"A group of scientists in Russia in year 2000 held several meetings to discuss the inbound planet discovered from one of their largest observatories. This led to the infamous "2003 Problem" Reuters news service wire Sept. 13th 2000. The top government officials called for a commission to study the problem which was said to expect to cause "A string of calamities" & "A massive population shrinkage" They openly wondered whether Russia would still even exist as a country afterwards."

Twenty One years ago, Zecharia Sitchin (linguistic scholar & historian of ancient Hebrew, Sumerian, Akkadian, and other early Mesopotamian civilizations) published The 12Th Planet (1976) which discusses the periodic return to our solar system of a large, red planet called Nibiru by ancient Sumerian historians (and Marduk by the Babylonians). [According to Sitchin] Nibiru was home to a race of war-prone hominids referred to in ancient texts by either their earlier Sumerian name of Anunnaki or their later Hebrew name of Nefilim (the word Nefilim is mentioned repeatedly in the Bible). The Anunnaki are described as well developed ,human look-a-likes who are physically larger than humans; averaging 10-15 feet tall. While the rank and file astronauts who first came to Earth were called Anunnaki by Sumerian historians, the ruling royalty were always referred to [by humans] as gods. The Anunnaki were technologically capable of interplanetary space travel when they first arrived on Earth about 450,00 years ago.

Nibiru was called the 12Th Planet by the ancients because it is a member of our solar system (ancients included the Moon and Sun as planets). However, unlike the other planets in our solar system, which are in a singular orbit around the sun, Nibiru is allegedly in a binary orbit between two suns: our sun and another cold {unlit} sun, far outside of our solar system.

Nibiru returns to our solar system approximately every 3,600 years. Nibiru is sometimes referred to as the red comet or red star in some ancient texts (and the 19th century channeled work, the Oahspe). Sitchin explains in his book that the 3,600 year periodic cycle of Nibiru is called a Shar or Sar by Sumerian historians. While a single shar occupies a time span of a little more than 3,600 years on Earth, it is equivalent to one year on the planet Nibiru. 

The last time the 12th Planet passed by the Earth was during the time of the Exodus from Egypt. In fact, the upheavals, cataclysms, and fear generated by the near passage of the 12th Planet allowed the Israeli slaves the opportunity to escape from the grip of Pharoah's troops-who had become completely overwhelmed by panic and confusion (Z). A red dust (iron oxide), along with larger chunks of debris. traveling in the tailing wake of the fast moving 12th Planet (as with other comets), rains down onto the Earth's atmosphere during a close passage. This red dust landing in water accounted for the Biblical account of the rivers running red with blood. The Bible also refers to fierce lighting storms and the red particle debris "reddening the face"of men. Electrical/magnetic storms of an intensity which only occurs during a close passage of the 12th Planet reacts with carbon materials thrown into the atmosphere by volcanic action.

It is forecasted by some that the 12th Planet will pass closest between the Earth and the Sun in late Spring or early Summer of 2003, probably May or June. At that time, the earth, being completely overwhelmed by the gravitational influence of the 12th Planet, may stop rotating completely for 3 days or so. There are numerous historical references to 3 days of darkness (non-rotation) cited in the Bible, Hopi Legends, Mayan Epics, etc. and well referenced by Sitchin in the books of his Earth Chronicals.

And so the world was first exposed to the potential of a neighbor in it's solar system. A neighbor yes ... however this neighbor is on a elliptical orbit between our own Sun and a dwarf star that may exist 18 times the distance from our Sun to Pluto outside of Pluto's orbit - an orbit that takes approximately 3600 years to complete. This page brings together the more salient data that has been located on the web and presents it here on one page to hopefully give you a contiguous image of what may arrive in less than two years.

A much wiser man than I will ever be once spoke, "If I give you a fish, you eat for the day. If I teach you to fish, you may feed yourself the rest of your life." I praise that Man every day of my life and in the spirit of which was His, this page hopefully will teach you "how to fish."

