Is it because of Nemesis that many animals walked in circles? What other things does it do to the planet and people?View attachment 73510
It is certainly interesting. Could it be a breach in the Realm veil and therefore does not exert gravitational effects on the planet?
Is it because of Nemesis that many animals walked in circles? What other things does it do to the planet and people?
(irjO) Lately, a lot of videos of different type of animals around the world walking in circles are appearing online. Why is that happening?
A: Same types of wave manipulation that is affecting humans. When such things happen, pay attention.
To me it looks like the solar disc. Perhaps at that moment the clouds were thicker just over the sun, but not so much around it, creating the illusion that the light came from elsewhere behind it.Could you help me with this doubt? I thought it was strange so I took the picture, the circle you see is not the sun, it is not visible in the photo but it was illuminating from further back, and the moon is in waning phase."
There's a broad similarity to the 'Nemesis' hypothesis and some interesting ideas discussed, but there's no data supplied and very little in the way of specifics, plus a colossal amount of trying to make the scenario fit Biblical prophecy. No mention of comets, and the mass and orbital parameters he discusses bear no resemblance to the hypothesized brown dwarf trajectory at all.This is an interview conducted by Greg Hunter of USAWatchdog and the speaker, Weston Warren, is essentially talking about Nemesis inbound!
Session 4th July 1998 said:Q: (A) I am trying to write down some things about a cosmology, and I have some questions mainly about the coming events. First there was the story of the sun's companion brown star which is apparently approaching the solar system, and I would like to know, if possible, details of its orbit; that is, how far it is, what is its speed, and when it will be first seen. Can we know it? Orbit: how close will it come?
A: Flat elliptical.
Q: (A) But how close will it come?
A: Distance depends upon other factors, such as intersecting orbit of locator of witness.
Q: (L) What is the closest it could come to earth... (A) Solar system... (L) Yes, but which part of the solar system? We have nine planets... which one? (A) I understand that this brown star will enter the Oort cloud... (L) I think they said it just brushes against it and the gravity disturbs it...
A: Passes through Oort cloud on orbital journey. Already has done this on its way "in."
Q: (A) You mean it has already entered the Oort cloud?
A: Has passed through.
Q: (A) So, it will not approach...
A: Oort cloud is located on outer perimeter orbital plane at distance of approximately averaged distance of 510,000,000,000 miles.
Q: (L) Well, 510 billion miles gives us some time! (A) Yes, but what I want to know... this Oort cloud is around the solar system, so this brown star, once it has passed through... (L) It must already be in the solar system? (A) No, it could have passed through and may not come closer. Is it coming closer or not? Is it coming closer all the time?
A: Solar system, in concert with "mother star," is revolving around companion star, a "brown" star.
Q: (A) So, that means that the mass of the companion star is much...
A: Less.
Q: (A) Less?
A: They are moving in tandem with one another along a flat, elliptical orbital plane. Outer reaches of solar system are breached by passage of brown companion, thus explaining anomalies recently discovered regarding outer planets and their moons.
Q: (A) But I understand that the distance that the distance between the sun and this brown star is changing with time. Elliptical orbit means there is perihelion and aphelion. I want to know what will be, or what was, or what is the closest distance between this brown star and the sun? What is perihelion? Can we know this, even approximately. Is it about one light year, or less or more?
A: Less, much less. Distance of closest passage roughly corresponds to the distance of the orbit of Pluto from Sun.
Q: (A) Okay. Now, this closest pass, is this something that is going to happen?
A: Yes.
Q: (A) And it is going to happen within the next 6 to 18 years?
A: 0 to 14.
Session 11th July 1998 said:Q: (A) Okay, I would like to ask what kind of effects other than just gravity we should expect from the close passage of this star? Any particular electro-magnetic, gamma radiation, or what to look for? In which part of the spectrum?
A: Radiation emits from those cosmic bodies which radiate.
Q: (L) Are you saying that the brown star does not radiate?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) If it doesn't radiate, what does it do?
