Neither Mayans nor Egyptians knew anything about galaxies, and there is no precisely defined galactic plane with any peculiar physics.

The Cosmic Background Radiation provides a "frame of reference" for the universe at large, relative to which we can measure our motion. From the motion we measure compared to the CBR, we need to subtract out the motion of the Earth around the Sun and the Sun around the center of the Milky Way. The motion that's left must be the particular motion of our Galaxy through the universe! And how fast is the Milky Way Galaxy moving? The speed turns out to be an astounding 1.3 million miles per hour (2.1 million km/hr)! We are moving roughly in the direction on the sky that is defined by the constellations of Leo and Virgo. Although the reasons for this motion are not fully understood, astronomers believe that there is a huge concentration of matter in this direction. Some people call it The Great Attractor, although we now know that the pull is probably not due to one group of galaxies but many. Still the extra gravity in this direction pulls the Milky Way (and many neighbor galaxies) in that direction.
From en.wikipedia.org...
The current ice age, the Pliocene-Quaternary glaciation, started about 2.58 million years ago during the late Pliocene, when the spread of ice sheets in the Northern Hemisphere began. Since then, the world has seen cycles of glaciation with ice sheets advancing and retreating on 40,000- and 100,000-year time scales called glacial periods, glacials or glacial advances, and interglacial periods, interglacials or glacial retreats. The earth is currently in an interglacial, and the last glacial period ended about 10,000 years ago. All that remains of the continental ice sheets are the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets and smaller glaciers such as on Baffin Island.

What parts are inaccurate? The Maya didn't know that it took the Earth slightly more than 365 days to orbit the Sun. This caused them to have to constantly recalibrate their solar calendar. Although I should point out that the Egyptian calendar was the same. His claims about galaxies are also correct. While the Persians had observed the Andromeda galaxy in the 10th century the rest of the world did not know of its existence until 1612. And even then it wasn't properly identified as being separate from the Milky Way until 1750.

Buddy, why are you being antagonistic? I'm not disagreeing with you, or insisting I'm right.
I'm sorry, but isn't ATS is a forum where members are encouraged to engage, analyze, and discuss? Deny ignorance, right?
You're on this thread to hear what the OP has to say, and you don't have anything to add to it other a complaint about my attempt to analyze and question the one piece of scientific evidence the OP provided?
How about this; next time, unless you have something constructive to add to a thread, just keep reading.
Flavius Josephus, a Jewish historian, 37 AD to circa 100 AD, wrote that a comet hung over Jerusalem nearly a year like a Sword of Damocles, foretelling a message of doom. The Roman army under Titus came and destroyed the Temple, slaughtering over 100,000 persons. General Titus even remarked that he couldn't restrain his men. It was as if an evil spirit had taken control of them. They even attacked the Temple Wall with their scabbard knives, digging and clawing out the Temple stones.
Long before we move directly into the (a) Densest Portion of the spiral arm our solar system lives in and before our solar system moves directly into the (b) Galactic Plane, madness will increase. It has been. Those vibrations and tidal forces generated by (a) and (b) will pull on the brains of an already sick mind from the type of foods we have been eating for sometime now due to our modern technology and its environmental poisons. And due to the minset of what has been generated in their brains that they are entitled to get plenty for little or nothing, you can expect total chaos! Mass confusion and absolute selfishness—no mercy...no quarter given. Just look at what you are seeing out there now. Senseless killings. And now, the "Castle Doctrine" is under fire and portrayed as "a license to kill." You are not even safe in your own home such that you can use lethal force to defend yourself and family if broken into and feel you are about to be murdered.
"Confusion...confusion...everywhere confusion...," an early Church saint saw for our time. When the chaos hits, it will be like the honey bee population that is now demonstrating this. The bee population throughout America is dying out. Something's killing them. But more important is the extreme confusion they are demonstrating. It is referenced by honey bee keepers as the "Collapsing Hive Syndrome." Their infrastructure has collapsed. They have lost so many bees, the remaining bees do not know what to do. The division of labor has now collapsed. The worker bees are no longer caring for the young; the queen bee is left to fend for herself and food gathering has gone to practically nothing.
We live at the top of the food chain, when we see something such as this occurring, it is going to eventually effect us. It may be due to our technology. The honey bees are undoubtedly getting GMOs (genetically modified pollens carrying insecticides and viral genes) and may not be able to tolerate this. Mass chaos has already started in the lower organisms. When our infrastructure goes....
The Dark Rift is that moment(s) in time when the solar system, with its planets, which includes the Earth, the Asteroid Belt, the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud, passes inside the center of radial axis created by the black hole situated at the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way. In some way, light will be affected– along with other occurrences, religious writers call a "great shaking" in the End Times of the Earth.
As the vibrations and frequencies increase and the tidal forces take definite shape towards Earth, patterns of thought and actions will change. You can expect wild speculation to withdrawal from the stock market as well as overvaluations. Economic world-wide crises will ensue. Mike Shedlock writing for The Daily Recokoning, Wednesday, March 21, 2007, 11:18 AM, writes:
"MIT economics professor Xavier Gabaix, along with a team of physicists from Boston University discovered that the movements of the stock market follow a mathematical pattern similar to earthquakes.
"These findings could allow traders to protect their investments by pinpointing periods when market volatility is likely to be significant.
Now, let's understand some terms: Precession, Earth Tilt, Earth wobble, 26,000 years and the End of an Age. Every 26,000 years, rounded off from 25,900, the Earth wobble has completed one revolution of Earth wobble through Now, let's understand some terms: Precession, Earth Tilt, Earth wobble, 26,000 years and the End of an Age.
On December 12, 2012, the Earth will enter into this new age.
Throughout history and early records, whenever the Earth went into a new age, the new age was met with cataclysmic change.

