This article refers to the Doomsday Clock. For Clock Tower Balthazar, see Balthazar Clock Tower incident.


Doomsday Clock, seen here with. 22AK.

Doomsday Clock is symbolic object representing (approximate) time since last global catastrophe. Measured in "Minutes After Midnight," the further hours since midnight, the more time has passed after last cataclysm. Initially (pre-Excession), clock was used to measure the proximity of the proposed global nuclear war or climatic catastrophe. Since then it has been extended to cover the basic space-time failures, significant geological upheavals, and the various levels extinctions.

Currently, most widely accepted Doomsday Clock is published from Xenotemporal Institute Nairobi. This is based, in particular, its proximity to the equator (and therefore, the distance from any of the polar events). This puts us now four minutes after midnight.
