The Doomsday Clock moves to 2 1/2 minutes to midnight

this is the closest it's been since 1953, when it reached 2 minutes due to the US and USSR testing nuclear weapons within nine months of each other.

for reference, the doomsday clock is symbolic of how close we are to possible global catastrophe. it was created after WWII to warn against the possibility of nuclear war, and today also factors in global warming and global political instability.