OP's appears to not be around right now, but apart from his sometimes spurious type comments, the part of his suggestions that seem more founded on science going back some 20 years is how the solar system and heliopause appears to be entering interstellar areas of denser and more magnetic material, combined to evidence on pole reversals. During a pole reversal life on earth may be exposed to extreme but often patchy areas of higher electromagnetic radiation of various sources and spectrum, and possible plasma related events.
Pole reversals happen every not sure how many 20,000 years or so, and so far most life has survived these periods, which last... 10-100 years from what I was reading decades ago. Presumably non technological humans survived these magnetic pole shifts many times before so the average solution to the problem, in as much as usually exists, may not be more extreme than common sense of staying heavily sheltered when one feels uncomfortable. The best instrument deck probably.
Better survival for humans if such various conditions come to pass, may be improved by having some home construction with thick concrete or concrete and dirt ceilings and walls, not going out when certain radiation seems high, perhaps midday. Wood frame construction won't cut for protection it if high x-rays are involved in an event, for instance. A possible scenario is a situation where the radiation survival advantage to those who become more nocturnal with a protected day-time sleeping location.
One should know how to watch animals and nature for signs that such conditions might occur, and have methods to measure like Geiger counter, UV meter, etc. if possible. The web is only good for an early warning tip off of such conditions at best, and one needs to learn to function intelligently beyond the internet (contradiction in terms perhaps?)
That type of protection might not be enough in the case of more extreme events, but OP seems to have some kind of beliefs about how things are to go down. Who knows about that, but I go along with his idea of basic knowledge of the possible scenarios, and whatever amount of protection in terms of concrete or dirt one can manage built into their daytime living or working area.
I have no illusions to any guarantees of my life anyhow but I still appreciate knowledge, and I don't have a government pass card to dumb, but I don't think I'd use one even if I even if I had one.
Adventure is superior to false illusions of safety and heavy limitations imo.
Saludos
3. The scientific facts of this 26.000 year long cycle is somewhat proven, but if there will be cataclysmic events that destroys the world is something that seems very unlikely. The Elites of the world would reveal themselves and give up their secret in some way. It would leak out to the public.
