I would like JJJ to validate here, in the open forum, that there is still room for me in her bunker. Also, is the bunker self catering, or will you be furnishing all present with triple choc fudge muffins?

Yeah, H, I need to know so i can set up some kind of trampoline apparatus at the bottom, to ensure Martin bounces??

Can we view this event in stellarium if we wind the date forward? Do you have exact coordinates?

Oh and,

Being the calmest most unflappable person around, I advise that Nibiru is a big hoax.

There are several such, like Mars approaching so closely that it appears as big as the Moon, the end of the world being nigh, about twice each year, and so on.

Cheers

Please, new astronomy friend, do yourself a favour and watch this vid by Dr Neil DeGrasse Tyson. I find him compelling and hilarious.... and really, quite clever. He explains some of the junk science behind the hoax

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJjQMwEjC1I

You might even find you enjoy him, and while away the hours watching him (much as I do )

Simon,
Welcome to IIS!
In my opinion it is a hoax.
However I do believe that the 'comet' Lovejoy is the embodiment of the ship 'Destiny' in the series SGU.
No doubt about it!
Look at the myriad of pictures on the this site showing its trajectory!
According to one member, events similar to this have been leaked to movie makers as the precursor to the storyline of the SGU series.
Bartman

P.S.

Guys, stop trying to derail the thread.

It's real, and, it's happening.

The end is nigh.

You can tell by the replies that many people are going stir crazy because of the weather and are looking for anything to amuse them.

H, the world is not allowed to end until after midday Nov 14 2012.
