    Extinction Level Event Investigation & Planet X

     

    This one I cannot explain, so I have gone out and found as many credible sources on the subject as I could. They are all cited for you below and  point to a rather scary and frightening event involving unexplained planetary perturbations.

    I do not know what to make of this so retyped information for you review and comments.

     

    Is this true? Research Quotes (Also see the disclosure project)

     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."

    From www.Yowusa.com

    "John Maynard, a former CIA agent who provided Yowusa with technical advice during our early days, said it (The IRAS Telescope) was not shut down. He told Yowusa that IRAS was shut down to the public only, but imaging went on, specifically the imaging of one object they had found."

    Gerry Neugebauer said:

    "A heavenly body possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation Orion by an orbiting telescope aboard the U.S. infrared astronomical satellite.... ‘All I can tell you is that we don’t know what it is,’ said Gerry Neugebauer, chief IRAS scientist."

    Mystery Heavenly Body Discovered, a front page story

    A heavenly body possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation Orion by an orbiting telescope aboard the U.S. infrared astronomical satellite. So mysterious is the object that astronomers do not know if it is a planet, a giant comet, a nearby "protostar" that never got hot enough to become a star, a distant galaxy so young that it is still in the process of forming its first stars or a galaxy so shrouded in dust that none of the light cast by its stars ever gets through. "All I can tell you is that we don't know what it is," Dr. Gerry Neugebauer, IRAS chief scientist for California's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology said in an interview.

    The most fascinating explanation of this mystery body, which is so cold it casts no light and has never been seen by optical telescopes on Earth or in space, is that it is a giant gaseous planet, as large as Jupiter and as close to Earth as 50 billion miles. While that may seem like a great distance in earthbound terms, it is a stone's throw in cosmological terms, so close in fact that it would be the nearest heavenly body to Earth beyond the outermost planet Pluto. "If it is really that close, it would be a part of our solar system," said Dr. James Houck of Cornell University's Center for Radio Physics and Space Research and a member of the IRAS science team. "If it is that close, I don't know how the world's planetary scientists would even begin to classify it."

    The mystery body was seen twice by the infrared satellite as it scanned the northern sky from last January to November, when the satellite ran out of the supercold helium that allowed its telescope to see the coldest bodies in the heavens. The second observation took place six months after the first and suggested the mystery body had not moved from its spot in the sky near the western edge of the constellation Orion in that time. "This suggests it's not a comet because a comet would not be as large as the one we've observed and a comet would probably have moved," Houck said. "A planet may have moved if it were as close as 50 billion miles but it could still be a more distant planet and not have moved in six months time.

    Whatever it is, Houck said, the mystery body is so cold its temperature is no more than 40 degrees above "absolute" zero, which is 459 degrees Fahrenheit below zero. The telescope aboard IRAS is cooled so low and is so sensitive it can "see" objects in the heavens that are only 20 degrees above absolute zero. When IRAS scientists first saw the mystery body and calculated that it could be as close as 50 billion miles, there was some speculation that it might be moving toward Earth. "It's not incoming mail," Cal Tech's Neugebauer said. "I want to douse that idea with as much cold water as I can."

    http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/10/071030092705.htm 

    This demonstrates a possible warming pattern every 3600 years.

    Theory is that an orbital object, exactly as described by the Bible, Ancient Sumarians and Dr. Z. Sitchin may be upon us again soon. It may already be involved global warming.

    Can we get on this? There is enough here to justify more research from the smart folks here.

    You have been had, as they say. Large parts of this are complete fabrication, and the tiny bits that are factual do not relate to actual observations of such a planet. This has been making the rounds of the Internet for years.

    What is true is that numerous Kuiper Belt objects (roughly the size of Pluto, and smaller) have been discovered in the past decade. It doesn't take a CIA agent to learn about it. Furthermore, ‘All I can tell you is that we don’t know what it is,’ could legitimately appear in a great many "discovery" press releases.

    Re: Extinction Level Event Investigation & Planet X

      Yes, astronomers have no problem spotting an object reportedly that big in the outer solar system.  The other bit of online fun is that this "planet" underwent three 'course corrections' monitored by JPL or the Naval Observatory--implying it was a giant spaceship.

      This was 1992.

      There has been nothing since then.

      Of course, this is due to the aliens' higly sophisticated cloaking device.

     I agree "we do not know what it is" I also know about the conspiracy theory thing, and this has enough press to say it is not a conspiracy.