The 12Th Planet

Introduction

21 years ago, Zecharia Sitchin (linguistic scholar & historian of ancient Hebrew, Sumerian, Akkadian, and other early Mesopotamian civilizations) published The 12Th Planet (1976) which discusses the periodic return to our solar system of a large, red planet called Nibiru by ancient Sumerian historians (and Marduk by the Babylonians). Nibiru was home to a race of war-prone hominids referred to in ancient texts by either their earlier Sumerian name of Anunnaki or their later Hebrew name of Nefilim (the word Nefilim is mentioned repeatedly in the Bible). The Anunnaki are described as handsome, well developed human look-a-likes who are physically larger than humans; averaging 10-15 feet tall. While the rank and file astronauts who first came to Earth were called Anunnaki by Sumerian historians, the ruling royalty were always referred to as gods. The Anunnaki were technologically capable of interplanetary space travel when they first arrived on Earth about 450,00 years ago.

Nibiru was called the 12Th Planet by the ancients because it is a member of our solar system (ancients included the Moon and Sun as planets). However, unlike the other planets in our solar system, which are in a singular orbit around the sun, Nibiru is in a binary orbit (Z) between two suns: our sun and another cold {unlit} sun far out in our galaxy.

Nibiru returns to our solar system approximately every 3,600 years. Nibiru is sometimes referred to as the red comet or red star in some ancient texts (and the 19th century channeled work, the Oahspe). Sitchin explains in his book that the 3,600 year periodic cycle of Nibiru is called a Shar or Sar by Sumerian historians. While a single shar occupies a time span of a little more than 3,600 years on Earth, it is equivalent to one year on the planet Nibiru. All told, ancient Sumerian clay tablets and cylinder seals record a total period of occupation/visitation by the Anunnaki of over 124 Shars. Sitchin provides compelling historical evidence that the Anunnaki actively participated in the affairs of mankind up to the final destruction of the great city of Sumer in Mesopotamia, about 2,000BC. The Anunnaki's original objective in coming to Earth was to mine for Gold; an element they atomically dispersed in their atmosphere in order to prevent core-produced heat from dissipating excessively into space. Since 99% of Nibiru's orbital cycle is too far from our sun to benefit from its heat, it has to retain its internally generated heat in order to survive The Anunnaki first extracted gold from the waters of the Persian Gulf area, but later switched to land mining in South Africa and other locations due to greater abundance of gold ore.

The Zetas report that the Anunnaki have access to a plant (or tree), native to Nibiru, that prevents normal aging and bodily deterioration. Sumerian texts referred to it as the Tree of Life. Later, the Bible referred to it as Knowledge of The Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden story. Only Anunnaki royalty had privileged access to the Tree of Life (sometimes called Ambrosiac in Sumerian texts). They absorbed this substance into their bodies by taking baths soaked with this life extending plant. This special bath water was the origin of the story of The Fountain of Youth (Z). Apparently, Anunnaki royalty enjoyed extremely long lives. Sitchin's research reveals that some members of the highest echelons of the royal pantheon participated intermittently throughout the entire 446,000 years of the Anunnaki's occupation of Earth.

Exodus and The 12th Planet

The last time the 12th Planet passed by the Earth was during the time of the Exodus from Egypt. In fact, the upheavals, cataclysms, and fear generated by the near passage of the 12th Planet allowed the Israeli slaves the opportunity to escape from the grip of Pharoah's troops-who had become completely overwhelmed by panic and confusion (Z). A red dust (iron oxide), along with larger chunks of debris. traveling in the tailing wake of the fast moving 12th Planet (as with other comets), rains down onto the Earth's atmosphere during a close passage. This red dust landing in water accounted for the Biblical account of the rivers running red with blood. The Bible also refers to fierce lighting storms and the red particle debris "reddening the face"of men. Electrical/magnetic storms of an intensity which only occurs during a close passage of the 12th Planet reacts with carbon materials thrown into the atmosphere by volcanic action. This produces a type of sticky carbohydrate substance in the atmosphere (Z). In some areas, this substance precipitates to the ground and is available as food if collected in the early, pre-dawn hours. When the substance falls on water, it appears whittish in color. Called Ambrosia in ancient texts (Greek), or Manna, this carbohydrate material is the biblical reference to milk and honey ("Unto a land flowing with milk and honey". Exodus 33:3)

Return of The 12th Planet

The Zetas predict that the 12th Planet will pass closest between the Earth and the Sun in late Spring or early Summer of 2003, probably May or June. At that time, the earth, being completely overwhelmed by the gravitational influence of the 12th Planet, will stop rotating completely for 3 days or so. There are numerous historical references to 3 days of darkness (non-rotation) cited in the Bible, Hopi Legends, Mayan Epics, etc. and well referenced by Sitchin in the books of his Earth Chronicals.