A: Its radioactive field is severely limited as the "fire" went out long ago. It does not give off light.
Q: (J) It's a brown star. (T) One or two steps away from being a collapsing black hole. (L) Well, that's friendly, especially after watching "Event Horizon" last night!
A: No. Black holes only form from 1st magnitude stars.
Q: (A) We have been told that there is going to be a change of the magnetic field of the earth. Does this mean that the magnetic pole will shift?
A: Yes.
Q: (A) About this shift of the poles, is it going to be a complete pole reversal?
A: Yes.
Q: (A) What is going to happen inside Earth that could cause this magnetic pole reversal?
A: Is caused by disturbances in the mineral content of the substrata rock, brought on by the interaction of Earth with outside forces.
Q: (L) What specific outside forces?
A: Those already discussed.
Q: (L) What is going to be the specific mechanism of this disturbance? Can you describe for us the steps by which this pole reversal will take place?
A: Pole reversal is cyclical anyway, these events merely serve as trigger mechanism.
Session 30th January 2010 said:(Ark) Oh, it's predictable on a more or less... I mean, they are small anomalies, not big anomalies. I want to ask about my numbers. So, I put numbers. We were asking for these numbers years ago, you were evasive, and you even admitted that you are evasive for a good reason. Nevertheless, I did calculations with what I could - of course garbage in/garbage out as everyone knows. So, I put for the period 26 million years. Is it approximately true?
A: Very close 28.2 million years.
Q: (Ark) Then I had to put another number which was not told to us. I was asking about the mass of this companion star, and I was told that it was "much less than the sun". So, in my calculations, I put half a percent of the mass of the sun. Is it approximately true?
A: 3.4, closer
Q: (Ark) 3 percent?! And not half a percent?? That would mean that when it approaches, it will induce perturbation of the solar system.
A: Indeed!
Q: (Ark) Hmm.
A: It already has done so in the past. Just check the record.
Q: (Joe) It's already perturbed in the past?
(L) So in other words, you can examine the record and find out what kind of perturbations it does. Like the geological record, historical record, archaeology, etc.
(Ark) I will do this. Now, just one other question to check. I calculated from these data - the difference in the mass between what I thought. And what we just learned will not influence these calculations - it has to do with perturbations - so, I calculated what we call a semi-major axis. So there is the binary system, there is the sun and there is this companion. And they circulate around each other. But the sun moves only a little bit because it's heavy. So I calculated the semi-major axis. It's a flat elliptical orbit. So we know the semi-minor axis because we were told it's around Pluto distance. So I calculated the semi-major axis and I got the answer like 87,000 astronomical units, which is about 1.3 light years, a the semi-major axis of this elongated ellipse. Is this 1.3 light years more or less the right answer?
A: 1.7
Session 21st December 2012 said:(Belibaste) In a previous session, it was said that the companion star coming closer induced a grounding of the sun. I simply wanted to know more precisely how this grounding occurs. For example, is there some kind of electric connection between the sun and the companion star, and if so, which kind of current transits between those two celestial bodies?
A: Indeed, but that occurs "outside" the system.
Q: (Belibaste) That's what you said, Ark. That it's a kind of wormhole...
A: Wormhole is good!
Q: (Belibaste) At the level of the sun, can we say that the reason for this grounding is the reduced positive overall charge?
A: Yes.
Q: (Belibaste) Okay, this reduced positive charge induces a reduced field that increases gravity?
A: Yes.
Session 6th July 2010 said:Q: (L) Is oil leaking out of the ocean bed floor in the Gulf of Mexico in any other places besides through the well?
A: Yes but that is happening elsewhere as well. All part of the "opening up" phenomenon.
Q: (L) So, you mean that what we've speculated about sinkholes and cracks in the earth... What is causing this opening up?
A: Misalignment, or rather sliding of layers of crust of earth due to slowing of rotation.
Q: (L) Okay, what is causing this slowing of rotation?
A: We have mentioned the approach of companion star and its tendency to "ground" the system.
