Discovery of the Twelfth Planet a Reality
by Ray Shortell |
SEDNA
In 2003 the Caltech Mt. Palomar observatory discovered what some
are calling the tenth planet. (Is this Zacharia Sitchen’s
Twelfth Planet?) This planet is named Sedna after the Aortic
Inuit goddess of the sea.
Pluto has an orbit of two hundred thirty eight years, but Sedna
which is currently three times further from the Sun than Pluto
has a large elliptical orbit of 10,000 years. According to Zechariah
Sitchin, two ancient civilizations noted a twelve planet solar
system including one planet with a 3600 year orbit: In the area
of Iraq the planet was called Nibiru by the Sumerian civilization
around 5000 BC and Marduk by the Babylonians around 700 BC. Two
civilizations in South America also tell of a tenth planet matching
a theory of planetary placement putting each planet’s orbit
at roughly double the diameter of the previous planet.
The Mayans and Incas of South America:
The Mayan calendar is based upon a ten planet solar system. The
tenth was said to have existed between Mars and Jupiter where our
current asteroid belt exists and where some say the ancient planet
Maldek was destroyed by a nuclear war between its people. The Mayans
primarily lived in Central America.
In the Andes mountains of Peru the Inca city of Pisac is said to
have a piece of Maldek.
In our western culture, two additions to our nine planet solar
system are also predicted as noted by Linda Goodman: Vulcan which
was predicted as existing closest to the sun based upon perturbations
in the orbit of Mercury which were later found to be due to the
bending of light around the gravity of the sun, and Pan-Horus or
as it is known by astronomers, Planet X, existing beyond the orbit
of Pluto and causing perturbations in the orbits of Uranus and
Pluto.
Sedna was discovered by Caltech astronomers who continue to search
the sky expecting further discoveries like the other two recently
discovered planetoids. (The other recently discovered planetoid
is 2003UB313, larger than Pluto and with a 560 year orbit being
outside the orbit of Sedna.) |
