Do you belive in PLANET X?

Planet X is the new kid on the solar system block. The “X” can either refer to the fact it would be the tenth planet of our solar system, or an unknown planet. In many respects, it is probably the former, in that there appears to be a great deal of information on this deep denizen -- at least from the runaway nature of the Internet and e-mail circuits. For example, one circulating e-mail provides an executive summary to wit: “Two things are certain: 1) Planet X exists, and 2) it is coming between May 15 and May 30 of 2003. The rest is speculation.” The emphasis is on speculation -- i.e. the good news is that this latest theory can likely be put to bed within the year -- or else it really won’t make any difference, in that:

“According to NASA scientists, the earth will stand still for about three days and then, in one hour, rotate a full 90 degrees (the geographical pole shift) during which time winds will be an average of 200 miles per hour. Every volcano on earth will erupt and of course there will be many earthquakes, so two thirds of earth's population will die in that one hour surprise. Then another 20% will starve to death during the next six months because the volcanic ash will cover the earth and keep out sunlight for six months. About 10% of the [world’s] population (about 600 million) will survive.



“NASA's top scientists wanted to go to Mars and survive but that didn't work out. So they are making a space station which will be able to maneuver itself on the other side of earth, using earth as a shield between the space station and Planet X. This way the top scientists will live. He said it is already affecting Neptune's gravitational pole and once it gets close to Pluto, it will take only three months to get here. Once near Pluto it will be a "red dot in the sky" which will gradually get bigger during several months, and can be seen with the naked eye six weeks before the pole shift. The northern inland part of the States is good; it is where the scientists are going. This will be near the equator after the shift.”