Session 17th July 2022 said:Q: (whitecoast) Was the observed cooling on Pluto and Neptune this year caused by passing through a galactic current sheet (as Suspicious Observers claims), the approach of Sol's companion star, or another material cause?
A: Grounding the current.
Q: (L) So that would be related to the sun's twin, is that it?
A: Yes
Session 10th December 2022 said:(Joe) Oh yeah... Just this past September, there was a very prestigious and well-thought-of English astronomer from Oxford. He was a quiet guy who was at the observatory in Chile. He'd gone there many times. This September he went there and they were gonna do their usual tour or whatever. After the first night I think, basically one or two nights after he was there, he went missing. He was missing for 50 days. He was only found in November a few kilometers away. It's like a desert in Chile. That's why they have these telescopes there. But according to the PhD student that was with him, he reportedly said to the police that the professor guy said something very bizarre to him. Then he criticized him for not being as dedicated to the cause as he should be. That was the day before he went missing. So, he just disappeared. And he was found 50 days later partly clothed and dead in the desert. It was talked about by David Paulides as a Missing 411 case. I was wondering if that's what it was, or...?
A: Yes
Q: (Joe) Was it just random?
A: No
Q: (Joe) It had something to do with the research he was involved in?
A: Yes
Q: (Joe) He focused specifically on binary star systems.
A: Yes
Q: (Joe) I was wondering if he maybe had come up with some theory about a twin sun being...?
A: Yes
Q: (Niall) Did he observe something?
A: Yes!!
Q: (Joe) And that was the "bizarre" thing that the student said to him?
A: Yes
Q: (Joe) So he was basically silenced by...
A: Yes
Q: (Joe) Does that mean we're gonna see some stuff soon?
A: Yes. Oh yes! [..]
(Joe) If our twin sun is relatively soon to be visible, what's it gonna... be called? [laughter]
(L) You're worried about what it's going to be CALLED?! [laughter]
(Joe) No, I mean what are they gonna say about it? What would be the explanation for it? Are they gonna say it's a twin sun, or a comet, or... Maybe that's asking too much.
A: Probably will call it a giant comet or the flaring of same.
Q: (Andromeda) So what's it gonna look like?
A: Won't look like much to anyone but astronomers.
Q: (Pierre) I thought Nemesis was a brown dwarf? If it's a brown dwarf, it's unlike a giant comet... It's way dimmer.
A: Can ignite when connected to the circuit.
Q: (Niall) So there could be flaring. They won't be lying about that part.
(Pierre) And it'll look like a comet. A biggy.
As a thought experiment, I asked Grok:Session 23rd September 2023 said:Q: (L) All right, next LQB's asking this one:
(LQB) Are Earth’s magnetic field excursions/reversals roughly associated with cometary/asteroid impacts to Earth's atmosphere or surface?
A: Not directly related, but often interactive.
Q: (L) So why are they not directly related?
A: Reversals are related to companion star loosely, but other cosmic conditions also interact here.
Q: (L) Does it have anything to do with the way our part of the galaxy bobs up and down above the plane of the ecliptic of the galaxy? Is that more related?
A: Yes
Q: (L) But companion star interactions are related to cometary activity, right?
A: Yes but often long delays.
The answer (excluding a lot of math) was approximately 89 years. I then asked it to repeat the exercise using the perihelion of Pluto as the dwarf star's perihelion (~30 AU) and interestingly the answer was the same, only the companion star's velocity was calculated at 7.7 km/s instead of 6 km/s.Ryan said:Given a brown dwarf star with 3% mass of the sun on a 28 million year orbit in the plane of the ecliptic, a semi-major axis of 1.7 light years and currently at a perihelion of 49.3 AU [the distance of Pluto's aphelion], please calculate how long it would take for the star to pass beyond Sol's heliopause.
The C's did say that the radiance of the companion star was very low, so this might explain why it has only been seen with large scientific telescopes and not by thousands of backyard astronomers. However, if the "grounding" affects continue to increase for years yet, there could potentially be significant "flaring" that would make it much more visible.
