Nibiru is said to have been seen somewhere behind the sun. You can see it in Antarctica at this time. Or so the people who claimed to have seen it have said. I can assure you that if a brown dwarf star planet thing was heading twards the inner solar system, we could see it everywhere by now. And especially not if it was due in 2012. If it was real, it would make appearance some time in late 2015 early 2016. Give or take a year . But now there is no proof of Nibiru's being. So.Nibiru is currently behind the minds that made it. ( For now? )

What is Planet Nibiru?

Recently, there have been a lot of false myths spread about a strange planet called Nibiru that comes through the solar system every 3600 years and causes major destruction, but these are just myths without any scientific evidence to back them up. Here are some of the false claims about Nibiru and explanations about why they're false: # Nibiru is the size of Jupiter -- We have observed dwarf planets on the far edges of the solar system thousands of times smaller than Jupiter. If something as large as Jupiter was out there, it would be easily visible to amateur astronomers worldwide.# Nibiru is bright like a second sun -- Do you see a second sun shining in the sky at night? No, neither do I.# Nibiru will pass by us on December 21, 2012 -- In order for Nibiru to get to us in the next 4 years, it would have to be closer than the orbit of Saturn, making it easily visible in the sky. # Nibiru can be seen at location 05:34:30,-02:10:13 in Microsoft's telescope program -- First take a look at Jupiter, that is the size and brightness of object you are looking for. Then go to those coordinates, and see what you think.# The inhabitants of Nibiru are Gods that created humans on Earth # Nibiru can't be seen right now because it's behind the Sun -- The Earth keeps moving around the Sun in our orbit. Anything that's behind the Sun now would be visible in a month. But the claims about Nibiru being hidden behind the Sun have continued for years. This also contradicts the coordinates given in item #4. # You can only see Nibiru from certain places on Earth -- All objects in the southern sky are visible everywhere in the southern hemisphere of the Earth, and in part of the northern hemisphere as well. Similarly, all objects in the northern sky are visible everywhere in the northern hemisphere of the Earth, and in part of the southern hemisphere.# NASA set up an observatory in Antarctica to track Nibiru -- Antarctica has the advantage of high altitude and dry air, but you can't see anything there that can't be seen in the rest of the southern hemisphere (see previous item) and Antarctica gets continuous sunlight from September through March, making an observatory completely unusable for half the year. Also, the coordinates given in item #4 are in the northern sky, not visible from Antarctica. Nibiru is the ancient Akkadian name for the planet Jupiter.


What constellations are visible from Earth?

There are 88 recognized constellations visible from Earth. Some of the most famous ones include Orion, Ursa Major, Scorpius, and Cassiopeia. The visibility of constellations varies depending on the time of year and your location on Earth.


Are there any 2009 updates on the planet nibiru?

There is no such planet. This is all a myth. The only thing I could find on Nibiru is Wormwood a star that is mentioned in Revelations. People say it's going to arrive here in 2012 and cause a poleshift, but personally I think it's a bunch of Bull. Nibiru is not the planet you are looking for, it is Marduk or Planet X which are the same.


How true is that planet x is coming to earth?

No. Believers of the Nibiru Cataclysm Theory claim that Nibiru, a large, planet-like object, has some sort of 3600 year orbital period with relation to Earth. The founder of the "theory," Nancy Lieder, claimed that Nibiru is a terrestrial planet four times Earth's size. She claimed that she knew this because of psychic powers she received from a communications device implanted in her brain by large grey aliens called "Zetas," which supposedly want to warn Earth of its oncoming doom. Lieder's original prediction for the collision of Earth and Nibiru was May, 2003. She claimed that the perihelion of comet Hale-Bopp was a ruse, to draw attention from the approach of the titanic (for a terrestrial) planet. When no cataclysm occurred, she removed her original posts about it on her website (including on that suggested people should put down and eat their pets in preparation for the disaster). When asked about it, she claimed that it had been a ruse of her own, to throw of the government. She said that if the world's governments knew the true date of the cataclysm, they would have time to enforce martial policy and effectively massacre their citizens (she gave no explanation for why this would be done). Since its founding, the Nibiru Cataclysm Theory has snowballed into several pseudoscientific cults, some of which have incorporated religious beliefs into the original "theory." Many do not even acknowledge the original founding, and some even claim support for it in religious texts. As for the origin of the idea for "Nibiru," it has much less theatrical beginnings. 'Nibiru' is the term assigned to Jupiter by ancient Babylonian astronomers. Since the reawakening of curiosity about the idea of a large planet that can cause disaster, many planets, and other objects, have been purported as "Nibiru." People have claimed the planets Ceres, Neptune, Pluto, Eris, and Sedna are Nibiru, simply mislabeled. Other cults have now decided that Nibiru is not a planet at all, but is an enormous star (the star V838 Monocerotis is often referred to by followers of the myth as Nibiru). The title "Planet X" is a not, despite what many say/think, out of ignorance, a reference to "Nibiru." Supporters of the myth have claimed that "Planet X" is the name that NASA has given to Nibiru, as part of a cover up (they have explained the denial of Nibiru's existence by astronomers as a large conspiracy). However, the term "Planet X" is an unofficial nickname given to new planet candidates that don't have a name, before a permanent title is assigned. Pluto was once referred to as "Planet X" before being named 'Pluto.' "Planet X" no more refers to a specific planet than "John Doe" refers to a specific hospital patient. Regarding the ancient Mayan calendar, Nibiru is not suggested, except by conspiracy theorists, to be related to the dreaded apocalypse of 2012. The Mayan calendar was organized into a series of "Creation cycles," or ages. It marked 4 ajaw, 4 k'ank'in, December 21, 2012, as the end of a creation cycle, and therefore the beginning of a new one. There was no prediction of disaster. The idea that there will be some sort of catastrophe in 2012 is simply another pseudoscientific speculation, resulting in a modernized myth. Media, particularly Hollywood, has made great advantage of people's doubts and suspicions about an ancient prediction, resulting in even further confusion. This has, as can be expected, been incorporated into parts of the Nibiru doctrine, resulting in claims by some cult members that the rumored disaster of 2012 will be either a collision with or a passing over of Nibiru. In synopsis, no, absolutely no evidence whatsoever suggests that Earth is going to collide with anything, let alone something as large as "Nibiru" (which would be as large in the sky as the sun, if it really were going to collide with us anytime soon, assuming it could exist). All empirical evidence currently suggests that Nibiru is simply a pseudoscientific myth, and that Earth is completely safe from outside threats.

