Behemoth

It has long been suspected that a large, hitherto unknown gas-giant-sized object exists in the Oort Cloud at the outer reaches of the Solar System. This planet or brown dwarf has been given a number of dissimilar titles including Tyche, Nibiru, Planet X and Nemesis. Given that NASA and a lot of prominent astrophysicists have found a great deal of believability in the basic idea, it’s not a notion that may be dismissed out of hand.

Perhaps the best known variant on the conception is one related with the name ‘Nibiru’ and the supposed Mayan foretellings in regards to the end of the world in 2012. Those theorists who assert that planet Nibiru exists tend to hold that at a good deal of point, either in 2012 or a heap of other date, a big life-bearing planet will sweep through the inner solar-system and wreak havoc. This mayhem may implicate a direct collision with Earth, or a near-pass which will disrupt our orbit to the extent that life as we recognise it becomes impossible.

On this idea, it is in general supposed that Nibiru has a highly elongated orbit that has a amount of time or around 3600 years. This may be given credence by pointing to respective cataclysms such as super-volcanic eruptions, pole-shifts and extinctions in our history that may be aligned to something like this 3600 year cycle.

Against this, however, is the sheer improbability that a Jupiter-sized object could be on the sort of orbit that would take it from the outer-reaches of the solar scheme to near the Earth in the time left among now and December 2012. Even if we discount the December 2012 claims, mainstream astrophysicists tend to balk at the idea of a Jupiter-sized planet having a 3600-year orbit that would sweep through the inner solar system. Planet Nibiru is unquestionably a theory on the fringes.

However, one suspects that a sure level of conservatism could be behind the reluctance of the scientific establishment to confess the possibleness of a planet such as Nibiru. ‘Planet Tyche’, as it has been dubbed, refers to a possible gas-giant or brown dwarf drifting around in the Oort Cloud that may be implied by NASA info which has yet to be wholly analysed. Could this be an olive-branch to the conspiracy theorists, or just an try to diminish the radical significations of the Planet X / Nibiru theories?

The info from NASA’s wide surveys of the outer solar scheme is expected to be ready by a lot of time in 2012. So one way or another, we must have a great deal of answers with regards to the existence of Tyche, Planet X or Nibiru by then.
