Here we go again, next doom scenario!



AN invisible star may be circling the Sun and causing deadly comets to bombard the Earth, scientists said yesterday.
The brown dwarf - up to five times the size of Jupiter - could be to blame for mass extinctions that occur here every 26 million years.

The star - nicknamed Nemesis by Nasa scientists - would be invisible as it only emits infrared light and is incredibly distant.

Nemesis is believed to orbit our solar system at 25,000 times the distance of the Earth to the Sun.

As it spins through the galaxy, its gravitational pull drags icy bodies out of the Oort Cloud - a vast sphere of rock and dust twice as far away as Nemesis.

These "snowballs" are thrown towards Earth as comets, causing devastation similar to the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.

Now Nasa boffins believe they will be able to find Nemesis using a new heat-seeking telescope that began scanning the skies in January.

The Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer - expected to find a thousand brown dwarfs within 25 light years of the Sun - has already sent back a photo of a comet possibly dislodged from the Oort Cloud.

Scientists' first clue to the existence of Nemesis was the bizarre orbit of a dwarf planet called Sedna.

Boffins believe its unusual, 12,000-year-long oval orbit could be explained by a massive celestial body.

Mike Brown, who discovered Sedna in 2003, said: "Sedna is a very odd object - it shouldn't be there.

"The only way to get on an eccentric orbit is to have some giant body kick you - so what is out there?"

Professor John Matese, of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, said most comets come from the same part of the Oort Cloud.

He added: "There is statistically significant evidence that this concentration of comets could be caused by a companion to the Sun."

What do you guys think, true, false considering the Sun activity lately and the large amount of comets?

Why worry,there aint much we can do about it is there...if nature decides it's time,it's time..go out with a smile..

This brown dwarf they're talking about, was first mistaken to be Nibiru, so what the hell is NASA rambling about making this a shocking discovery and claim it might wipe us out definitely.

Also I couldn't find anything on the NASA site about this "new" discovery.

I just don't get it. But I like to see more on this article, because it has great resemblance with the Sun's activity and the large number of comets, which we indeed found here on DTV.

And a beer man

Very well said, DrJones. That indeed is the truth.

I was browsing the internet for some previous information by NASA about Nemesis. And I did get one. More than a year ago, NASA knew about what THE SUN published today.

Here it is...

The Question
(Submitted November 30, 1996)
Do you have any new information on the Nemesis Star,the so called companion star to our Sun ?
The Answer

To recap the story of Nemesis (see, e.g., 1990 October issue of Scientific American): in 1984, Raup & Sepkoski claimed that mass extinctions, like the one that killed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, occurred every 32 million years. Since the favored theory for the demise of dinosaurs is an asteroid or cometary impact, the periodicity would suggests some mechanism to disturb the comets in the Oort cloud every 32 million years. Richard Muller and others hypothesized that a faint companion star, nicknamed Nemesis, that orbits the Sun every 32 million years, could explain this.

Strange thing also is, this scenario was already made by certain pseudo-scientist claiming the planet Nibiru will come to our solar system and will create disaster because of its great gravity.

In this article NASA claims it to be Nemesis. Nemesis could be another name for Nibiru




A comet is heading for the Sun to cause a huge impact?

Say:

This already was a proven fact Aladin, they indeed found a huge brown dwarf outside our solar system on which certain people thought it to be Nibiru.

The first quote is indeed easy to mistake, the quote which might be true, is the second one. It is orbiting the Solar System, not only the Sun.

ANOTHER NAME HERCOLUBUS

Indeed you're correct different names for same scenario, bit strange isn't it

Add Huevos Rancheros to that


One could reasonably argue that it does exist, it is just a matter of time to confirm it.
