The scientists working with NASA have proven time and time again that they have a very healthy sense of humor, and the latest picture they decided to make available to the general public further confirms this status quo.

To cut a long story short: those who are still unsure whether or not the world came to an end yesterday can now bid their worries “farewell,” as the picture above, taken by NASA on December 22, 2012, proves that the Earth is still “completely intact.”

“Isn't this a great sight? Our lovely planet, completely intact, taken as a new day began: Dec. 22, 2012. Courtesy of NOAA's GOES 15 satellite over the Pacific Ocean,” reads the message accompanying this picture.

Hopefully, those hiding in the underground or in their bunkers will now agree to once again step out into the light and go about their daily routine.