The work is methodical and demanding, and involves interconnected systems that require a comprehensive understanding of the entire camera. Experts in vacuum systems, cooling, and electronics play a critical role in the process. It is not enough to be an expert in one specific area—one must have a deep, holistic knowledge of the camera. Every system, every component, every adjustment must be carefully anticipated to ensure perfect operation.

Preparing for the greatest cosmic movie ever made
High up on the top of Cerro Pachón in northern Chile, NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is nearing completion. At the heart of the facility, a pivotal moment in the project's scientific adventure is unfolding. After more than 20 years of meticulous research and development, and weeks of testing...phys.org
If Planet Nine is out there, this telescope might actually find it
Mike Brown is convinced that beyond Neptune, at the far reaches of our solar system, there's an unseen giant planet.
"This is the 5th largest planet in our solar system, lurking out there, waiting to be found," the Caltech astronomer says.
For about a decade, he and other researchers have been trying to prove that the so-called "Planet 9" exists.
So far, the only evidence has come from some oddities in the orbits of small Pluto-like bodies. The cosmic weirdness could be explained by the gravitational effects of a large planet.
But no one has actually spotted Planet 9. It's so far away, it would be a faint object, and the swath of sky that researchers have to search is huge.
Now, though, researchers are close to finally starting up a powerful astronomical facility that's on a mountaintop in Chile. The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, a joint project of the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy, has been under construction for years — and later this month workers are expected to finally start the commissioning and fine-tuning of its instruments.
Brown says he couldn't have asked for a better telescope to hunt his celestial quarry.
"If you were to hand me a big wad of cash and say, 'Go build a telescope to go either find this Planet 9 or find the best evidence possible for Planet 9,' I would probably go and build the Vera Rubin Observatory," says Brown. "It really is a telescope that is perfectly suited for making the next step."
The best bet
Bob Blum, Rubin's director of operations, says the observatory will survey almost the entire southern sky every night, taking pictures as it goes with the biggest digital camera in the world.
"The telescope itself is a big telescope, so it can see really faint objects," says Blum.
What's more, the observatory's images will feed into computer systems that will constantly be comparing the new images to previous ones. That will allow the observatory to detect anything that changes — like, say, Planet Nine moving across the sky.
"If it's there, we should be able to find it, pretty easily," says Blum.
The observatory will be a game-changer in the hunt for Planet 9, agrees Scott Sheppard of Carnegie Science, one of the researchers who first suggested that a big planet could be the culprit that was messing with the orbits of some small solar system bodies.
"Vera Rubin is our best bet to find it in the next few years, probably," says Sheppard. "It's going to turn over more rocks than anyone has turned over before."
If Planet 9 is real, this observatory has around a 70 to 80 percent chance of finding it, he estimates, adding that it's not a sure thing because there are so many uncertainties.
"We don't know the size of the planet. We don't know the reflectivity of the planet. We don't know the distance of the planet," says Sheppard. "Those three things will determine how bright this planet actually is."
If Planet 9 is on the smaller side, dark, and really far away, he explains, "it's going to be on the edge of Vera Rubin detection, and Vera Rubin may not find it."
But even if it doesn't spot Planet 9 directly, the Rubin Observatory might find some more minor planets, ones whose orbits might be affected by Planet 9. And that could provide additional evidence that such a giant planet really exists.
Up until now, says Sheppard, astronomers haven't found enough small, far-off minor planets with orbits that can be analyzed for evidence of Planet 9's gravitational influence, so he thinks the existence of this planet is an open question.
"The statistics just aren't there to definitively say yes or no," he says.
Getting serious
Brown, meanwhile, says he is "extraordinarily confident" that Planet 9 is out there.
Over the years he's tried to remain skeptical, he says, but was finally convinced by an obscure gravitational effect that he and some colleagues noticed and reported on about a year ago.
