Smile Niribu

Hi There...does anyone one any information on the Brown Drawf Planet named "Niribu" which is supposed to pass between the Earth and our Sun on December 21, 2012? I know there is plenty of info on the Net, however there may be new info available.

It doesn't exist.

All the "Niribu" and 2012 stuff that's being thrown around the internet is complete and utter garbage. Ignore it.

I think you mean 'Nibiru' and it has been discussed on IIS several times before. Try http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...=nibiru&page=2

I also note that a 'Brown Dwarf' is a type of star, though a 'Brown Drawf' is new to me it could easily be a type of bird.

Planet X

Hey peeps,

(Sorry if this is a repost)

But I am pretty new to the Astronomy side of things, but have been very interested in the Nibiru stories & astronomy etc etc, for a while now & along wit the moon bases etc etc....

I'd like to think that the planet X will pass us on 2012..It would be pretty interesting to see/witness...whether it does have Aliens based on it, who no's have to wait and see ha...but Anyway..

After reading various articles/blogs etc about nasa discovering planet x back in the day etc.. I found a post about Google sky & how apparently the US government made them block this location of Nibiru from the public with a big black rectangle.

Heres are the coorordinates to wack in google sky.
-6.01931, -91.5903

anyway. just interested to see your opinions on whether this could be the current location or its a load....

I just find it weird how all the google sky imagery is pretty much there except that one section. Maybe to blind public awareness?

A known asteroid will pass us close in december 2012 within 0.5 AU give
or take a bit ... I believe theres been others
http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/neo/pha_ca_date_f.html

The other part of the fairy whisperers well researched facts probably relates to eris http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_UB313
One of the most distant known objects in our solar system
Aside all the mythical conotations of its name its 500 year plus orbit
thats very eccentric orbit does bring it a fair bit closer to us .. but its still
so far away at its closest point you wouldn't believe .

These storys are all made up the same way in that the writers start with an outcome then work back selectively picking up a half truth here and there to make the end result plausable ..imo

welcome and enjoy your stay

Interesting coordinates.
1. I've never heard of a -ve RA coordinate before. It my be perpendicular to the other know 4 dimensions.
2. If the Dec coordinate is -91.5903 then the universe really must be geodesically mobius shaped.
