If you've got sparkles, angels, or both in your avatar, there's a splenid chance you believe in a lot more nonsense than I do.
There is no proof.... Simple as that.
The ones who truly care need to get outta the house and live a little.
The ones who dont should care less to argue about opinions... I mean come on already!!!
And the ones on the fence without proof either way are the ones who have strong reasoning skills.
A little research always helps but even then you go off someones words whom you dont even know you can trust.
The Universe is filled with possibilites and anyone who denys this has his head buried deep in a sandbox!! But hey, who am I to judge. If it feels good, go with it!! Lol!!!

Planets don't explode. The pieces could not reach escape velocity. As your link points out there isn't enough mass out there to form a planet.
Get a handle on some basics before chasing after lost causes.

Whatever. Can we prove there are no planets made of gummi bears? How do we know?!?!?

Planets don't explode because they do not create energy through fusion or fission. It would take an incredible amount of energy for a planet to overcome its own gravity.
Impossible is a good word. There are lots of impossible ideas. It is impossible for people to suddenly grow wings and fly. It is impossible for a bucket of water to suddenly becomes a bucket of gold. Just because some things are impossible doesn't mean that very unlikely issues are impossible.
I disagree wholeheartedly! I feel sorry for people who think they KNOW something cannot be. How scary life must be for them as we continue to find the "IMPOSSIBLE" is indeed possible!
Do you know how many science articles start like this, especially now in our time?
FOUR years ago, a particle accelerator in France detected six particles that should not exist (see Ghost in the atom). They are called tetraneutrons: four neutrons that are bound together in a way that defies the laws of physics.
Of course, their finding could have been an accident: four neutrons might just have arrived in the same place at the same time by coincidence. But that's ridiculously improbable.
Not as improbable as tetraneutrons, some might say, because in the standard model of particle physics tetraneutrons simply can't exist.
Established theory does allow the tetraneutron to exist - though only as a ridiculously short-lived particle. "
The possibility of something that passes us on a regular route and perturbs our planetary system is not a stupid idea.
And by the way, these latest findings certainly do not lend any credence to the theory of a wandering planet named Nibiru.

But a rogue (starless) planet, crashing through the solar system wouldn't exactly fit your description (or Sitchin's), would it?

Nope, not even close. In fact it's the opposite.

The cloud is not of beer which includes water, alcohol, and a number of complex carbohydrates. A number of complex molecules have been found in space including alcohols and water. Even more complex materials occur on comets. The question of course is what sorts of complex organic molecules do exist.
In fact it could account for a lot of things the planet has experienced in the past.

Such as...
Name one thing that science or physics as we know it could not possibly explain.
And if you say it has something to do with aliens, I swear to god...
Do you understand the implications of the new particle science finds? Someday you may realize that everything is indeed possible.
"Free-floating planets have been predicted to exist for quite some time and just last year, in May 2011, several orphan worlds were finally detected. But now, the latest research concludes there could be 100,000 times more free-floating planets in the Milky Way than stars.'
With estimates up to 100,000 nomad planets for every star in the galaxy, there could be literally quadrillions of wandering worlds out there, ranging in size from Pluto-sized to even larger than Jupiter.

As far as a Nibiru-type wandering world in our solar system right now the answer is no. There is no evidence or scientific basis whatsoever for such a planet. If it was out there and heading towards Earth for a December 21, 2012 meetup, we would have seen it or its effects by now.
Then why bring up nomad planets? They do not orbit anything.
I don't personally have a description of Sitchin's planet, and I have not read his work. I simply believe that the plausibility of a complete solar system or a single planet passing near us in a regular orbit is not an impossible supposition.

I don't understand those who completely discount this possibility at this time. Beyond that I don't understand their need to try to make people with seeking minds feel stupid and constantly put... them... down along with their ideas.
Not everyone who has unconventional beliefs are idiots, and who knows which ones will be proven right in the future.
Why not explore the possibilities together instead of the head long rush to call people stupid and make them feel small... not meaning you personally.