"If you talk to 20 different astronomers, you'll get 20 different takes on how confident they are," says Brown. "But I just don't see a way that the solar system can exist the way it does without there being a Planet 9."
As this year progresses, he says, the Rubin observatory will start building up a baseline picture of the sky, and by the end of the year it should have started detecting changes and making that data available to the astronomy community.
At that point, says Brown, "we can get serious about trying to find Planet 9."
Even if they aren't able to actually see a new planet, he adds, the Rubin observatory should provide enough new data that it should become clear whether the tell-tale orbital patterns they've been seeing really hold up to scrutiny.
"I think that what Vera Rubin will definitively do," says Brown, "is tell us whether we're crazy or not."
When a Telescope Is a National-Security Risk
How do you know what you’re not allowed to see?
In the early months of 2023, the astronomer Željko Ivezić found himself taking part in a highly unusual negotiation. Ivezić is the 59-year-old director of the Vera Rubin Observatory, a $1 billion telescope that the United States has been developing in the Chilean high desert for more than 20 years. He was trying to reach an agreement that would keep his telescope from compromising America’s national security when it starts stargazing next year.
This task was odd enough for any scientist, and it was made more so by the fact that Ivezić had no idea with whom he was negotiating. “I didn’t even know which agency I was talking to,” he told me on a recent video call from his field office in Chile. Whoever it was would communicate with him only through intermediaries at the National Science Foundation. Ivezić didn’t even know whether one person or several people were on the other side of the exchange. All he knew was that they were very security-minded. Also, they seemed to know a great deal about astronomy.
The Vera Rubin is housed in a sleek building on a mountaintop in the Atacama Desert. The chamber that holds its primary mirror juts up from the end of the elongated structure like the head of a sphinx. The observatory represents a freakish augmentation of human vision. Like the James Webb Space Telescope that NASA launched a few years ago, it will be able to see to the far edge of the universe. But the Webb can observe only a tiny region of sky. The Vera Rubin will be able to lock onto a tile of sky that is much larger and, after 30 seconds, return an image of that tile that extends 13 billion light-years into space. Then it will pan over and lock onto an adjacent tile of sky and do the same thing. After just three nights of going tile-by-tile like a handyman redoing a bathroom wall, it will have captured a deep image of the entire sky.
National-security types worry about what the Vera Rubin will be able to see. Ivezić told me that each of its full-sky images will contain more than 40 billion objects. That’s several times more than all previous surveys of this sort combined. When the Vera Rubin sees an object that it hasn’t seen before, it will alert astronomers. If a star explodes billions of light-years away, an algorithm will spot it, and the community will be notified. If a near-Earth asteroid comes hurtling right toward us, scientists will know to zoom into it, immediately, with other observatories. The problem is, if a spy satellite, or some other secret spacecraft, moves into view, that too could get flagged and have its location distributed, in real time, to people all across the world.
The Pentagon doesn’t like much of anything to be known about its satellites. During the Cold War, the United States was more secretive about what it did in space than what it did in the nuclear realm, says Aaron Bateman, a historian at George Washington University and the author of Weapons in Space. The U.S. acknowledges the general contours of its nuclear arsenal—how many weapons and delivery vehicles it has—but tends to be far more circumspect about its military space capabilities. Bateman told me that the very existence of the National Reconnaissance Office, the agency responsible for developing U.S. spy satellites, was classified until 1992. The NRO still operates a fleet of these satellites, but exact details about how many, and what kind, remain secret.
The Vera Rubin Observatory will likely make awkward eye contact with some of them. Many of them are telescopes in their own right, but instead of tilting up toward the sky, they point down at Earth. This dual nature of the telescope dates back to its inception; after inventing his, Galileo wrote to the ruler of Venice about its ability to spy enemy ships. He also vowed to keep the device a secret. During the early Cold War, the British government monitored Soviet satellites and missile tests with the Jodrell Bank Observatory, in Manchester.
