC and kept wondering how dreaded the rays might be from a planet- which is not even an illuminous body, i kept googlin for more info cos there is no BBC news of sort.

August 16, 2012 at 6:29 am
The rumour making the rounds about the possibility of cosmic rays reaching planet earth between 12:30am and 3:30am today is a news that should be rejected by all in all totality. Ask yourself these few questions and attempt to answer them: (1) Is Mars a planet or a star? (2) What is the function of the magnetosphere? The answers to these questions proves beyond doubt that this rumour is not true. This is because cosmic rays are emitted ONLY by stars and Mars is not a star but a planet meaning therefore that it CANNOT emit cosmic rays. Planet Mars only radiates the sun’s says, it DOES NOT and CANNOT emit cosmic rays. Secondly, even if Mars emits cosmic rays like the stars do, the magnetosphere is there to stop the rays from reaching earth in any significant amount. The originators of this rumour must have forgotten that cosmic rays are regular ‘visitor’ to earth but that there intensity is always been significantly reduced before reaching earth. I think this is one strategy by telecom service providers to sell out there bandwidth

I really think this cosmic ray is happening tonite, but i checked some websites which said cosmic rays are only emmited from the stars and not from mars cause mars is just a planet that reflets sunlight and cannot emit cosmic radiation. Also we are hitted by cosmic radiation everyday so if it causes any harm it would have happened a long time ago. But it is good 2 b cautious so switch off ur phones. Thanks.

August 16, 2012 at 5:54 am
Chei, funny enough I’ve sent the msg round b/4 investigating. Checked on BBC nothing of such news, until i googled it. This is a wake up call to nigerians. Research plays an important role in human existence n development.

why ar people spreading rumors like anything, this is not good. So this message has been here since april 7 and just blotting out now. Oga gan o. God will save us. Jesus is coming soon accept him today, tommorow might be too late
August 16, 2012 at 5:53 am
Hmm! You know what guys, is always good at times to be smart. But come to think of it in another area of concentration could this be a secret work from God? That was intentionally set to put people in some kind of ah test to show and tell that his capable of doing things that we though are not posible. For all he owns and created the planets so he can desired to give any of them life and ability to do and undo This is wired. Climate changes rapidly, global warming so high. So we should expect somefing freaky than mars emitting COSMIC RAY or cosmetic rays. Well i should add here that (…this same ray we talking about here is the same we traditionalist rap ourself up with in meditation as the journey to the outer space “cosmic realm” into the great universe. So this ray is also like energy to us when converted properly… ) Now when “END TIME” as set on, alot of things are happening like micro-chips that have to be implemented in the fore head or hand before one could be able to buy and sell, please what this all about and why chip(666) on our head before exchanges. Men! am sucked and stuck in america says no immigrant or migraters are allowed to be out of there country without the mark(666) i mean micro-chip sorry to name. So please i need more enlightenment on this guy. Sorry for change of discussion we are still on the same matter all is ah Sighs!!!

August 16, 2012 at 5:46 am
This rumour is being spread by disgruntled elements. The rumour which started since 2008 is baseless as there is no material facts contained in it. We have taken cognizance of the fact that there is global climate change but it has nothing to do with rays from mars entering the earth.
August 16, 2012 at 5:46 am
D earth’s will take care of d cosmic coming 4rw mars.

August 16, 2012 at 5:42 am
It’s really annoyig when you not only see such on twitter,facebook,BBM,Whatsapp or a blog,but receive text messages from series of people on this. I have been getting messages of such but i got pissed tonight when i got yet another message of such and that pushed me to search the internet where i stumbled on this write up. I have never bothered myself with such a thing like this,i get the messages and i delete instantly…i just couldnt help my curiosity tonight. Thanks for education,big ups to you. Cheers
August 16, 2012 at 5:42 am
I still do not know why some people intentionally kill their conscience by sending evil messages.I think d easy access to informations dessemination makes some jobless n children of Lucifer behave subnormally.Faith in Jesus makes believers unshakables.SHALOM
August 16, 2012 at 5:42 am
God bless you and deal whoever fabricated this rumour
August 16, 2012 at 5:38 am
Its might right but i don’t 100% agreed. It just a rumours ni jare!
August 16, 2012 at 5:38 am
people should stop paying attension to such fallacies.cosmic rays has been in existence & will not harm any body on earth.please stop increasing people’s BP….chijioke-ESUT
August 16, 2012 at 5:35 am
Some people who didn’t even watch their state news on tv will be spreading rumours of what they know nothing about which is not suppose to be so
August 16, 2012 at 5:34 am

August 16, 2012 at 5:30 am
Why should people carry such rumours about. Thanks to google for reviling the truth and putting our mind at ease.
August 16, 2012 at 5:28 am
Instead of atmosphere of panic and fear while can’t we result to prayer , I know most of us never do night vigil , here is time to humble, pray and seek the face of God , forgiveness of sins . Instead spreading dubious and fearful message about ( either true or not I don’t know) cosmic rays ,let share the message of kingdom of God . It’s certain that Jesus Christ is coming back again . Are u ready , let pray tonight as that God wash us clean by your blood and make us worthy to enter your kingdom , have mercy on us , O Lord , in Jesus Christ name, Amen .Let come up higher tonight in prayer and holiness and obedient to God now and forever.

