Theoretical Physicist Brian Greene Thinks You Might Be a Hologram
How much of the universe can you pinch between your thumb and finger? Maybe a lot more than you think. Far reaches of the cosmos may lie less than a millimeter away. Whole other universes may be within your grasp. Even if you cannot see these distant places and other worlds, you may be in communication with them through that most familiar of forces, gravity.
Some string theorists have taken this idea further to explain a mystery of gravity that has perplexed physicists for some time – why is gravity so much weaker than the other fundamental forces? Does its carrier, the graviton, exist and where? The idea is that we do not feel gravity’s full effect in the everyday world. Gravity may appear weak only because its force is being shared with other spatial dimensions.

I don't even know what you mean by " spitting my dummy out".
You were rude to the OP and I called you out on it and I wasn't alone......the end.

The point is 'harte' and 'druscilla' back their arguments with cold, hard irrefutable facts. Surely you cannot ignore the findings of Michael Heisser who challenged Sitchin to a 'hands on' discussion on live TV (whilst Sitchin was alive of course) to have him explain exactly WHERE he got his translations from. Sitchin refused every time.
Sitchin, and his disciple Lloyd Pye have both been well and truly exposed as unadulterated frauds who's works should be placed in the same category as "Alice in Wonderland" and not to be taken seriously.

This weekend, my gf and I were watching a show about and they were talking about the return of Nibiru and the Annunaki, and she suggested it may exist in a parallel universe, and will 'phase' into this one at the end of December.
I thought about it, and it sounds plausible if it were possible, the other thing she said it might be like a Dyson Sphere type structure or like the Death Star from Star Wars, and might be out there somewhere, light speeding its way here.
If Nibiru exists, and I will say for the record, its highly doubtful, but if it does, these maybe reasons why we wont see it til its here.
Thoughts, other then the typical one liners that say it doesnt exist??

Well, how would one be aware of such a thing then? If there was a dimension sort of bumping up against ours, I would think there would still be anomolies spotted in this dimension..strange unexplainable tides and such...
But anyhow, we gotta eventually step into reality. Imagine for a moment looking at the sky and suddenly, as if by magic, a planet/sun/whatever just popped up...just the sheer thought pushes the limits of my imagination as it seems to incredibly unlikely..would be akin to suddenly watching my neighbors house disappear because it got sucked into a different dimension sort of thing.
I don't think the universe works like that. perhaps subatomic particles may drift in and out..but entire celestial bodies?...
After reading the "Source Field Investigations", ANYTHING is possible! Besides, any "qualified, respected" scientist isn't going reveal his findings if it crosses the grains of the Status Quo even it's completely plausible or to say he discovered something but can't give a "normal" explanation for it.
*Read the book!!*

In addition to my previous post, the following link is more specific from Dr. Michael S Heiser regarding Nibiru, as well as detailing how you, the common whatever, or whoever you are, can search Sumerian texts for any and all specifics regarding the name "Nibiru"
... about that Nibiru thing ...

That reminds me of a theory a physicist had (have to find info on her), she is trying to solve the problem of gravity and its weakness not making sense. She thinks it may be leaking from another dimension.

@ Harte & Druscilla
I've seen the material you so helpfully pony'd up as your rebuttal, because I've spent the last 20 + years researching...well the origins of man I guess you'd call it. I find them no more right or wrong than Sitchin's work. Sitchin interprets the text one way, and they interpret the text another way.
Originally posted by DruscillaI'm pretty sure no one in this thread is interested in convincing you of anything, as you're obviously incapable of entertaining theories and ideas outside of your rigid world views.
Originally posted by Druscilla However, what we are interested in is not having to read your rude and self-righteous comments insinuating we're all nerf-herders.

Yeah and maybe every time people go up in a hot air balloon it opens up a tiny tear in the multiverse which allows the goblins of dystopia to come in. And yes I just made that up -- just as you made up your OP, or your GF did.
I don't see how random stoner talk merits a thread, this is GRAY AREA buffoonery.

I'm pretty sure you weren't born yesterday. Cold, Hard, Irrefutable Facts? I'm sure you're aware that at one point it was a cold, hard, irrefutable fact that the sun revolved around the earth, which was flat. We're discussing old, dead languages that no one has actively spoken for millenia. It is open to a fair amount of interpretation. And I'm supposed to discount interesting research because some other researcher challenged Sitchin to some public media circus? Yeah I'm sure that would have been a real scholarly event.
Reasonable people realize no one has a patent on the truth. And in research you often find ideas and theories that have merit and some that do not. There are other researchers that have recently been coming to similar conclusions (notice SIMILAR, not identical) as Sitchin (not Nibiru specifically) and they aren't getting there using the same methods he did. People who haven't read Sitchin hold up Nibiru like that's the only thing he ever said. He wrote a lot of books and Nibiru was definitely not the most interesting thing in them.
Also, "Cold, Hard, Irrefutable Facts" do not give Harte and Druscilla the license to treat people like crap on a site where COURTESY IS MANDATORY.edit on 11/21/12 by Malynn because: (no reason given)

I'm just being hypothetical. its a theory.

If I understand you correctly, why can't it be someone looked at Hubble's images and expanded his or her bubble all the way up there which was noticed by an alien bubble over there which then set on a journey to the center of this (from the aliens perspective) alien bubble? Just being extremely hypothetical ofcourse.

I do not know 'Druscilla' at all but during my time on ATS I have found that 'harte' is very learned in this subject and has done the necessary homework on it. I like the way he explains things in language that I can understand instead of using words that I cannot pronounce let alone understand. I wouldn't say that he/she is a rude person unless he/she is verbally abused and a likewise retaliation is given.
