When discussing Planet X, one inevitably encounters this knee-jerk
rejectionist rant. "Well, if Planet X really did exist, our government
would tell us about it."
They have, so those of us who actively research the topic ignore these
rejectionist rants because we know that they know.
However, for those of you who are new to the topic, or are trying to
discuss the subject with others, here are three undeniable speed bumps
you can toss under those fast-moving rejectionist rascals. One of
which, happens to be a smoking gun!
#1
— NASA and Are We Alone in the Universe?
In a 1992 video, Zecharia Sitchin first offered a revealng excerpt from
a 1992 NASA press release.
The Are We Alone in the Universe? video was originally released in 1992
and was poorly re-mastered in 2003. The minute you play it, you know
it’s authentic because of Sitchen’s typically
wooden
performance. Nonetheless, it is a treasure trove for Planet X (Nibiru)
researchers.
Towards the very end of the program, the following CGI text appears, as
though it were a last minute find, inserted during the final edit.
NASA
Press Release 1992
"Unexplained deviations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune point to a
large outer solar system body of 4 to 8 Earth masses, on a highly
tilted orbit, beyond 7 billion miles from the sun." |
Sitchin is extremely precise in such matters and this NASA quote is a
bombshell. Nonetheless, we vetted this so that we could use this quote
in Planet X Forecast and 2012 Survival Guide. To do that, we
started with a 2003 interview article on our site by Steve
Russell. In that interview Sitchin states:
Will
Planet X / Nibiru Return in 2003?
YOWUSA.COM, 01-June-02
“Some ten years ago the US Government itself, through its
Naval
Observatory, led the search for "Planet X" and the team's leader, Dr.
Harrington, agreed with my ancient evidence. At that time even The New
York Times wrote that all that is left regarding the existence of such
a post-Plutonian planet is to name it...
I have no doubt that at the right time — right in the eyes of
whoever decided these matters — the existence of Nibiru will
be
officially confirmed.”—Zecharia Sitchin |
When discussing Planet X with rejectionists, expect the Eris
retort. “Well they found it silly and
it’s called the
Eris, the Tenth Planet.” Ugh… there
seems to be this
enduring misperception that this lifeless rock is the Planet X / Nibiru
that we’ve been looking for since the discovery of
Uranus.
Wrong.
Eris object is slightly larger than Pluto and little better than 60%
the size of our own moon. That means it has nowhere near
enough
mass to be Planet X. Ergo, it was designated a dwarf planet
along
with Pluto.
However, in fairness to this object, it really did get a bum
rap.
It was originally named Xena in honor of a certain mega-hot TV
babe. Cool name, but now there’s this Eris renaming
nonsense. What’s with that: Revenge of the socially
challenged astro-geeks, part deux?
Back to Sitchin...
In Steve Russell’s interview, Sitchin refers to The New York
Times. Since he lives in New York, Sitchin follows that
newspaper
with great interest, as do others.
One in particular is John DiNardo. A few days ago, he emailed
me
two JPEG images of a 1983 article that appeared in the New York Times.
It turned out to be a wonderful bit of synchronicity.
#2
— IRAS, Planet X and the New York Times
On January 26, 1983, NASA launched the Infrared Astronomical Satellite
(IRAS) was launched on January 26, 1983. Independent Planet X
researchers have long held the idea that the IRAS satellite imaged
Planet X during its sky survey.
With that thought in mind, enjoy the following New York Times article
published just 4 days after the IRAS launch.

