LONDON: In what sounds like a chilling script of a Hollywood science fiction
, scientists have claimed that an invisible star, five times the size of Jupiter, might be lurking near our solar system, occasionally kicking deadly comets towards the Earth.

According to scientists, the brown dwarf star is up to five times the size of Jupiter and could be responsible for mass extinctions
that occur on Earth every 26 million years.

They believe that the star nicknamed Nemesis or 'The Death Star" could be hidden beyond the edge of our solar system and only emits infrared light.

It is believed to orbit our solar system at 25,000 times the distance of the Earth to the Sun, the scientists said.

Ok, this was a very interesting article, worth your time to check out. I'm very interested in Sumerian mythology, and have yet to find a single shred of evidence backing up the Nibiru theory, other than anecdotal evidence passed down through ancient texts and word of mouth. I'm NOT saying this is Nibiru, or anything else from ancient history.. but it is a very interesting find. This is apparently what has been causing disturbances in the Oort cloud, and I'm glad they are very close to finding it.
Scientists are hypothesizing that this could be the 26 million year cycle extinction killer. Also possibly the cause of the recent comets that have slammed into the sun?
Yet.. when I saw what NASA had nicknamed it.. it sent a chill down my spine. "Nemesis". I'm sure all the Nibiru fanatics are going to jump on this one.. and possibly rightly so.. although this brown dwarf has not OFFICIALLY been found yet using Infrared telescopes, NASA typically finds what they are looking for.

I hope they find this star, as it does present a very real risk if it is perturbing the orbits of comits and hurling them into our neighborhood.

Thoughts?

en.wikipedia.org...

space is the ideal place for their use and most optical telescopes launched into space (such as the Hubble Space Telescope) can also perform infrared observations. The Herschel Space Observatory and the Spitzer Space Telescope and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) are dedicated solely to infrared observations.


If anything was out there emitting IR, we'd know about it.

Very true, however, there are a lot of objects out there emitting IR. Sometimes it can get messy and blend in with other objects. The technology is certainly able to find it, but do not discount human error, may just not have been noticed yet. They really don't even have a clue as to where to look yet. Like the article said, they are actively searching, so I have to assume they believe they WILL find it, just a matter of crunching the numbers and maybe a little luck

Based on this thread -Google Earth Keeping Planet X a Secret!- created in
late March of 2008.

It is probable that TPTB have known about this for quite sometime.

A lot of the other space crawling programs out there apparently have the same area blacked out or the like. You can probably search ATS and find oodles of information about the alleged conspiracy.

Good Day!

That's no moon. It's a space station

What's that moon thing called anyway never seen it.

that moon is a natural satellite orbiting Saturn and more commonly referred to as Mimas

No.

The mythical planet Niburu (invented by Sitchin) is supposed to be in an orbit which brings it into the inner Solar system every 3,600 years. This is an absurdity.

The hypothetical Nemesis would have a much longer and circular orbit and stays very (very) far from the inner (and outer, for that matter) Solar system.

I do see your point Phage. It's just well the timing of this thing
and hurling comets at us and all does seem to raise the possibility of an ele.
From what I'm understanding dosn't it Raise the chances? If it is found of course?

There is always the possibility of an ELE.

The Nemesis hypothesis talks about a 26 million year extinction cycle. I don't think the evidence presented for that cycle is very strong but in any case the last major extinction based on that theory occurred about 11 million years ago. So if you believe the 26 million year cycle is valid, you should believe we're pretty safe right now.

Though I seriously doubt this news source, I would say that should this report be accurate then the danger is not from an impact with the star more that it may interact with the oort cloud hurling comets inwards.

Though like I said I seriously doubt that this is in fact the case and I seriously doubt the credibility of the source.

All the best,

Korg.

Millennia ago, Egyptian and Celtic authors recorded prophetic warnings for the future and their harbinger signs are now converging on 2012. These predications are contained in The Kolbrin Bible, a secular wisdom text studied in the days of Jesus and lovingly preserved by generations of Celtic mystics in Great Britain.

Nearly as big as the King James Bible, this 3600-year old text warns of an imminent, Armageddon-like conflict with radical Islam, but this is not the greatest threat.

The authors of The Kolbrin Bible predict an end to life as we know it, by a celestial event. It will be the return of a massive space object, in a long elliptical orbit around our sun. Known to the Egyptians and Hebrews as the "Destroyer," the Celts later called it the “Frightener."

Manuscripts 3:4 When blood drops upon the Earth, the Destroyer will appear, and mountains will open up and belch forth fire and ashes. Trees will be destroyed and all living things engulfed. Waters will be swallowed up by the land, and seas will boil.

Manuscripts 3:5 The Heavens will burn brightly and redly; there will be a copper hue over the face of the land, ‘followed by a day of darkness. A new moon will appear and break up and fall.

Manuscripts 3:6 The people will scatter in madness. They will hear the trumpet and battlecry of the Destroyer and will seek refuge within dens in the Earth. Terror will eat away their hearts, and their courage will flow from them like water from a broken pitcher. They will be eaten u in the flames of wrath and consumed by the breath of the Destroyer.

Manuscripts 3:10 In those days, men will have the Great Book before them; wisdom will be revealed; the few will be gathered for the stand; it is the hour of trial. The dauntless ones will survive; the stouthearted will not go down to destruction.

The Destroyer is also known today as Wormwood, Nibiru, Planet X and Nemesis. There are also troubling prophetic correlations to the future predictions of Mother Shipton's "Fiery Dragon" and the "Red Comet" warning of the Mayan Calendar 2012. While these future predictions are uncertain at best, is it possible for us to know about the Destroyer's previous flybys with a great degree of certainty.