Geophysical Effects of the 12th Planet

The 12th Planet is 4 times larger and 23 times more dense than Earth (Z). The Biblical narration of 7 years of plagues, crop failures, increased earthquakes/ volcanic eruptions, and other phenomena that preceded the Exodus was caused by the magnetic & gravitational effects of the approaching 12th Planet on the Earth's molten iron core (which behaves exactly like a giant bar magnet running from the North to the South Pole). The growing disruptions in our present day weather patterns, increased earthquake/ volcanic activity, the gradual slowing of the Earth's rotation, reports of magnetic deviations, new manifestations of DNA mutation (deformed frogs & fish, recent births of albino buffalo calves{predicted by Hopi Prophecies}, emerging viruses and bacteria, etc.), and other anomalies are being precipitated by unique and unrecognized forms of energy being released from the core of the Earth due to the approach of the 12th Planet.

July 3 — The discovery of a large reddish chunk of something orbiting in Pluto's neighborhood has re-ignited the idea that there may be more than nine planets in the solar system. Then again, it could also mean there are only eight planets, depending on your point of view.

What the discoverers are calling 2001 KX76 might be one of the largest "Kuiper Belt Objects" or KBO's, found in the what is essentially a second asteroid belt beyond the orbit of Neptune. 

Initial reports give 2001 KX76 a diameter of 900 to 1200 kilometers — roughly the size of Pluto's moon, Charon. Pluto itself, it should be noted, is smaller than our own moon."

"Astronomers at the Lowell Observatory have teamed up with colleagues from MIT and the Large Binocular Telescope Observatory to hunt for KBOs on the less remote parts of their orbits." 

"I then asked if they had heard about Planet X. One talked to me about half an hour. Yes, in fact, he knew quite a bit. I have promised to keep his anonymity from the internet so I cannot give away his identity but what he shared with me will hopefully give you some answers. He said some scientists told him about it and he called some friends of his that he was in the military with years ago. He trusted them because they had become scientists in NASA. What they went on to describe is why I cant sleep at 3:00 A.M.

Two things are certain, they told him: 1) Planet X exists. 2) It is coming between May 15 and May 30 of 2003. The rest is speculation. But, if its good enough for the NASA scientists, its good enough for me. The earth will stand still for about three days and then, in one hour, rotate a full 90 degrees (the pole shift) during which time winds will be an average of 200 miles per hour.

Every volcano on earth will erupt and of course there will be many earthquakes, so two thirds of earth's population will die in that one hour surprise. Then another 20% will starve to death during the next six months because the volcanic ash will cover the earth and keep out sunlight for six months. About 10% of the population (about 600 million) will survive. He said NASA's top scientists wanted to go to Mars and survive but that didn't work out.

So they are making a space station which will be able to maneuver itself on the other side of earth, using earth as a shield between the space station and Planet X. This way the top scientists will live. He said it is already affecting Neptune's gravitational pole and once it gets close to Pluto, it will take only three months to get here. He confirmed what Mark said (although he never heard of this book), which is that Planet X goes very slowly and then very, very fast all of a sudden. But, once near Pluto it will be a red dot in the sky which will gradually get bigger during several months, and can be seen with the naked eye six weeks before the pole shift. He confirmed that the northern inland part of the States is good; it is where the scientists are going. This will be near the equator after the shift."

"After 03/03/03, as it approaches the inner solar system, it's suppose to accelerate rather quickly below the ecliptic, passing behind and below the sun, before it comes back up from beneath the sun at a 33 degree angle to make it's final passage approx. 5/15/03. 

