Busting Out A Hoax: Cosmic Rays From Mars Will Hit Earth

<p><div style="text-align: justify;">
Hoaxes have been part of the satirical world of the Internet ever since. Different hoax had been a global and phenomenal trend ever since. Some are really obviously false while other hoax is almost as near as a fact. Hoax had since then shaped the course of human life in different perspectives everyday.</div>

One hoax news had recently spread these past days and this hoax is about cosmic rays from Mars that will hit Earth. This cosmic rays was rumored in the hoax that can cause high radiation in opened gadgets and it is added to the hoax that everyone mus turn off their gadgets starting 10:30pm up to 3:30am tomorrow. The hoax had spread all over the country thru text and was spammed all over other cellphone users. This hoax had started in late 2010 in the US in which BBC news had posted a <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8465619.stm" target="_blank">news</a> article about it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So what are these cosmic rays? A cosmic ray is a immensely high-energy radiation that originates outside the solar system. There is no confirmed study where cosmic rays come from but researches from NASA states that these cosmic rays come from supernovae, active galactic nuclei, quasars, and gamma-ray bursts. As contrary to the hoax, there is still no confirmed information that heavenly bodies such as planets can create cosmic rays and Earth has a stable atmosphere that can protect its inhabitants from cosmic rays.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My own opinions about this hoax is that this thing is 100% obviously satirical to people who has idea in the field of modern electronics and computers. If we do got caught by the satire news and followed such order, every computer and gadget will be turned off which will also include the vital computers used by radar operators in airports, weather agencies, or even in broadcasting stations. Shutting these down just for that kind of joke would cripple the entire nation in a very disastrous manner. Instead of putting nonsense hoaxes just to get the attention of the people, we should instead use it to spread information on what really cosmic rays are.</div>

The aircraft got lost contact because of the combined bad weather conditions and equipment failure over the northern areas of Egypt. The aircraft entered the Sinai Peninsula (Which is a part of Israeli airspace) without communication and was intercepted by two Israeli Air Force F-4 Phantoms. After the fighter pilots had thoughts that the civilian aircraft's pilot refuse to cooperate with their commands, they shot the aircraft, crashing it and leaving 105 of 113 people on-board dead.

Filipino basketball fans were excited knowing this event of an exhibition game between Gilas Pilipinas and certain NBA Superstars like DeMar Derozan, Kyle Lowry, Tyson Chandler, Brandon Jennings, Damian Lilard and James Harden but all of the great expectations of basketball fans who swarmed to Araneta Coliseum last night, was turned into disappointments and anger as the event was cancelled by organizers in the last minute.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the organizers, as well as to the management of the NBA players, they we're not allowed to play because it will break their contract to the famous basketball association and thus, will get themselves suspended if they try continuing to play on the said exhibition game. The event started last night with basketball drills between the NBA superstars and the Gilas Pilipinas players. However, the drills had sparked confusion to the basketball fans who are waiting to the "must-see" exhibition game. In the end, the Gilas coach Chot Reyes explained everything to the fans that a practice drill will be shown, instead of the expected exhibition game.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Knowing this change in the event, the crowd began booing to the people in the court, somewhat disappointed about the information that there will be no exhibition game that will happen that night. Others had requested a refund since it was known that the tickets ranged from prices P750 up to P23000. Then when the event is wrapping up, disappointed fans swarm the exits of Araneta Coliseum, full of disappointments. Despite the epic-fail event, fans still looked up at the merchandise sold outside the venue. It was also extended to their information that the event on the next day, July 23, is cancelled as well.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A bus fell off a ravine in Bontoc, Mountain Province which led to the deaths of 14 people, including two foreign nationals and the famous comedian, Arvin "Tado" Jimenez, and 20 injured. The bus, owned by GV Florida Transport was traveling for already 12 hours from Sampaloc, Manila and it was 30 minutes away from its destination when the accident happened. The bus company is also known to travel that same route directly from Manila since 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The accident resulted for a prompt of LTFRB to suspend the franchise of the 228 units of GV Florida and putting all of its units to vehicular tests, as well as their drivers for a drug examinations. Another news that followed after the accident is that the plate number of the bus unit that was involved in the accident wasn't registered to GV Florida but to another bus company, Mountain Province Cable Tours. The tragic accident as well prompted the lawmakers to create laws governing the management of bus companies, in order to protect the passengers.</div>
