#Gravitas August 12 will bring a rare cosmic line-up that has sparked wild doomsday theories online. The first event is a total solar eclipse, followed by the Perseid meteor shower. According to NASA, it is considered the best meteor shower of the year. Furthermore, Mercury, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will appear stretched across the sky in a rare planetary parade. 


Trinity of cosmic events send ominous warning to the world 

An oil production vessel having the capacity to carry up to 2 million barrels of oil exploded off the coast of Nigeria with 10 crew members on board.

According to reports, the Trinity Spirit blew up on early Wednesday at the Ukpokiti oil field off Nigeria’s coast, near the Escravos terminal close to the Niger delta.

A video of the dramatic incident went viral on social media purportedly showing the ship on fire as it sinks into the sea, with thick black smoke billowing into the sky.

The vessel is a floating production storage vessel (FPSO), owned by Nigeria's Shebah Exploration &amp; Production Company Ltd (SEPCOL).

In a statement on Thursday, SEPCOL said that flames had engulfed the Trinity Spirit floating production, storage and offloading vessel following the blast.

“But we can confirm that there were 10 crewmen onboard the vessel prior to the incident and we are prioritising investigations with respect to their safety and security,” SEPCOL Chief Executive Ikemefuna Okafor said in the statement.

The statement however did not give additional duties on the casualties, or the quantity of oil spilt into the sea.

The Nigerian government has described the impact of the spill as being “like Hiroshima”, with the leaking oil causing the death of marine life and damage to mangroves and waterways.

The explosion of the Trinity Spirit is reportedly the fourth major oil spill this year, after disasters in Peru, Ecuador and Thailand.

Nigeria is the 15th biggest oil-producing country in the world, producing more than 1.9m barrels a day, according to 2016 figures.

Watch: Oil vessel capable of carrying 2 million barrels explodes off Nigeria coast

It’s been 18 years since we saw Neo ‘The One’ save humanity from robots in a sci-fi world where we’ve been enslaved by the machines and we no longer know the difference between reality and illusion! I haven’t told you anything new until now and you’ll feel the same after watching the first half an hour running time of the recently released film ‘The Matrix Resurrections’.&nbsp;

Keanu Reeves’ Neo is back where he started off – being Thomas Anderson, only now he is no longer the illegal hacker of 1999 but a video game developer for Warner Bros (yes, that plug is there) who has made games that are (wait for it) the Matrix trilogy! And now he’s being asked to make a sequel to the trilogy (yes, the makers are being smug here). But does he look good!

Neil Patrick Harris is his analyst who’s fooled him until now and made him believe that this is the real world (where he’s making video games) while being controlled by machines that want to keep him away from humans who want their minds to be free (because they know what happens when Neo does his magic– from flying to beating his enemies with all the fighting skills possible and always escaping the agents).&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-the-matrix-resurrections-leaked-online-on-torrent-sites-days-before-india-release-438732" hreflang="en">'The Matrix Resurrections' leaked online on torrent sites, days before India release</a>

Then there’s Trinity oops Tiffany who Thomas meets everyday at the same cafe but does not recognise. Only that he does but has no memories of where he knows her from. Both Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss have aged gracefully and look old and we’re not complaining. Their chemistry sizzles like old times.

Film’s director Lana Wachowski brings together nostalgic elements that bind the film together but lacks the punch that the first film had…but to be honest, how many sequels live up to their predecessors? She brings the dingy industrial spaceships, robots with metal tentacles back to show what the real world looks like – much like what you’d remember from the original film. There’s also lots of action (obviously) and some kickass stunts but somehow it all pales in comparison to what we saw in the 1999 film. One thing good, however, is that the humans in the illusive world no longer need telephone booths to jump to and fro. So that’s quite a relief, given we’ve jumped two decades since the first film came out.&nbsp;

Also, probably because these days we see so much meta stuff around us that the idea of machines and Artificial Intelligence taking over our world doesn’t seem so dystopian anymore. Maybe we have accepted that fate already? Or is it fate, really? Maybe, all this is just an illusion and we’ll find a glitch soon.&nbsp;

Priyanka Chopra also finds a credible mention as she plays Sati. While her screen time is less, she gets a meaty, chunky role and she does justice to it. She plays a crucial role in getting Neo and Trinity together as the actress proves her acting mettle yet again.&nbsp;