It will bisect the ecliptic between the orbits of Mercury and Venus passing just above and ahead of the earth in it's orbit and passing almost directly over top of Mars. "

http://www.cyberspaceorbit.com/planx.htm

"I don't refute the authenticity of the 2001 KX76 sightings, but don't confuse this tiny insignificant snowball with what's possibly coming at us from the other direction.  It was projected that such a diversionary tactic might be foisted in order to get people looking in the opposite direction as we near the pass over year.  I don't know if 2001 KX76 was intended as such a diversion or not, however it's discovery is right on time and it is basically in the opposite direction.

If Nibiru / Planet X is of interest, you should be watching below and to the left of where Saturn is now in the sky, (if you have access to an observatory-grade IR scope).   See blue sight-line below.

Note that Pluto's orbit is pulled off-center in the roughly the same direction and inclination of Nibiru's last "exodus" from the inner solar system.  Possibly the slow distant orbit of the Sun's binary star, (Nibiru's other foci),  would explain why it's approach has drifted somewhat from the direction that it's last passage pulled Pluto's orbit."

Note the difference in locations between Kent Steadman's analysis and the Discovery News analysis (above). Would the main stream media mislead us to look in a direction that may be false? Possibly. ~ Len

Space Exploration

Bob Dole pushed for an operational Star Wars by the year 2003, Missile Defense and Asteroid Defense is to be operational by 2003, the NASA Q&A site indicating anxiety over an asteroid strike in 2003, comet smashing operation Deep Impact to be ready by 2003, and the possibility of a Mars Passby in 2003 causing a pole shift. Where the NASA 1997 Launch Manifest used to show no activity beyond 2003, the Space Station is to be dedicated in 2003, the Mars Express must be ready by June 2003, and is a Return Flight. Air to Breathe and Propellant on Mars are to be created by 2003, and a Space Escape is available for the rich by 2003, with European participation and Human Exploration, the mission Postponed until 2003 in spite of Setbacks, with Enhanced Telecom by 2003.  Lawrence Livermore is developing a Crystal Laser by 2003, the SOHO Sunscan continued to 2003, the Solar Cycle moved to 2003, space Interferometers and a mission to Europa launched in 2003, Sea Launch of satellites expanded to 2003, NASA's GIFTS Mission targeting early 2003, and an ESA Rendezvous with a comet is planned for 2003.

War, Finance, and Nuclear Disarmament

A pattern of pointers to the year 2003 can be found in plans laid by the establishment. Weinberger predicts a War with Mexico in 2003, and the Russian predict Disaster in 2003.  Recently the Pentagon included a 20 Billion Stash in their budget to prepare for the year 2003, PDD 63 ensuring infrastructure protection by 2003, the DoD Records are to be consolidated by 2003, Base Closings by 2003, and Navy Plans show them intent on refurbishing their ships by 2003. Both super powers agreed in Start II to reduce their Nuclear Weapons by 2/3 by the year 2003, including nukes in Russian Subs, Nuclear Wastes stored in Nevada by 2003, with Monitoring in place by 2003, the ABM System is to be in place by 2003, SAFTA is to be in place by 2003, Land Mines are to be eliminated by 2003, and disposing of Biological Weapons scheduled for late 2003 but with a Catch. Medicare is expected to go bankrupt in 2003, Social Security eligibility changes are pushed past 2003, a Balanced Budget is pushed past 2003 as is NOx Compliance, the Alaska Coffers empty by 2003, electric utility Deregulation targets 2003, and Fuel Cells cost effective by 2003. Japan's IRIS launched in early 2003, reform of Japan's Finances targets 2003, the massive Chinese Yangtze Dam to be in place by 2003, the European Framework Program changed to be completed by 2003, German Nuclear Plants closed by 2003, an international Search and Rescue agreement is in place through the year 2003, and Firearms Registration in Canada must be complete by the year 2003.

Independent Researchers

Hoagland has insider info on a 2003 catastrophy, Sylvia Browne's Mayan Calendar puts 2003 at the end date, and a Baktun Analysis confirms this, and the Great Pyramid Dateline does not go past 2003, Russian Rumors cite the end of the world in 2003, and a Ghostwolf Prophecy predicts a pole shift in 2003 with several days of darkness. 

http://explorezone.com/archives/99_10/07_new_planet.htm

After studying 13 comets whose orbits seem to have been affected by a massive object far beyond Pluto, a British scientist announced today that there may be a previously unknown and very large planet orbiting the Sun. Separately, three astrophysicists are set to propose that a brown dwarf lurks in the outer reaches of our solar system. Brown dwarfs are near-stars that never gathered enough fuel to become true stars; they can be many times more massive than Jupiter. If either object is confirmed to exist, researchers will have a whole new batch of theories to create about how comets are formed, how they evolve, and how some are set on devastating paths toward Earth.

