Critically examining the "End of the World"
Nibiru/PlanetX is real. Is it possible the Mayans knew our sun’s companion star is coming back in 2012?
The following is a question being asked on Yahoo Answers. Both the questions and answers given do not reflect the view of our website.
Question:
Nibiru/PlanetX is real. It was discovered by NASA in 1983 with a press release but after a short time it was retracted and they have been silent about it.

The Book of Revelation Chapter 8:11, John the Apostle was given the vision of a coming STAR called Wormwood. It was prophesied to bring about a massive global cataclysm when it pass around the sun.
The star is called “Wormwood” named after the bitter plant because when it pass by a third of the earth’s spring water will become contaminated and many people will die from drinking it.
Is it possible the Mayans knew our sun’s companion star is coming back in 2012? Perhaps they speculated that no one could possibly survive this pass-by so their calendar ends in 2012?

They interviewed Mayans who said they don’t believe this: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091011/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/lt_mexico_apocalypse2012;_ylt=AsNWWbP.p2Ryrwtvz8gUnVIDW7oF;_ylu=X3oDMTJ0anNvZ2YzBGFzc2V0A2FwLzIwMDkxMDExL2x0X21leGljb19hcG9jYWx5cHNlMjAxMgRwb3MDMgRzZWMDeW5fYXJ0aWNsZV9zdW1tYXJ5X2xpc3QEc2xrAzIwMTJpc250dGhlZQ–

You’re actually using a conspiracy theory website as”proof”? HA! Nothing will happen in 2012, Nibiru is not real. Stop asking questions like this.

Funny how this blogger only posted single-sentence (and sometimes single word or fragment) quotes with no context and doesn’t cite any sources.
Sounds like a lying, quote-mining (if they even are real quotes at all) moron to me. Until you can provide a cited, peer-reviewed article about “Nibiru”, I’m going to stick with “2012 Doomsday” being bull.

If the Mayans predicted the end of the world in 2012, why did they also make predictions for the year 4740, if no one will be around???
BECAUSE 2012 ISNT THE END OF THE WORLD.
It is also ironic that people think the Mayans could so specifically predict the end of the world – but failed to see the end of their culture coming 500 years before hand…
Lastly, how did you make the leap from PLANET X to a STAR? Planets are not stars.

No. The entire claim that the Earth was going to end in 2012 is based on a *misinterpretation* of the Mayan calender, which appears to those who don’t know how to read it to end in 2012.
In reality, the Mayan calender is a cyclic calender, meaning it runs in a cycle. (Much like a car’s odometer, which, when it reaches 999,999 miles, will click back over and start at 000,000 again.) The people who are claiming that the Mayans predicted the end of the world are reading the Mayan calender as if it was a linear calender like ours. It’s not. The Mayans did NOT predict the end of the world. They did NOT make any claims of the sort. The people who say that the Mayans said anything like that are people who know NOTHING about the Mayan culture, don’t know how to read the Mayan calender, and have NO idea what they’re talking about.
Either way, why anyone would attach any sort of significance to a perceived “prediction” made by an ancient civilization that couldn’t even predict it’s own downfall is beyond logical comprehension. (Not that any end-time theorists in the history of mankind are known for their logic or comprehension skills.) It’s particularly baffling that it’s Christians who seem to have grabbed on to this, and use it to back up their religion’s end-time fantasy, when under ANY other circumstances they would say that the Mayans beliefs were “false beliefs”.

No, it’s not real. Get a clue.
And no, the Mayans didn’t know very much at all, and didn’t know anything about a star/planet that doesn’t exist. They didn’t even have an accurate calendar (close, but no cigar). The “end” of their calendar is no more auspicious than the end of a calendar you buy every year — its last day is Dec. 31st, so you toss it and buy a new one. Theirs lasted longer, but the implication of its “end” is the same — toss it and carve a new one.
There’s no “pass-by.” Anything supposedly that large coming in 3 years would be visible to every amateur astronomer in the world by now (and I’m one of them) — there’s no such thing.
Peace.

The Sun HAS NO COMPANION STAR.
There isn’t any confusion about this in the scientific community. The people making the “Nibiru” predictions understand nothing about astronomy or, more importantly, the effects of gravity.
If our Sun had a companion star, one would not be locked in orbit around the other. Rather (like all other celestial bodies which maintain an orbit), the two of them would orbit around a common “center of gravity” which would be located somewhere between the two.
It should be noted that even the Sun and planets orbit around a common center of gravity. However, due to the Sun’s mass, the common center of gravity is actually within the Sun itself, so there’s no reason to really make a distinction about the fact the Earth doesn’t orbit around the Sun so much as it does its common center of gravity with the Sun.
In the case of a star, however, this common center of gravity would probably be roughly in between the two stars, given how little variation we commonly see in stellar masses. So, even if Nibiru existed, it would never “pass through” the Solar System, and certainly wouldn’t ever pass close enough to Earth to cause any sort of major disturbances. It would, instead, seem to orbit around the edge of the Solar System as it and the Sun revolved around their common center of gravity.
Since we know there are no stars locked in such an orbit, or even within light years of the Sun, we know that Nibiru doesn’t exist.
As for the notion there’s a rogue Jupiteresque planet hanging around, why don’t you just listen to what NASA has to say itself: http://astrobiology.nasa.gov/ask-an-astrobiologist/question/?id=596
And, I can believe them because Jupiter’s visible to the naked eye if you know where to look… and it’s nowhere near close enough to have any sort of effect on the Earth.
Look at it this way. The moon is nearly a quarter million miles away, and it’s only about 1/6th the size of Earth. Jupiter’s diameter is eighteen times as wide as the Earth’s… so this Nibiru would appear the size of the moon in the sky if it came within 16,000,000 miles of us.
Seen anything like that yet?

While its mission did not involve a search for Planet X, the IRAS space observatory made headlines briefly in 1983 due to an “unknown object” that was at first described as “possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this Solar System”.[34] However, further analysis revealed that of several unidentified objects, nine were distant galaxies and the tenth was “intergalactic cirrus”; none were found to be Solar System bodies.[35]
35- A paper in the Astrophysical Journal.
Why are there no reputable scientists saying PlanetX exists? Because of a conspiracy?
Please. There are facts, and there are beliefs that have no grounding in reality. You, my friend, are an owner of one of the latter.

The Mayans were savages that thought sacrificing humans to their gods was a great idea.

As you have never actually read your Bible, it is beneath me to read it TO you, so I will just suggest you do so before making a fool of yourself again.
As to NASA, the IRAS discovered a lot of new things. That was its purpose. Sorta like EVERYTHING that NASA does. Discover new things.
One of the things IRAS discovered in 1983 was the first of the IRGs. Infrared Galaxies. Now we have IRGs and LIRGs and VLIRGs and even ELIRGs!
Thank you NASA for not just thinking that galaxy 10 billion light years away was a planet wandering around aimlessly in our outer Solar System… because that would be SILLY!

The object seen by IRAS in 1983 was later conformed to be a distant galaxy. NASA is not silent about it. There’s plenty of information if you look for it. Cranks prefer to pretend it’s been kept secret because it spoils their fantasy world of conspiracy and doom.
The Mayans said nothing about any companion star nor about the end of the world in 2012. These stories have all been invented by crackpots.