    "Planet X" means we do not what it is, but evidence and mathematics show it, or some perturber  to mathematically exist.

    The conspiracy theory ends with actual proof, and I think there is now, however small, enough.

    There is no "it" -- the "evidence" points to many small solar system bodies in two different orbital envelopes (a smaller number in the Kuiper Belt, closer in, and a very much larger number in the Oort Cloud, very much further out). These regions are the source of comets. We are talking millions to billions of these objects, each smaller than a planet and the largest roughly the size of currently known KBOs.

    A planet of Jupiter's mass within either region would be detectable.

    These supposed orbital perturbations are not confirmed. Other perturbations have been explained by discoveries of KBOs and normal orbital resonances from existing, known bodies. No extraordinary explanation is required.

    Washington posts 1983 story

    I looked at the original article. It does not say this is a physical body within or near our Solar System. It quotes Neugebauer as having said that is merely one "possible" explanation. In their 1985 paper in the Journal of Astrophysics, Neugebauer, Houck, et al, attribute the IRAS discoveries to distant galaxies shrouded by dust and thus visible only in the infrared. End of issue.

    Again U.S. News and World Report's Story

    Not a "credible" scientific source. The scientists themselves are the credible source. A newsmagazine "checks" facts by talking to people. A scientist checks facts by having other scientists test the data. The scientists did that and found the answer. It is not a planet. It is not near our Solar System.

    Both Chief Scientists of the IRAS telescope

    ... have said in a peer-reviewed, published scientific paper, this is not the mythical Planet X ...

    Mathematical & Scientific Computation of a large Perturbing object 

    Cite it.

    Extensive Historical Accounts from the Bible, the Egyptians, Sumarians, Inca, & Aztec's

    Re: Extinction Level Event Investigation & Planet X

     "IF" this giant planet X really exists, I really don't think it would be a "galaxy" as close as a few billion miles away. Galaxies are on a scale of thousands of light years (even the dwarf galaxies). How could this thing be a galaxy if it's close enough to be part of our own solar system.

    It sounds to me like a farce. If this spokesman of the IRAS knew anything about what he was talking about, I doubt he would state that.

    That's the problem with ignorant/dishonest guys like nibiru2012, isn't it? They don't know very much, yet they imagine they have some big truth / knowledge to share with the world. 

    The real story goes like this:  the IRAS guys found some infrared sources which they couldn't attribute to anything known at that time. They openly said they didn't know what they were, and could be anything. The Planet X morons then immediately started shouting "Look! Evidence of Planet X!"

    What these guys conveniently neglected to mention later, was that the IRAS scientists eventually pinned down the infrared sources, which turned out to be faint galaxies, not planets or brown dwarfs, and published their results in The Astrophysical Journal. The journal is accessible only to subscribers, but the article abstact is freely available here: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-bib_query?bibcode=1985ApJ...290L...5H&db_key=AST&high=3ccf23290006822

    Also note the deceitful cover-up attempt by nibiru2012. niribu2012 provided a link to a page by Tom Chester, one of the scientist on the IRAS team. http://spider.ipac.caltech.edu/staff/tchester/iras/washington_post_mystery_object.html showing the Washington Post report in its entirety. This looks like a real Caltech page, and everyone knows Caltech is a respectable institute. nibiru2012 here attempts to portray Chester, a legitimate scientist, as endorsing the Washington Post report.

    But what nibiru2012 conveniently neglects to mention, again, is that Chester had another page: http://spider.ipac.caltech.edu/staff/tchester/iras/no_tenth_planet_yet.html which Chester created  to debunk the dipshits who are screwing and discrediting his good name.

    These Planet X guys are running around twisting the words of respectable scientists who have done good work to deceive others.

    Re: Extinction Level Event Investigation & Planet X

    Nice job! At least someone did their homework. Now I don't have to flee the planet. It's really kind of funny when you look at all those conspiracy theories out there. Is astronomy really so boring that people need to come up with these blatant lies? Here is a science that ponders the most fasinating and difficult questions humanity has ever perceived. Yet there is always tons of fabricated stories out there to purposely lead unwitting people astray.

    Hell, I'm still waiting for Mars to appear as large as the full moon from our perspective.

    I have also been researching this Planet X theory and I must say that it is intriguing. What exactly is the purpose of the South Pole telescope if not to observe this body that was discovered years ago. Supposedly, the Vatican is also aware of this object and will be launching it's own telescope for further studies. Anyone have more info on the SPT?