How devastating could the planet nibiru be to earth?

Not much. It's widely believed that it will have no effect at all. It will be as though Nibiru doesn't even exist. Exactlylike that, in fact.

Is Nibiru a myth?

Yes, Nibiru is a myth. Supporters of the Nibiru cataclysm cult and its variations often claim that the scientific community's denial of its existence is some sort of cover up. However, there is no evidence of Nibiru's existence beyond the word of a possibly mentally imbalanced "psychic" named Nancy Lieder, who claimed that Nibiru was going to crash into Earth in May 2003. She also suggested that people put down and eat their pets. When Nibiru failed to crash into Earth, or appear at all, she withdrew her claim, and said that she made it in the first place to throw off the government. Her reasoning is that if the world's governments were to know of the actual date of the Nibiru disaster, they would be able to enforce martial law, and would keep citizens from somehow escaping the disaster, all part of some grand conspiracy. There is no evidence of the rational mind to support such claims.


Does nibiru planet touch the earth?

No. Nibiru is a mythological planet-like object associated with an apocalypse. Supporters of the Niburu myth claim that Nibiru somehow appears near Earth every 3000 or so years. The major "prophet" of Nibiru mythology, Nancy Lieder, claimed that Nibiru would collide with Earth in May 2003. She also suggested that all people put down and eat their pets. She later retracted her claim, saying that it was a ploy to throw the government off her scent, saying that if she disclosed the actual date of the disaster, it would give governments time to enforce martial law to keep citizens from escaping 'doomsday.'


Is earth visible in morning or evening?

Earth is visible all the time to every human being.


Is there water on nibiru?

There is no Nibiru, therefore there is no water on Nibiru. Believers in the Nibiru myth differ widely in beliefs about what Nibiru actually is. The founder of the myth, Nancy Lieder, claimed Nibiru to be a terrestrial planet about four times Earth's size. However, since its founding, Nibiru has become figure in several religious cults, all of which say something different about its identity. Claims of Nibiru's identity range from dwarf planet to supergiant star. Some say it's the variable star V838 Monocerotus, while others even claim it's mistaken for one of the planets in our own system (mainly Neptune, Eris, and Sedna). Since no one that believes in Nibiru can seem to agree with other supporters of the myth as to what they actually believe in, whether or not Nibiru is supposed to have water is subject to individual imagination.


Is nibiru smooth?

Not at all. It is quite rough actually.


Is Nibiru also known as the 10TH planet possibly the cause of the lost city of Atlantis?

First of all, Nibiru doesn't exist. Second of all, there are eight planets now that Pluto has been demoted, so Nibiru (if it existed) would be the ninth planet.

What is the solution for nibiru planet?

Believers of the Nibiru myth claim a myriad of things about Nibiru. What is said of it varies from person to person. The founder of the Nibiru Cataclysm Theory ('theory' is an honorary title, in this case, as it doesn't even have enough evidence to be called a hypothesis), Nancy Lieder, originally claimed that Nibiru was going to crash into Earth in May 2003. She also encouraged people to put down and consume their pets, as a way to "prepare" for the disaster. Later, when no obviously no disaster occurred, she withdrew her claim, stating that it had been an elabourate ruse to confuse the government. She also said that if Earth's governments knew the actual date of the cataclysm, they would enforce martial law and massacre their citizens. (Lieder's sanity has come under question in the past, as she also claims to be a psychic, in communication with gray aliens called "Zetas," who supposedly gave her the Nibiru story). Since the founding of the myth, Nibiru followers have developed into many cults, each believing something different. Some claim there will be a collosal collision between Earth and Nibiru. Some believe it'll just amiably pass by our solar system.There is no scientific evidence of Nibiru at all, so the only real "solution" is to ignore it, and ignore those that might attempt to convince you of it. It is not a real problem, so it doesn't really need a solution.


What percentage of the stars visible from earth can be seen from the equator?

Approximately 50% of the stars visible from Earth can be seen from the equator, as this is the point on Earth where the greatest number of stars can be observed in either hemisphere. The other 50% of stars would be visible from the opposite hemisphere.


Only at the equator are all the stars visible over the course of the year?

At the equator, due to the earth's rotation, observers have a complete view of the sky including all stars over the course of a year. This is because the equator lies halfway between the poles, where the stars around the celestial poles are always visible. In contrast, at higher latitudes, some stars are not visible due to the earth's tilt and the respective hemispheres facing away from certain stars at different times.
