Probably not. Knowing this would be hard not to be consumed with a countdown.

And besides, it seems like living in a timeline where this kind of knowledge is even possible has so many other implications. Does the knowledge come with the scenario that everything you may try to do to stop it only puts you closer to the outcome?