The two studies combined also open the possibility that a host of unfound planet-like objects may one day be added to our current nine-item list. John J. Matese, a physics professor at the University of Louisiana, writes of the possible brown dwarf, based on a study of 82 comet trajectories, in an upcoming issue of the journal Icarus. Matese told explorezone.com that it's "very plausible" that there are several unknown planets and/or brown dwarfs orbiting the Sun. "We suggest that this (brown) dwarf may only be the most likely to be detected during this epoch," Matese said, adding the cautionary note that "the existence of the object we discuss is not certain." The brown dwarf would not likely have formed from the disk of gas and dust out of which the other planets were born, Matese and his colleagues say.

Possible brown dwarf 

What's next? 

http://xfacts.com/x2.htm

In 1982, NASA themselves officially recognised the possibility of Planet X, with an announcement that 'some kind of mystery object is really there - far beyond the outermost planets'. One year later, the newly launched IRAS (Infrared Astronomical Satellite) spotted a large mysterious object in the depths of space. The Washington Post summarised an interview with the chief IRAS scientist from JPL, California, as follows:

"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... 'All I can tell you is that we don't know what it is', said Gerry Neugebauer, chief IRAS scientist.

The 6,000 year old Sumerian descriptions of our solar system include one more planet they called "Nibiru", which means "Planet of the crossing".The descriptions of this planet by the Sumerians match precisely the specifications of "Planet X" (the Tenth Planet), which is currently being sought by astronomers in the depths of our own Solar System. Why has Planet X not been seen in recent times? Views from modern and ancient astronomy, which both suggest a highly elliptical, comet-like orbit, takes Planet X into the depths of space, well beyond the orbit of Pluto.

Are people trying to locate this mysterious visitor? Are observatories attempting to validate and provide scientific proof?

Troubled Times members are actively soliciting help in locating the 12th Planet, which requires, at this time, a high powered telescope due to its distance at this time. A Web Search via a web telescope was started in 1999.

On Feb 7, 2001 the 12th Planet was Sighted at the coordinates given by the Zetas at a Swiss Observatory, the Neuchatel, but this appeared to have been a Non-Offical use of the observatory. The Zetas explain, Why Now? On April 1, 2001 a second sighting was made at the Lowell observatory in Flagstaff, AZ, again at the Zeta coordinates given for that date. This time Details on what was sighted were provided, and Confirmation. On April 8, 2001, a third sighting was made at Gordon Macmillan Southam observatory. This time curious Stalling actions on the part of observatory personnel was noted, and later an Admission and a temporary observatory Closing. The Zetas explain, Why Stall?

On Jan 5, 2002 Imaging Began as a result of sci.astro debates ongoing.

For information on ongoing TEAM activities, contact Nancy or Michel.

http://www.zetatalk.com/theword/tword032.htm

ZetaTalk states this is a Comet Visible and states 2003 will be the next passage. The Zetas provided the Path of this inbound planet and the degree of Variance to anticipate.

 For those doing a serious look, the Zetas have provided the Coordinates (Convert to degrees) and the Visibility Factors to consider, and the latest sci.astro Viewing Specs summarize it all. Viewing in 2000 and 2001 are aided by Side of the Eye viewing. An observatory Sighting was first made based on these Zeta coordinates on Feb 7, 2001, followed by a Second sighting on April 1, 2001. 

The Zetas Explain, Why Now? A Third sighting encountered stalling, and the Zetas Explain, Why Stalling? Details on these and subsequent sightings on the TEAM page. In early 2002, Imaging began. 

It approaches from Orion at an ultimate 32 Degree Angle to the ecliptic, assuming a Retrograde Orbit. The riddle of why Sitchen feels it may approach from Sagittarius has been solved. The Point of Passage has been diagramed. The 12th Planet has a Reddish Glow and has a visible Magnitude, though until 6 months before passage will not be that Bright due to its Distance from Earth. 

