Scientists Believe Tyche Is Nibiru!!!!

If you grew up thinking there were nine planets and were shocked when Pluto was demoted five years ago, get ready for another surprise. There may be nine after all, and Jupiter may not be the largest.

The hunt is on for a gas giant up to four times the mass of Jupiter thought to be lurking in the outer Oort Cloud, the most remote region of the solar system. The orbit of Tyche (pronounced ty-kee), would be 15,000 times farther from the Sun than the Earth's, and 375 times farther than Pluto's, which is why it hasn't been seen so far.

But scientists now believe the proof of its existence has already been gathered by a Nasa space telescope, Wise, and is just waiting to be analysed.

The first tranche of data is to be released in April, and astrophysicists John Matese and Daniel Whitmire from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette think it will reveal Tyche within two years. "If it does, John and I will be doing cartwheels," Professor Whitmire said. "And that's not easy at our age."

Once Tyche has been located, other telescopes could be pointed at it to confirm the discovery.

Whether it would become the new ninth planet would be decided by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). The main argument against is that Tyche probably formed around another star and was later captured by the Sun's gravitational field. The IAU may choose to create a whole new category for Tyche, Professor Matese said.

The IAU would also have the final say about the gas giant's name. To the Greeks, Tyche was the goddess responsible for the destiny of cities. Her name was provisionally chosen in reference to an earlier hypothesis, now largely abandoned, that the Sun might be part of a binary star system with a dim companion, tentatively called Nemesis, that was thought responsible for mass extinctions on Earth. In myth, Tyche was the good sister of Nemesis.

Tyche will almost certainly be made up mostly of hydrogen and helium and will probably have an atmosphere much like Jupiter's, with colourful spots and bands and clouds, Professor Whitmire said. "You'd also expect it to have moons. All the outer planets have them," he added.

What will make it stand out in the Wise data is its temperature, predicted to be around -73C, four or five times warmer than Pluto. "The heat is left over from its formation," Professor Whitmire said. "It takes an object this size a long time to cool off."

Most of the billions of objects in the Oort Cloud – a sphere one light year in radius stretching a quarter of the distance to Alpha Centauri, the brightest star in the southern constellation – are lumps of dirty ice at temperatures much closer to absolute zero (-273C).

A few of these are dislodged from their orbits by the galactic tide – the combined gravitational pull from the billions of stars towards the centre of the Milky Way – and start the long fall into the inner solar system.

As these long-period comets get closer to the Sun, some of the ice boils off, forming the characteristic tails that make them visible.

Professors Matese and Whitmire first proposed the existence of Tyche to explain why many of these long-period comets were coming from the wrong direction. In their latest paper, published in the February issue of Icarus, the international journal of solar system studies, they report that more than 20 per cent too many of the long-period comets observed since 1898 arrive from a band circling the sky at a higher angle than predicted by the galactic-tide theory.

No other proposal has been put forward to explain this anomaly since it was first suggested 12 years ago. But the Tyche hypothesis does have one flaw. Conventional theory holds that the gas giant should also dislodge comets from the inner Oort Cloud, but these have not been observed.

Professor Matese suggests this may be because these comets have already been tugged out of their orbits and, after several passes through the inner solar system, have faded to the point that they are much harder to detect.

So if it is real, Tyche may not only be disrupting the orbits of comets, it may also overturn an established scientific theory.

I seriously don't know why members feel like they need to have as many views in their topics as possible.

I'm saying this because this is the second time today I'm seeing this topic with a simular statement. And in both cases the title Suggests "NIBURU CONFIRMED" "NIBURU NAMED BY SCIENTISTS", and the actual article itself doesn't even mention Niburu.

Infact from what I can remember Niburu is spose to be a planet that is far beyond our own solar system that rotates around the galaxy every 25,000 years.

Now of course this planet is located just outside our solar system, and I'm assuming it doesn't take long for its full orbit around the sun.

How long does it take for this "NEW" planet to orbit around the sun? Probably maybe 2 or 3 years max. Not 25,000 years.

YOU GUYS JUST DON'T GIVE UP DO YOU????

You have named well over 1,000 planets and Comets Niburu, and not offering one piece of dam good evidence to back it up. And Even I know the story behind Niburu better than the people that claim it exists.

IF I ever become MOD I would edit any titles that are misleading and change the title that suits the topic.

Something just needs to be done. And the members that do this don't stick up for themselves, and say why they do it.

It's only fair.

Instead of shouting at everyone post the story

Ok.

Well here it goes......

Niburu is spose to be this huge gigantic planet, bigger than Venus right? Apparently between 25,000 years and 60,000 years ago it came into the same orbit as earth and took away a massive chunk of earth. And that massive chunk of earth is still seen today.

Want to have a guess at what that chunk of earth turned into? The Very moon we see here in our skys.

Anyway the acients have written in their texts and stories warning about this disaster. Warning the people that this may happen again. And have passed it down by generation to generation.

Today we have the advantage of technology to be able to see what is coming to us. If Niburu is in direct orbit of earth I can guarantee you all you will be able to see it.

However. We don't know whether this is just stories, or true. We don't even know where it all originally came from.

Maybe all the Niburu stories started as soon as 15 years ago.

Who knows.

All I know is there are people out there that just quickly jump to conclusions and assume things, and assume the facts that are presented to them are really facts.

We still don't know the whole story.

according to the tablets,it takes nibiru 3600 years to circle our sun.

Are you sure about that? 3600 years? Civilisation is dated back way longer than that.

it's came by thousands of times.sometimes with minimal or no effects,sometimes apocalyptic results.
for what it's worth,sitchin says the it came by around 500 a.d..
if you look at the numbers it's pretty close

you may be thinking of the procession of the eqiunox,which is around 26,000 years :flop:

....So let me see if I have this right..Scientists theorize that there might be a planet at the far edges of our solar system,right?...Then they go on to describe its composition and orbit?..This is not science.It is "what if".....They think it is possible.They haven't discovered a damn thing.But that's okay..put a misleading title on the thread and watch the hits pour in.I am beginning to think that the OP doesn't give a cold damn about the accuracy of their statements.
Sav.....wtf?
"Scientists" don't believe anything until it is proven by scientific method.They never even mention the mythical "Nibiru" and have not named the planet "Tyche" because they don't even know if it exists.

Sav you post a helluva lot of things,and I still visit your threads,but lately I am wondering if you give a weak fuck whether or not they contain any truth.
You certainly don't mind misleading folks to get views for your thread,huh?
Ya know this thread woulda still been interesting if you had been truthful in the title.You are losing cred in my book.
Keep posting but please try to be honest. :flop:

Thanx

the most special thing about our moon is that ancient civilisation wrote down there was no moon at their time, as much as i can remember..
