Planet X Nibiru Secrets Found In Sumerian Mythology

(ALTHeadlines) Planet X Nibiru, the mysterious large planetary object that some people believe will either collide or have a near miss with Earth when it returns on an orbit that takes it thousands of years to complete. The name "Nibiru" was brought to world's attention from the writings of ancient astronaut theorist Zecharia Sitchin and his famous interpretations of Babylonian and Sumerian mythology and symbology. Based on Sitchin's interpretations of Sumerian mythology, Sitchin wrote that Nibiru was the home of a technologically advanced human-like extraterrestrial race called the Anunnaki. He also believed that these same beings were called The Nephilim (race of giants) in the Book of Genesis, which evolved after the Anunnaki first arrived on Earth after Nibiru passed near by our solar system on one of the many 3,600 orbital cycles.

The Elephant’s Trunk Nebula (IC 1396A) is an elongated dark globule of more than 20 light-years long within the much larger (over 100 light-years across) emission nebula IC 1396 which is located about 2,400 light-years away in the northern constellation of Cepheus (named after the King of Aethiopia in Greek mythology). It was given this name as it resembles the head and trunk of an elephant.
The globule is a condensation of dense gas and dust that is being compressed by the intense radiation and stellar winds from the very bright, massive star HD 206267. The compression of the gas in the globule is triggering the formation of stars within it.
The stellar winds from the massive star are also responsible for sculpting and eroding the filaments of the globule. These winds produce a dense circular rim making up the “head” of the globule and a swept-back tail of gas.

What is Nibiru? Quick Look At This Mysterious Planet

(ALTHeadlines) Nibiru is the name given to a mysterious distant planet in our solar system, that has a 3,600 year orbit around our sun. Author Zecheria Sitchin hypothesized the existence of Nibiru after studying translations of ancient Sumerian writings from 6,000 years ago. Sitchin’s theory is that Nibiru once collided with a planet that had previously been on an orbital path between Mars and Jupiter, and that this collision created Earth, the Moon, and the asteroid belt. Also called planet x, this planet could also cause massive issues just from proximity by creating a magnetic polar shift.

Voyager Will Leave Solar System Any Day Now

"It could be any day, but it could also be several more years." Ed Stone cannot say when the Voyager-1 spacecraft will leave the Solar System, but he believes the moment is close. The latest data from this extraordinary probe, reported in this week's Science journal, suggests it is surfing right on the very edge of our Sun's domain. The particles streaming away from our star have reduced to a trickle at its present location, 18.5 billion km from Earth. Particles flying towards it from interstellar space, by contrast, have jumped markedly in the past year.

Alien Planet Hunt To Get Help From Proxima Centauri Star Alignment

The stars will align for planet hunters twice in the next three years, allowing them to probe the nearest star to our own solar system for Earth-size alien worlds. Proxima Centauri, which lies just 4.24 light-years from Earth, will pass in front of background stars in both October 2014 and February 2016. Astronomers should scrutinize Proxima during these two periods, looking for subtle light shifts that could reveal the presence of close-orbiting planets, a new study reports. This wide-field view of the sky around the bright star Alpha Centauri was created from photographic images forming part of the Digitized Sky Survey 2 "This is an opportunity to determine the mass of Proxima, and also detect planets up to 4 AU [astronomical units] around Proxima Centauri," Kailash Sahu, an astronomer with the Space Science Telescope Institute in Baltimore, Md., told reporters today (June 3) at the 222nd meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Indianapolis.

Voyager 1 Explores Final Frontier of Our 'Solar Bubble'

Data from Voyager 1, now more than 11 billion miles from the sun, suggest the spacecraft is closer to becoming the first human-made object to reach interstellar space. This artist's concept shows NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft exploring a region called the "depletion region" or "magnetic highway" at the outer limits of our heliosphere, the bubble the sun blows around itself. In this region, the magnetic field lines generated by our sun (yellow arcs) are piling up and intensifying and low-energy charged particles that are accelerated in the heliosphere's turbulent outer later (green dots) have disappeared. Scientists think the depletion region is the last region Voyager 1 has to cross before reaching interstellar space, which is the space between stars, Voyager 1 passed a shockwave known as the termination shock in 2004, where solar wind suddenly slowed down and became turbulent.

Sun Produced Earth-Directed Coronal Mass Ejection On 20 June

Lawrence LeBlond for redOrbit.com - Your Universe Online As the world embraces for an upcoming supermoon, the sun is proving it will not be outdone as it produced another coronal mass ejection (CME) this week on June 20, 2013 at 11:24 p.m. Thursday’s CME was Earth-directed, potentially sending billions of tons of particles into space that may reach our neck of the woods as early as today. While these particles can cause disturbances in electrical components both in space around Earth and on the ground, they cannot pass through the atmosphere and harm humans. Typically, CMEs leave the sun at speeds between 500 and 750 miles per second.

On June 20, 2013, at 11:24 p.m., the sun erupted with an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection or CME, a solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of particles into space that can reach Earth one to three days later. These particles cannot travel through the atmosphere to harm humans on Earth, but they can affect electronic systems in satellites and on the ground. Experimental NASA research models, based on observations from NASA's Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory and ESA/NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory show that the CME left the sun at speeds of around 1350 miles per second, which is a fast speed for CMEs.

Jupiter Sized Object Discovered Next to the Sun

A Spherical Object the Size of Jupiter Discovered Next to the Sun and imaged by Helioviewer June 17–18 COR1-B (2013-06-17 00:05:18 – 2013-06-17 23:45:18 UTC)This movie was produced by Helioviewer.org by Avalon Intellihub.com June 21, 2013
A spherical object the size of Jupiter was detected and imaged by the Helioviewer.org viewer on June 17 through 18. The image comes into view and is clearly spherical and looks the size of Jupiter which is approximately 86,881 miles in diameter.
For many years there’s been speculation about the existence of a dark star that is the sister sun to our own sun – making our solar system a binary–star system. According to Wikipedia; It is estimated that approximately 1/3 of the star systems in the Milky Way are binary or multiple, with the remaining 2/3 consisting of single stars.[61]
Helioviewer.org has an online viewer that can be programmed to view virtually any time you select. Images and movies can be created via the online interface.

Breaking News: Michael Hastings was murdered to cover up Nibiru!

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/hastings-crash-witness-113514329.html ZetaTalk has revealed what happened to Hastings. Not an accident: It was murder, including a bomb. The Zetas of ZetaTalk.com are the first (again!) to share the truth about yet another person killed due to the cover up of Planet X/Nibiru. Hastings was unlikely to give up researching the reality of Nibiru, and the incredibly selfish people who still do not want you to know Planet X is real had him killed.

Where Are All the Aliens?

Consider this. The Universe is enormous. There are as many as four-hundred billion stars in our galaxy: the Milky Way. And there are more than one-hundred-and-seventy billion galaxies in the observable Universe.

How Did A Third Radiation Belt Appear In The Earth's Upper Atmosphere?

Since the discovery of the Van Allen radiation belts in in the Earth's upper atmosphere in 1958, space scientists have believed that these belts consisted of two doughnut-shaped rings of highly charged particles — an inner ring of high-energy electrons and energetic positive ions, and an outer ring of high-energy electrons. Credit: NASA However, in February of this year, a team of scientists reported in the journal Science the surprising discovery of a previously unknown third radiation ring. This narrow ring had briefly circled the Earth between the inner and outer rings in September 2012 and then almost completely disappeared. How did this temporary radiation belt appear and dissipate?
