What happens when the Doomsday Clock strikes Midnight?

The Doomsday Clock will not strike midnight. It is simply a very rough and pessimistic estimate. Alterations are made by guesswork. Should any cataclysm happen it will be far too late for those that alter the clock to do so.


Is there a 12 o clock midnight?

Yes. There is a 12 o'clock midnight and a 12 o'clock noon. Midnight refers to 12 o'clock at night, and noon refers to 12 o'clock in the daytime. The time of day between midnight and noon is AM. The time of day between noon and midnight is PM. Noon and midnight are neither AM nor PM, they are just 12 noon and 12 midnight.


Is midnight or noon am?

"Morning." The abbreviations AM and PM stand for Ante Meridian and Post Meridian, respectively. The terms ante and post mean before and after. The term meridian refers to when the sun is at the middle of its arc across the sky. Nominally the sun is at its meridian at noon. Since it is *at* its meridian this is neither before nor after the meridian. It *is* the meridian. Likewise, midnight is neither 12 AM nor 12 PM. It is equally far from both. It is simply 12 midnight. The military clock is better than the civilian clock for many reasons. One is that eliminates the complexity of specifically accounting for whether a time is before of after midnight. On the military clock noon is read as 1200 hours, and midnight is read as 2400 hours.

Is 12pm midnight or noon?

12PM is commonly used improper terminology. There is no such thing. If you see it in print it is wrong and you may have to use context to determine what the writer meant. The abbreviations AM and PM stand for Ante Meridian and Post Meridian, respectively. The terms ante and post mean before and after.
