HOAX: NASA has never published any statement regarding the Earth will be in darkness for three days
Angkasa said that the earth will not experience complete darkness during the phenomena, adding that the earth is securely layered with magnetosphere)which causes the solar storm to be deflected and turns weak before it enters earth.
Angkasa also confirmed that a similar hoax had been circulating in 2012. The same website also claimed that doomsday will occur in Dec, 2012.
