Soon, on January 23, the expert commission of the journal «Bulletin of Atomic Scientists» The University of Chicago will once again update the time on the Doomsday Clock. This is a scientific magazine project showing the time until midnight, which symbolizes international tension.
Every year, the clock is updated with the number of minutes until midnight, the hour and minute hands are set at certain values, and then this is shown live on the cover and the website of the journal «Bulletin of Atomic Scientists».
The number of minutes until midnight means how much humanity is on the verge of a global, in particular nuclear, catastrophe. It is unknown what time the experts will set this year, but now only 90 seconds are left on the Clock until midnight.
It is worth noting that the Doomsday Clock was first set at 7 minutes before midnight, at 23:53. The project arose on January 23, 1947.