In every atom of rumour-check well,look well-u must see a little truth out of it,for me and my household-we must switch off our phones for our dear lives,it has no duplicate.
August 16, 2012 at 5:27 am
Dis news is not geniune they are just trying 2 control d rate of chatting on net tonight and tomorow
August 16, 2012 at 5:26 am
WHETHER TRUE OF FALSE,JUST OFF UR PHONE,PREVENTION S BETTER THAN CURE.BUT WHY DO WE SPREAD RUMOUR
August 16, 2012 at 5:26 am
This same message was sent today verbatim. It is a scam. Too bad!
August 16, 2012 at 5:24 am
These people supposed to have gone through series of researches before posting this kind of message. Please stop confusing people.
August 16, 2012 at 5:21 am
Is it true that we most off öμґ cell phone before going to bed?
August 16, 2012 at 5:20 am
i feel so light now that i know the truth. Nigerians tend to be their brother’s keeper in worthless circumstacess like this, but not in sacrifice.
August 16, 2012 at 5:19 am
Good
August 16, 2012 at 5:19 am
Let us stop foolinp ourselves,we are reciving cosmic rays every 24hours.
August 16, 2012 at 5:17 am
This is educative
August 16, 2012 at 5:17 am
this rumor is senseless to a geologist whth peripheral knowlgde of d* universe creation, stars n galaxies. Tnx 4d 4da clarification
August 16, 2012 at 5:16 am
oh! God have mercy on us…..what is the meaning of all dis nonse…. since 2O08…oh!!!GOD……
August 16, 2012 at 5:15 am
When i got d message, i hardly believe it too because i was wondering how a planet(not even d closest one to the sun) can emit rays. But thanks for the above enlightment.
But that was just an act of being a “computer professional” to put the life of a fellow man in jeopardy. Thanks.
August 16, 2012 at 5:15 am
This same text is out now 2day 15 August 2012. Is it true
August 16, 2012 at 5:14 am
This MTN free sms is gettn out of hand… Bt those who knw their God shal b strng and do exploit.
August 16, 2012 at 5:13 am
a complete rumour spreading by lack of scientifics knowledge.
Cosmics rays are never emited by planet rather by stars.
Just discard the message if its pass to u
August 16, 2012 at 5:12 am
a complete rumour
August 16, 2012 at 5:09 am
is dis anoda misconception about cosmic rays or what?i dont just get it,hw could this easily affect we humans talkless of our cell phone.
August 16, 2012 at 5:06 am
This is a world wide rumour and it affects the people as a whole. Making them to start asking questions that they never intend asking. If this is true, why would magnetosphere be there? Because we are been made to understand that this MAGNETOSPHERE protects the EARTH from a harmful radiation from the sun. If there has not been any OZONE LAYER the Earth would have been suffering the heat from the sun. So , i strongly believe that the Earth will suffer no harm from this COSMIC RAYS and is a false rumour to say that the earth will undergo such. There by causing people to panic for their lives. With no doubt in me, i believe what the earth can undergo and not such like COSMIC RAYS.
August 16, 2012 at 5:04 am
an idle man or wemen are satan ‘s medium of information. Let us not panic.
August 16, 2012 at 5:04 am
What can the cosmic rays probably do?

It is funny how some Nigerians don’t think before doing things.
I suspect BULK SMS is really cheap to the extent that rumors are been sent anyhow.
The first thing was don’t wear RED, and now its COSMIC.
BTW, thanks to this article posted, as I now know its a Huge rumour, cos I even searched through BBC and nothing of such.

April 19, 2012 at 3:37 pm
Hi Ronald. Please read the article again. It says that, “…with regards to these [cosmic] rays the earth’s atmosphere is capable of taking care of them so no need to worry. The magnetosphere absorbs and protects us from the sun’s harmful radiation. Whatever remains is too feeble to affect any thing as far as earth.”
April 19, 2012 at 4:38 pm
Hi oh twoz a small misunderstanding…i nw understand the point ,thanx 4 the explanation.
April 20, 2012 at 7:02 pm
I was so tense. My life was jux in the edge of termination,so i thought,and i was almost breaking my cell to pieces. Kudos google-guys. I thought t was only in Kenya.

phew! This site is GREAT! I saw such posts on fb yesterday. I actually switched off my phone. Then today I got a txt sayin the same! I decided to google that to check the actual date when it was to happen and….I found this. Gotta share this!
April 19, 2012 at 5:21 am
That wz a horrible scare!
April 19, 2012 at 5:06 am
Its not good to ignore things and since it dont cost one switching off their phone i would advice them to do so,you never know what might happen so its good to be prepared always.
April 19, 2012 at 4:56 am
What I don’t understand is why it gained any credence to begin with…I mean really? Rays from mars…affecting only cell phones at a specific time…which will cause cancer…Really?

It’s funny how people can fuel such untrue information and inflict fear all over as if they were philosophers. Thank God 4 this site
April 19, 2012 at 3:58 am
I have tried to convince my friend in vain. I use my phone as my alarm and won’t switch it off. She is so worried about my safety now; no amount of information can convince her. She is hell scared!
April 19, 2012 at 3:50 am
Awsome
April 19, 2012 at 3:47 am
I was convinced by ma colegs that the nws is tru. Bt I knw no planet can emit such rays apart from the lst planets wich we hav vry litl knowledge abt. ppl shuld share real things which they r sure of.
April 19, 2012 at 3:43 am
That was very ineformative. just got the text. i take time to believe such things
April 19, 2012 at 3:33 am
Very serious
April 19, 2012 at 3:20 am

April 19, 2012 at 3:07 am
It’s good to have such information rite at hand so as to neutralize such hoax texts like the one i got dayz after it waz alleged cosmic rays would fry ma phone n myself. I wish the site had options of sharing the information on social sites like twitter n facebook

April 19, 2012 at 1:36 am

April 20, 2012 at 9:23 pm

its true or not
April 7, 2012 at 10:31 pm
And yeah, upon reading the chain messages it did reek of spam. Dunno much about cosmic rays tbh but from the tone and body of the message it’s an obvious sham scheme.
April 7, 2012 at 9:55 pm
‘Tis actually older than dirt; similar chain messages have been circulating since 2008:
