Daily Mail: Humanity is '100 seconds from annihilation': Doomsday clock remains unchanged for the third year in a row because the 'world is no safer than it was last year at this time' 

* Scientists unveiled the Doomsday clock for the 75th time since 1947 

* The clock remains at 100 seconds to midnight for the third year in a row 

* This is because the 'world is no safer than it was last year at this time'

The Doomsday clock will remain at 100 seconds to midnight for the third year in a row because the 'world is no safer than it was last year at this time.'
