The talk of "Doomsday" and "The End of the World" is certainly on the rise as we approach December 21, 2012.

Whether or not the human race will be around following a doomsday event is a question that I'd rather not know the answer to.

The government has built a plane to withstand radiation and other possible threats in what is basically a jumbo jet on steroids. The Doomsday Plane was built in the 80s, but is still one of the best defenses the president has in his arsenal. A few weeks ago, I took you on a tour of Discovery Channel. Now let Discovery Channel take you on a tour of America's Doomsday Plane!
