jr231 Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 So what's the scoop. On "nibiru" . Does anyone know what I'm talking about. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted January 17, 2017 Super User Posted January 17, 2017 Do you mean the cataclysmic event supposedly coming this century? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nibiru_cataclysm I chalk it up with all the other far out theories: Jesus' return in 1988, BigFoot, Ogopogo, etc. Put Josh Gates on the case! 2 Quote
jr231 Posted January 17, 2017 Author Posted January 17, 2017 @Darren. yes. Lol. What brought this to my attention is my girlfriend (whom might as well be my wife) came home all shook up last night. When we were laying in bed she started crying babbling about how she heard someone at her work talking about something on a collision path with earth. She was saying "I just want our daughter to live a full life.. (whom is only 15 months)" Now she is a customer service manager for a retail store.. she's pretty smart . Just more than a little naive. After some research of my own ... A name came up that was "Ron L. Hubbard" and anything that has to do with this man I automatically disregard. I knew right there and then it was non sense. On the flip side... The idea of something colliding with earth isn't all that far fetched.. we did have an asteroid pass by not all that long ago.. and wernt notified it was going to happen until we knew it wasn't going to hit... Space is so vast and interesting (to me) and it's hard telling what's out there or even how big it is.. I was just wondering if anybody had heard about this because this is the first time I heard of it.. I'm sure whoever was talking about it probably hates their life enough to pray for something like that to happen. It all just had my gears turning. I've always been fascinated with aliens and other mysteries. 2 Quote

I have heard of Planet X at first I thought it was something from an old Godzilla movie I saw as a kid. The truth is it's not a matter of if something collides with Earth it's a matter of when. Hopefully it will be after we have developed the means to travel to other worlds and colonize them so all of the human race is not on one planet. This is the reason it is so important to continue research into space travel. Getting to Mars and making it habitable should be one of our top priorities. 1 Quote

What I mean is if we have colonized Mars and an asteroid is on a collision course with Earth we can evacuate to Mars. It works in reverse as well (We can escape from Mars to Earth). The idea is to spread out so we are not trapped on Earth if it is doomed. Quote
jr231 Posted January 18, 2017 Author Posted January 18, 2017 I think the odds of it happening in our lifetime (compared to the earths lifetime) is slim to none..Pretty crazy to think about though.. even crazier to think about going to Mars lol 1 Quote

I have read that there are more planets in the milky way than there are grains of sand on the earth...and we think were the only one of those with life on it? As spock would say, not logical. I also believe that our govt has knowledge of life, and most likely of visits to earth from that life. So, thinking this thru, if life from out of our galaxy visited us here, it would stand to reason that they have achieved time travel, or some form of it..now if the govt admits this, and the population then begins pushing to be able to time travel...then everything is haywire and the govt loses control of the citizens. If we as a population are able to go back and forward in time, how can we be controlled? 46 minutes ago, Yeajray231 said: I think the odds of it happening in our lifetime (compared to the earths lifetime) is slim to none..Pretty crazy to think about though.. even crazier to think about going to Mars lol and fyi, matt damon has been to mars. 2 Quote
riverbasser Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 I don't believe there are more planets in OUR galaxy than sand on the earth. But there are other galaxies so that would be possible, especially since we have no way of knowing how many other galaxies there are. It is a true statement that we have more cells in our body than all the stars/planets of our galaxy(or at least which s been observed). Think about that for a minute Quote

jr231 Posted January 18, 2017 Author Posted January 18, 2017 @deaknh03.. yes.. aliens.. sea monsters.. ghosts... women without mood swings.. all these phenomena interest me very much.. I don't doubt alien life one single bit... I know someone who would swear their life in all seriousness that they've encountered an alien.. and he would tell a story of being hit with a red beam through his upstairs bedroom as a child. I've personally never seen one but some of the stuff on tv about aliens being responsible for some religions is also interesting to me.. Lol @J Francho you think aliens are impossible ? Quote

Think about that for a minute It was Carl Sagan who said that, and it has been hypothesized endlessly, but many scientists believe it to be entirely possible. https://www.outerplaces.com/science/item/2631-are-there-more-stars-in-the-universe-than-grains-of-sand-on-earth 1 minute ago, J Francho said: Pretty sure @.ghoti. is an alien.

Super User deaknh03 Posted January 18, 2017 Super User Posted January 18, 2017 many reputable astronomers and scientists have said there are more stars than grains of sand...think of that, each star has the possibility of who knows how many planets around it. Quote

Super User MassYak85 Posted January 18, 2017 Super User Posted January 18, 2017 From Wikipedia: "not supported by any scientific evidence and has been rejected by astronomers and planetary scientists as pseudoscience and an Internet hoax" I'd be more worried about a rock in the kuiper or Asteroid belt getting knocked out of it's orbit and NASA not finding out about it until it's too late. Even still, the odds of impact with even the most probable known candidates are in the one-in-a-millions. 1 Quote
