You asked for the details on an unknown planet and then insult others when they answer. You know for a comedian, you're not very funny. Maybe you should review the definition of "unknown".

Yes, there are two. One is in Sheffield, the other is in Barnsley. You don't mind traveling to the UK, do you?

It's hiding behind Uranus. Don't get a twist in your neck.

Here's the story. Apparently, it looks like smaller bodies are being deflected by the gravity of a large planet.

No, not at all. The hype is just that, Hype put out on YouTube, done with CGI and broadcast under a 'we have proof' banner, when all it does is boost viewership of some people who make movies and short clips, and gain huge viewership and a few royalties in advertising on the You Tube sites.

So does this massive, earth like planet exist, hiding away in a corner of space we have not explored yet, or is that second sun and moon just waiting to pop up in our sky one day? Or did the grey alien who was interviewed at Roswell just mention this all in passing?......Only on You Tube.....Bull****ers Paradise!!!

I first read about Nibiru about 25 years ago when I read Zechariah Sitchin's 7 book saga called the Earth Chronicles. I just found out about 3 months ago that it is due to return next spring.

Sitchin thinks the orbit is 3600 years or there abouts. Others like Gil Broussard thinks the orbit is more like 360 years.

Nibiru means the Planet of the Crossing. Broussard thinks it will pass us in March 2016 and then again on the way out late August - September 2016.

If that is true, we really are going to experience very quick and very drastic climate change, LOL! We will know for sure very soon. Stay tuned!

Okay - so does the resurgence of this topic have anything to do with the return of The X Files to television? I understand the Nibiru planet theory had communications with Greys.

Does Mulder know about this?

I think it has started as the light beams from the night sky have become quite regular these nights. And no, not photo shopped, actual photos of light beams from above. Maybe Mulder can explain?

It looks to me like search lights on the ground that are commonly used to advertise events like "Grand Openings"

Ice crystals in the air and lights from a shopping center billboards shinning upwards.

Not common, but so far we have had a few shows when the conditions are just right at night time.
