Outline:
Report circulating via social media claims that the Earth will experience one full day of darkness starting on June 2nd, 2016. The claims have supposedly been confirmed by NASA.
Brief Analysis:
The claims in the report are utter nonsense. There will be no ‘day of total darkness’ in June (unless you are in Antarctica) and NASA has certainly not confirmed the supposed once in a million year event. The fake report is just the latest incarnation of a long running hoax that has circulated in various forms for several years.