Get Warm in the Search for Planet X

Something out there beyond the farthest reaches of the known solar
system seems to be tugging at Uranus and Neptune. Some
gravitational force keeps perturbing the two giant planets, causing
irregularities in their orbits. The force suggests a presence
far
away and unseen, a large object that may be the long-sought Planet X.
Evidence assembled in recent years has led several groups of
astronomers to renew the search for the 10th planet. They are
devoting more time to visual observations with the 200-inch telescope
at Mount Palomar in California. They are tracking two Pioneer
spacecraft, now approaching the orbit of distant Pluto, to see if
variations in their trajectories provide clues to the source of the
mysterious force. And they are hoping that a satellite-borne
telescope launched last week will detect heat
“signatures”
from the planet, or whatever it is out there.
The Infrared Astronomical Satellite was boosted into a 560-mile-high
polar orbit Tuesday night from Vandenberg Air Force Base, CA.
It
represents an $80-million venture by the United States, Britain and the
Netherlands. In the next six or seven months, the telescope
is
expected to conduct a wide-ranging survey of nearly all the sky,
detecting sources not of ordinary light, but of infrared radiation,
which is invisible to the human eye and largely absorbed by the
atmosphere. Scientists thus hope that the new telescope will
chart thousands or infrared-emitting objects that have gone undetected
– stars, interstellar clouds, asteroids and, with any luck,
the
object that pulls at Uranus and Neptune.
The last time a serious search of the skies was made, it led to the
discovery in 1930 of Pluto, the ninth planet. But the story
begins more than a century before that, after the discovery of Uranus
in 1781 by the English astronomer and musician William
Herschel.
Until then, the planetary system seemed to end with Saturn.
As astronomers observed Uranus, noting irregularities in its orbital
path, many speculated that they were witnessing the gravitational pull
of an unknown planet. So began the first planetary search
based
on astronomers’ predictions, which ended in the
1840’s with
the discovery of Neptune almost simultaneously by English, French and
German astronomers.
But Neptune was not massive enough to account entirely for the orbital
behavior of Uranus. Indeed, Neptune itself seemed to be
affected
by a still more remote planet. In the late 19th century, two
American astronomers, William H. Pickering and Percival Lowell,
predicted the size and approximate location of the trans-Neptunian
body, which Lowell called Planet X.
Years later, Pluto was detected by Clyde W. Tombaugh working at Lowell
Observatory in Arizona. Several astronomers, however,
suspected
it might not be the Planet X of prediction. Subsequent
observations proved them right. Pluto was too small to change
the
orbits of Uranus and Neptune; the combined mass of Pluto and its
recently discovered satellite, Charon, is only one-fifth that of
Earth’s moon.
Recent calculations by the United States Naval Observatory have
confirmed the orbital perturbation exhibited by Uranus and Neptune,
which Dr. Thomas C. Van Flandern, an astronomer at the observatory,
says could be explained by “a single undiscovered
planet.” He and a colleague, Dr. Robert Harrington,
calculate that the 10th planet should be two to five times more massive
than Earth and have a highly elliptical orbit that takes it some 5
billion miles beyond that of Pluto – hardly next-door but
still
within the gravitational influence of the Sun.
Some astronomers have reacted cautiously to the 10th-planet
predictions. They remember the long, futile quest for the
planet
Vulcan inside the orbit of Mercury; Vulcan, it turned out, did not
exist. They wonder why such a large object as a 10th planet
escaped the exhaustive survey by Mr. Tombaugh, who is sure it is not in
the two-thirds of the sky he examined. But ac cording to Dr.
Ray
T. Reynolds of the Ames Research Center in Mountain View, CA, other
astronomers “are so sure of the 10th planet, they think
there’s nothing left but to name it.”
At a scientific meeting last summer, 10th-planet partisans tended to
prevail. Alternative explanations for the outer-planet
perturbations were offered. The something out there, some
scientists said, might be an unseen black hole or neutron star passing
through the Sun’s vicinity. Defenders of the 10th
planet
parried the suggestions. Material falling into the
gravitational
field of a black hole, the remains of a very massive star after its
complete gravitational collapse, should give off detectable x-rays,
they noted; no X-rays have been detected. A neutron star, a
less
massive star that has collapsed to a highly dense state, should affect
the courses of comets, they said, yet no such changes have been
observed.
More credence was given to the hypothesis that a “brown
dwarf” star accounts for the mysterious force. This
is the
informal name astronomers give to celestial bodies that were not
massive enough for their thermonuclear furnaces to ignite; perhaps like
the huge planet Jupiter, they just missed being self-illuminating stars.
Most stars are paired, so it is not unreasonable to suggest that the
Sun has a dim companion. Moreover, a brown dwarf in the
neighborhood might not reflect enough light to be seen far away, said
Dr. John Anderson of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena,
CA. Its gravitational forces, however, should produce energy
detectable by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite.
Whatever the mysterious force, be it a brown dwarf or a large planet,
Dr. Anderson said he was “quite optimistic” that
the
infrared telescope might fine it and that the Pioneer spacecraft could
supply an estimate of the object’s mass. Of course,
no one
can be sure that even this discovery would define the outermost
boundary of the solar system. |
Shortly after we posted this article, John DiNardo must have toasted
his library card to the max, because he sent in another great clipping.
Oh yah baby, this is the one. The smoking gun!
#3 — IRAS, Planet X and
the U.S.
News and World Report
A core premise of recent book, Planet X Forecast and 2012 Survival
Guide is that Planet X is a brown dwarf. Dark Star Author, Andy Lloyd
who is a frequent guest on Cut to the Chase, also insists that Sol's
companion in a brown dwarf.
Yowusa.com's stand in the matter is based on the detailed historical
accounts of previous Planet X flybys contained in The Kolbrin Bible.
These prescient accounts of the Egyptian and Celtic authors clearly
describe a brown dwarf.
With that in mind, read this sidebar printed in the U.S. News and World
Report on 1984, detailing an early IRAS find.
Planet X — Is It
Really Out There?
U.S. News and World Report, September 10, 1984

Shrouded from the sun's light, mysteriously tugging at the orbits of
Uranus and Neptune, is an unseen force that astronomers suspect may be
PLanet X — a 10th resident of the Earth's celestial
neighborhood.
Last year, the infrared astronomical satellite (IRAS), circling in a
polar orbit 560 miles from the Earth, detected heat from an object
about 50 billion miles away that is now the subject of intense
speculation.
"All I can say is that we don't know what it is yet," says Gerry
Neugenbaur, director of the Palomar Observatory for the California
Instititute of Technology. Scientists are hopeful that the one-way
journeys of the Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes may help to locate the
nameless body.
Some astronomers say the heat-emitting object is an unseen collapsed
star or possibly a "brown dwarf" — a protostar that never got
hot
enough to become a star. However, a growing number of astronomers
insist that the object is a dar, gaseous mass that is slowly evolving
into a planet.
For decades, astromers have noted that the orbits of two huge, distant
planets — Neptune and Uranus —deviate slightly from
what
they should be according to the laws of physics. Gravitational pull
from Planet X would explain that deviation.
Morever, says Neugebaur, "if we can show that our own solar system is
still creating planets, we'll know that it's happening around other
stars, too." |
The next time a knee-jerk rejectionist rants on with "Well, if Planet X
really did exist, our government would tell us about it," you've got
him by the short hairs. Happy tugging!
