Nibiru is just one of many names for this planet from the Sumerian writings...it means “ferry” or “The planet of the crossing” or something like that. There may be multiple planets- multiple names. The concept of this explaining a connection to another solar system and another race... I find is fascinating.
art work from “Dark Star” aside, it’s an interesting subject to read about. The recent observatories established in Antarctica and now in Hawaii, plus other programs, may provide more hard data.
There certainly is a lot of commonality in the lore of the cultures of early earth, and in prophecy, and it does provide a fantastic wway to interpret some puzzling geological and other evidence. Has there been a polar reversal in the past- why? Will it happen again and why and when? Why are the bodies in the outer solar system warming -are they getting more geologically active? Are we?
Were we visited? Were we colonized? Were we “bred”?
This is one of those times when, if these is any credence to the descriptions of all of this as a cyclical event which will affects us again in our time, we will know one way or another soon enough. Meanwhile it’s interesting to BS about.
People are sure going to be speculating and reading more after the movie “2012” comes out this summer. Will this planet “X” become more visible by the same time this summer, as was written here? Maybe we’ll know this summer!
Meanwhile scientists are stockpiling those Noah’s arks with seeds- and maybe other stuff, too.

These theories are awesome for finding flaws in science while partaking in the beverage of the evening. But as for verifiable science...well, I guess that’s TBD.
Zecharia Sitchin's Errors: An OverviewThe study shows - from the texts themselves, not my opinion - that "Nibiru" is not a planet beyond Pluto and that the Anunnaki gods are never associated with it. These ideas are fabrications... This study details the impossibility of Sitchin's translations of "nephilim" as "those who came down" or "people of the fiery rockets" in light of Hebrew vocabulary and grammar. I know it sounds mind- numbing, but again I have tried to illustrate the concepts and problems. It also contains a scan of a page from one of Sitchin's books where he could not tell the difference between Aramaic and Hebrew - an amazing mistake if he's an expert... Mr. Sitchin contends that the word "Nephilim" means "those who came down from above" or "those who descended to earth" or "people of the fiery rockets" (see The Twelfth Planet, pp. vii, 128ff.). These translations, of course, serve his purpose - to see the Nephilim as ancient astronauts. As such it is hard to over-estimate the importance of Sitchin's work here - if he's wrong about the meaning of "nephilim," much of his overall thesis falls... Sitchin assumes "Nephilim" comes from the Hebrew word "naphal" (as opposed to ARAMAIC - see below) which usually means "to fall." He then forces the meaning "to come down" onto the word, creating his "to come down from above" translation. "Nephilim" - in the form we find it in the Hebrew Bible - COULD come from Hebrew "naphal," but it could ONLY mean be translated one way in light of the spelling - "those who are fallen" (i.e., either "fallen in battle" - which is out of the question given the context of Genesis 6 - or "spiritually fallen" / evil - which fits the context IF the sons of God are evil)... In short, if you care about the grammar of Hebrew, Sitchin's word meanings CAN'T be correct. The above file also discusses Sitchin's confusion of the sons of God and the nephilim - and evidence from his own book, Stairway to Heaven, that he cannot distinguish between Hebrew and Aramaic! My suspicion behind this apparent blunder is that Sitchin wants to distance the Annunaki from the evil Watchers of ancient Jewish literature (Hebrew Bible, Enoch, and some Dead Sea Scrolls).