The Troubled Times TEAM established to search for the 12th Planet has calculating the passage based on a Table of Distance based on Variables in an Equation taking into consideration the Orbit and Transit Time. Sites such as XFacts are assisting. A pending Asteroid Pass points the public to Orion, encouraging a Look-See, reversing a cover-up.

Date: 12/31/01 3:19:26 PM Pacific Standard Time

What the sunrise may look like on 5/15/03 with Venus and Mercury rising along the ecliptic just ahead of the sun. Planet X will be just to the left of the rising sun with it's debris tail being blown away from the sun at 33 degrees to the ecliptic by the solar wind. In the bible during Moses time, it was said they followed a pillar of fire in the east. Could this be what they were observing?

Date: 12/31/01 3:06:12 PM Pacific Standard Time

I've plotted the current position and approximate path of Planet X over the next 15 months, as reported by ZetaTalk, as accurately as I can using StarFinder II.

By 03/03/03 you should be able to locate it with a high-quality amature scope, but for the moment it is too dark and too distant to see it without IR equipment.

After 03/03/03, as it approaches the inner solar system, it's suppose to drop rather quickly below the ecliptic, passing behind and below the sun, before it makes it's final passage approx. 5/15/03. (Saturn's position is accurate as of 12/31/01)

http://www.cyberspaceorbit.com/planx2.htm

After 03/03/03, as it approaches the inner solar system, it's suppose to accelerate rather quickly below the ecliptic, passing behind and below the sun, before it comes back up from beneath the sun at a 33 degree angle to make it's final passage approx. 5/15/03.

Note: See the diagram in the table cell above entitled, "Has a Sighting Been Made?"

It will bisect the ecliptic between the orbits of Mercury and Venus passing just above and ahead of the earth in it's orbit and passing almost directly over top of Mars.

Keep in mind the orbital diagrams [to the right] have exaggerated the size of the planets relative to the size of the orbits so that you can differentiate them, which makes it appear as if this will be even more of a hair-parter than it already is. The planets are shown in their positions as they will be on May 15, 2003. My plots are approximate and are probably off by a smidge. (These are the images in the right-hand table cell)

This page does not attempt nor pretend to know the absolute TRVTH. This page instead attempts to collate the most significant data on the topic of PlanetX - also known as Nibiru - and present it in one area for your viewing edification. My own conclusions are as follows:

1) There is indeed one more planet in our solar system that we have yet to catalog.

2) It may indeed be on a very long elliptical orbit about tow suns - our own and one other 18 times the distance of the Sun to Pluto, outside the orbit of Pluto.

3) It may be arriving well within our own lifetime - possibly in 2003 as some researchers assert.

What will happen when it does arrive? Read Velikovsky. Yes I do accept that Velikovsky has never been validated yet, if there is a planet that will intersect our own orbital plane, then the effects from earthquakes, to lightening storms, to tsunamis, and perhaps even to visitations from another race may indeed be imminent. I am from New England. In 1978, we had a snow storm that left up to 16 feet of snow in some areas (when you count the drifts). It snowed steadily for nearly seven days. Many of my friends thought me foolish - "he's stocking food! He's buying water supplies! He's got a great supply of wine and beer too! He even bought army medical kits, batteries, flashlights, emergency lamps, etc ...". Yes I became the focal point of neighborhood entertainment. That is, until the snow began. And still they laughed on Day 2, and Day 3. By Day 4, one of my friends requested if he could stay with me and my wife. The snow ended on Day 7. Where there were no drifts, the snow was 6' deep. Where there were drifts, the snow was up to 16' deep. They were finding people frozen solid in their cars up to two weeks after the snow ended! We were not allowed to drive in our own city for one week after the snow ended and prohibited from parking in other major cities for up to one month. He was no longer laughing.

Bottom line .... we live in a strange and wondrous universe. A creation which we take for granted that it will never change yet, the only thing of any permanence in our fragile lives is the concept of change. Plan for today yet prepare for tomorrow .... In The One Spirit .... ~ Be at Peace ~
