Forecasting the End

Genre: Documentary, Weather

Premise: People frequently try to predict when and how the world is going to end, with some projections less plausible than others, but none of those predictions have proven to be accurate to this point. This series takes a more scientific approach to a potential apocalypse, featuring scientists who use computer graphics to illustrate various ``what if?'' scenarios and hypothesize how catastrophic weather events, natural disasters or outer-space phenomena could cause the end of the world. Among the proposed doomsday scenarios are an asteroid colliding with Earth and volcanic activity setting off a series of megatsunamis.