Assistance of this kind has also flowed in the opposite direction, from the spies to the civilians. During the Apollo missions, NRO spy satellites captured images of potential landing sites on the moon. They also inspected damaged panels on SkyLab, NASA’s first space station. In 1981, during the space shuttle’s maiden flight, a NASA astronaut flipped the shuttle over so that an NRO satellite could grab a close-up of its heat shield, to see how it had held up through the atmospheric friction. Only a few people at the agency were aware of the operation.
The public learns about the true extent of the government’s seeing powers only after a long lag. The space historian Dwayne Day recently told me that the intelligence community operated large optics in space before NASA even started working on the Hubble, in 1977. He said that the technology helping today’s ground-based observatories see through the blur of the atmosphere was first developed by the military, and then later shared with civilian astronomers. The NRO may have all kinds of telescopes. In 2012, the agency even gave NASA a Hubble-class observatory as a surprise gift. It had just been lying around.
Ivezić knew that the Vera Rubin Observatory would need to avoid revealing the full extent of America’s space-based surveillance apparatus. He agreed to set up a system that would remove classified information from the telescope’s images, but he and his mysterious interlocutors did not initially agree about how it should work. Some of their concerns were easy to assuage. The Defense Intelligence Agency sometimes asks to be informed when foreign nationals use America’s most powerful radio observatories, in case those people were to point them at something sensitive, presumably. No such protocols would be necessary for the Vera Rubin’s Chilean operators, because the telescope has a fixed, 10-year observation plan. Ivezić said he showed it to his government counterparts and assured them that no one would be able to deviate from it.
Ivezić was most worried about the possibility that he would be made to adopt a system like one that he said the Air Force had imposed on a much less powerful astronomical survey called Pan-STARRS, about a dozen years ago. The images taken by that project’s telescopes in Hawaii were routed to a military facility—“the dark side,” as Ivezić put it—where they were edited before being sent on to astronomers. The edits weren’t especially surgical. “You would get back your image, and all the military assets would be blacked out,” Ivezić told me. “It looked like someone had streaked a marker across it, and it had a huge impact on the science that people were able to do.”
After some back-and-forth, Ivezić said, he and his counterparts came up with a less invasive way to remove secret American assets from the observatory’s instant alerts. A government agency—no one told him which one—would chip in $5 million for the construction of a dedicated network for moving sensitive data. Each time the telescope were to take one of its 30-second tile images of the sky, the file would be immediately encrypted, without anyone looking at it first, and then sent on to a secure facility in California.
Next, an automated system would compare the image with previous images of the same tile. It would cut out small “postage stamp” pictures of any new objects it finds, be they asteroids, exploding stars, or spy satellites. It would filter out the postage stamps that might depict secret U.S. assets and, one minute later, send all the rest, together with their coordinates, to an alert service available to astronomers worldwide. Three days and eight hours later, the entire tile image would be released to astronomers, untouched by black marker or any other technology of redaction.
By then, the spy satellites would likely have gone somewhere else. They are elusive, after all. Their orbits are irregular, and they shift direction often. Not even the world’s most accomplished astronomers would be able to infer their present locations from a line of light streaking through a three-day-old image.
Ivezić told me that the length of the data embargo was the most difficult term to work out. He had initially asked for the full images to be released after 10 hours. He said that his negotiating partners wanted it to be closer to seven days. In the end, Ivezić was happy with the middle ground that they settled on.
This account of the negotiation comes primarily from Ivezić. National Science Foundation and Department of Energy staff confirmed some of the general outlines of his story but would not disclose with whom he’d been negotiating, or the name of the agency that paid for the encrypted network. The Space Force declined to comment on the process. The NRO said that it had no information to offer me about any observatories.
Ivezić had nothing bad to say about his mysterious interlocutors. To the contrary, he told me that they seemed genuinely concerned about the risk of compromising the Vera Rubin’s science mission. “They did not come and say, ‘The law is on our side; you must do this, and that’s the end of it,’” Ivezić said. “After all, we are spending $1 billion of the government’s money,” he added, with a laugh.
