Do We Have Two Suns?

04/25/2006 1:15 PM

Some researchers are suggesting that the sun is not the only star in our area, but may in fact be the dominant half of a binary system. I don't quite see how we could miss another star if it was that close to us, even if it is a brown dwarf. I would think that there would be a more dramatic effect on the orbits of the gas giants, but I guess I don't know for sure. The article says that the Kuiper Belt Objects Sedna and Xena have erratic orbits that can't be explained with current models for a single star system. Personally, I suspect the models might need some work.

I agree that it is very possible we are in a binary solar system. Not only the findings of Voyager II, plutos eratic orbit, and the simple fact that we see our solar system as flat and unlike all other solar systems are hints to me. I think one reason for the delays in discovery is the concept of time as we know it? If we really orbit two suns and mars did have water at one time in this orbit wouldn't "real time" be based on the orbit around both suns and not just one? How many students have we taught about one sun? How many text books? Who wants to announce the possible reality now?

I agree that the models need some work. The evidence for an inbound extremely heavy gravitational mass is now overwelming. I mean..... really..... do I need to add links here...just google Nibiru, planet x, destroyer etc. Ok so you have to sift through all the bull@#iT , but you will actually find some sites that offer an insight as to what is really happening. And it is really happening. The floods, snow storms, volcanoes, earthquakes, mudslides, hurricanes in the northern hemisphere and cylones in the southern hemisphere (Queensland is devistated) and of strenghths never before seen are just a harbinger of things to come. Get real people. Prepare now. Get to higher ground because the tidal influence of the pass of Nibiru will cause huge ocean waves from at least 1 kilometer in height up to 5 kilometers depending on where Nibiru crosses the ecliptic and where Earth is at the crossing. Coastal towns and cities will be ...well...destroyed.
