scope out the Orion area using the South Pole Telescope for a better view because you can't just look up at the night sky and expect to see it.
~ If you don't believe Nibiru exists then why tell me you don't? What is your motive for that? Do not visit this thread to bash it out of
disbelief. Visit this thread out of interest on the subject, that is all I ask, Thanks

The Mission Statement for ATS is to Deny Ignorance -- and that goes both ways. The specific point of this thread is not to discuss whether or not
Nibiru Exists, but is to specifically postulate that Google Sky is intentionally hiding a picture of "Planet X". It is well within ATS's mission
for people to point out possible fallacies with this statement. For instance, if Planet X was really right in that blacked-out area, then amateur
astronomers all over the world who have a good view of Orion should be able to see Planet X in this location through their own telescopes.
That's not the same as saying Nibiru does not exist -- however I personally don't know of any scientific proof "Nibiru" exists, but I'm sure
there could be another body somewhere out there that may be the size of a planet. If someone wants to call any newly-discovered large body "Planet
X", than that's fine with me...but that does not mean it is the Nibiru of legend.
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY...
The South Pole itself is not a great place from which to view Orion -- Orion will skirt the horizon at the South Pole all year long. It is much more
visible from the middle latitudes. Astronomers at these middle latitudes will have a much better view of this Planet X if it is in fact near Orion,
and should be able to see it.
Also...the link you provided in your OP stated that the Planet X they mentioned was coming from a "blind spot" south of the Earth. This is nowhere
near Orion, so I don't understand how the Planet X mentioned in the link you provided has anything to do with this "blackened" portion of Google
Sky.
Since there is no relation between the purported location of the Planet X identified in that link and the blackened area in Google Sky,
how does the link support your claim that Google Sky is hiding Planet X?
