Where is nibiru

According to Sitchin, they subsequently genetically engineered our species, originally as slave workers to work in their gold mines, by crossing their genes with those of Homo erectus. The Anunnaki "those who from heaven came to earth" in Sumerian came upon evolution on earth as it had been progressing for billions of years however, they desired to create a worker who could communicate and learn from them.

After a slew of failed prototypes an Anunnaki goddess engineered a perfect specimen- the Adam. It is only recently that we understand DNA as having a double-helix nature, The Sumerians depicted their goddess creator along with snakes in a double helix form with thin bars connecting between them in a spiral fashion.

The intertwined snakes are also modern day representatives for the field of medicine. Sitchin says some sources speak about the same planet, possibly being a brown dwarf star and still in a highly elliptic orbit around the Sun, with a perihelion passage some 3, years ago and assumed orbital period of about 3, to 3, years or 3, years. Sitchin attributes these figures to astronomers of the Maya civilization. Many involved in research of this kind predict a return date of Nibiru passing Earth coinciding with the Winter Solstice of ; specifically at This also coincides with a rare alignment of the Earth, Sun and centre of the Milky Way , and is asserted to be likely to cause a pole shift.

However, scientists argue that a planet with such an orbit would eventually either develop a circular orbit or fly off into space and overwhelmingly consider Sitchin's claims to be pseudoscience.

The similar orbit of CR, however, is accepted by scientists. A brown dwarf with a period of 3, years would be clearly evident through infrared and gravitational observations. And it has been. In Nasa launched the IRAS telescope which picked up the faint image of a large celestial body 3 times the distance of Pluto in our own solar system.

In the press conference, the two scientists one named Gerry Neugebauer said that these objects could be "almost anything, from a tenth planet in our solar system to distant galaxies". Later much deeper images were taken, and some of the objects were found to be dense gas clouds in our own Galaxy, while others turned out to be very distant galaxies. These are galaxies in which there is a burst of stars being born. The cocoons of dust in which the stars are enshrouded generates copious infrared, which is what was detected by IRAS.

They published these results in the prestigious Astrophysical Journal. Another interesting discovery also brought Nibiru into light recently. The prediction is based on detailed mathematical modeling and computer simulations, not direct observation. This large object could explain the unique orbits of at least five smaller objects discovered in the distant Kuiper Belt. It's too early to say with certainty there's a so-called Planet X. What we're seeing is an early prediction based on modeling from limited observations.

It's the start of a process that could lead to an exciting result. The Caltech scientists believe Planet X may have has a mass about 10 times that of Earth and be similar in size to Uranus or Neptune.

The predicted orbit is about 20 times farther from our Sun on average than Neptune which orbits the Sun at an average distance of 2.

It would take this new planet between 10, and 20, years to make just one full orbit around the Sun where Neptune completes an orbit roughly every years. Planet X has not yet been discovered, and there is debate in the scientific community about whether it exists.

The prediction in the Jan. Batygin and Brown nicknamed their predicted object "Planet Nine," but the actual naming rights of an object go to the person who actually discovers it. The name used during previous hunts for the long suspected giant, undiscovered object beyond Neptune is "Planet X.

If the predicted world is found, the name must be approved by the International Astronomical Union. Planets are traditionally named for mythological Roman gods. Astronomers studying the Kuiper Belt have noticed some of the dwarf planets and other small, icy objects tend to follow orbits that cluster together. By analyzing these orbits, the Caltech team predicted the possibility that a large, previously undiscovered planet may be hiding far beyond Pluto.

They estimate the gravity of this potential planet might explain the unusual orbits of those Kuiper objects. Astronomers, including Batygin and Brown, will begin using the world's most powerful telescopes to search for the object in its predicted orbit. Any object that far away from the Sun will be very faint and hard to detect, but astronomers calculate that it should be possible to see it using existing telescopes.

That is why we're publishing this paper. We hope that other people are going to get inspired and start searching. Then there's the slippery question of where Planet Nine might have come from in the first place. So far, there are three main ideas. One is that it formed where it currently hides, which Batygin dismisses as relatively unlikely because this would require the early solar system to have stretched out as far as its distant refuge. There's also the intriguing suggestion that the ninth planet is actually an alien imposter, an object that was stolen from another star long ago when the Sun was still in the stellar cluster in which it was born.

Then there's Batygin's personal favourite, which he admits is also "not a complete slam dunk". In this scenario, the planet formed much closer to the Sun, at a time when the solar system was in its early stages and the planets were just beginning to coalesce out of the surrounding gas and dust. Of course, all this begs an obvious question — if Planet Nine is really there, why has no one seen it? For example, astronomers would normally be looking for a class of objects, such as a particular kind of planet.

Even if they're rare, if you survey a wide enough expanse of space, you're likely to find something. But hunting down a specific object such as Planet Nine is a whole different exercise. This 8. This is ideal, because the shadowy planet would be so far away, it's unlikely to be reflecting much light from the Sun. However, there is one almost outrageously peculiar scenario in which the planet will never be found this way — it might not be a planet after all, but a black hole.

The Subaru telescope in Hawaii has already spotted the most distant known object in our solar system, nicknamed "Farfarout", during a search for Planet Nine Credit: Alamy. While we're most familiar with the idea that planets exert a powerful gravitational pull, "there are other things that can generate it, which are more exotic", says Unwin.

Some plausible replacements for planet nine include a small ball of ultra-concentrated dark matter, or a primordial black hole. As black holes are among the most dense objects in the Universe, Unwin explains that it's entirely possible the latter could be warping the orbits of distant objects in the outer solar system.

Primordial black holes are different. They have never been observed, but are thought to originate in the hot energy-and-matter haze that formed in the first second of the Big Bang. In this uneven environment, some parts of the Universe may have become so dense, they were compressed into tiny pockets with the mass of planets.

Even the smallest stellar blackholes have masses three times that of our Sun, so it would be like having at least three extra Suns pulling at the planets in our solar system. In short, we would definitely have noticed.

However, Unwin and Scholtz say it could be a primordial black hole, since these are thought to be substantially smaller. What would it look like?

Should we be worried? And could this be even more exciting than discovering a planet? First, even primordial black holes are dense enough that no light can escape. They are the truest form of black. This means that this one would not show up on any kind of telescope that currently exists. If you were to look straight at it, the only clue to its presence would be a blank void — a tiny gap in the blanket of stars in the night sky. Which brings us to the real snag.

While the mass of this black hole would be the same as that of the proposed Planet Nine — up to 10 times Earth's — it would be condensed into a volume roughly the size of an orange. To find it would require some ingenuity. So far, suggestions include looking for the gamma rays that are emitted by objects as they fall into black holes, or releasing a constellation of hundreds of tiny spacecraft, which might — if we're lucky — pass close enough so that they'd be pulled towards it ever-so-fractionally, and accelerate by a detectable amount.

If they travelled any slower, they might take hundreds of years to arrive — an experiment that would, naturally, stretch well beyond a human lifetime.

As it happens, these futuristic spacecraft are already being developed for another ambitious mission, the Breakthrough Starshot project , which aims to send them to the Alpha Centauri star system, 4. If we were to discover a lurking black hole, rather than a frigid planet, Unwin says there would be no need to panic. He explains that from the perspective of anyone on Earth, having an undiscovered black hole in the solar system is not that different to having a concealed planet there.

But while stellar and primordial black holes are essentially the same, the latter have never been found or studied — and difference in scale is expected to lead to some bizarre phenomena.
