Conclusion

At present, the things pertaining to different aspects of the phenomenon known as the "New Millennium Approaching Syndrome" (NMAS) attracts more and more attention. Even academic science does not avoid this theme. Thus, the International Conference SPE-94 devoted to scientific problems of protecting the Earth from collision with Dangerous Space Objects (DSO) had accepted the resolution that stated the necessity to conduct appropriate studies. Rise in the rate of natural calamities as well, also worries both scientists and statesmen.

This study and some other researches being closely correlated with physical observations (e.g. Solar activity influence over the large scale systems [4,8]) allow us to state that there exists grounds to consider the phenomenon of NMAS seriously from an external, or a synchronistic viewpoint, as well.

Firstly, because even now, in the last years of the XX century, the axis of Tropical Zodiac (viz. the equinox line) scans a very important area [5] of the Celestial sphere, through which absolutely new influences could overshadow the Earth.

Secondly, the Solar activity (SA) is now starting to grow; and apart from being a mighty factor of Space influence [4] on the whole, it performs a specific function of evolutionary Space-Clock [6], since via the Golden Section rhythms the 11-year Solar activity cycles define and synchronize a lot of basic periods in the Earth's phenomena [op.cit.] within the range of seconds to million years.

Thirdly, in compliance with their manifestations, the comets could be likened to Solar activity, thus making the sequence Hyakutake - Hale-Bopp - Solar activity a "Chain reaction" which leads to widening and intensifying of the forthcoming Solar activity influence.

Therefore, the approaching phase of growth of the Solar activity might be followed by many very special manifestations, and, maybe, these could touch us more seriously, than the DSOs, should the Solar activity and comet synchronism be taken into account. From this point of view, the reply to the title of this booklet is rather to be in the affirmative. November, 1997
