I am guessing that means he has retracted his 5/2003 arrival date.

You would call a link that gives references to Science and Vie french magazine crap? I dont think so. That is not based on pure speculation. A french astronomer actually mapped a location of some body with an orbit of 4000 years. This process actually involves usage of scientific data. But to determine whether it is a planet, planetoid, dwarf, or comet is another question in itself.

well....where are your SUBSTACIATED, MAGNIFICENT, MEANINGFULL, FOUNDED, NON-SPECULATIVE, INFORAMTIVE links ?

I'm pretty sure that the Aztec found this and have been able to move on the 4th dimension. That's why they mysteriously disappeared.
The same article also gives references to New Scientist, which isn't a great scientific publication for anyone. So with that as a reference, why should I think this French magazine is any good either?
In other words, not bright at all. So how does this planet suppoert life, when it's SO bloody far away?
Another problem with this image is when looking at it, you'll see that Earth's orbit is the inner most ring. So going out from Earth we have Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Mystery Planet, and the Nibiru. So what's this Mystery Planet then? Looks like someone may have goofed in making thier fake images to me!

Does mars have a more than negligable effect on earth? No. For Niburu to noticably, physically affect earth's orbit (i.e. give earth a temp. additional acc. of 10 m/s^2 [which, for short distances, is about the same rate at which you are being acc. towards the earth]) it would have had to have passed within about 30000 kilomters of earth. In comparison, the moon is about 300,000 km away from earth, the sun averages at about about 150 million km or 1 AU, mars at 1.52 AU, thus there is a lot of space in between planets . However, if you look at the pic again (providing that the dotted lines are the asteroid belt), nib barely touched the inner solar system. Now the question remains would nib which is the size of mars and at its perigee located between mars and jupiter(2.7 AU[2.7times earth-sun distance]) be such a drastic, noteworthy event in your example of 2000 B.C.? Consider that mars is barely noticable to the naked eye at 1.52 AU.
And regardless of how close to the Inner Solar System this object supposedly comes, if it were the mass of Mars, it would STILL have some affect on the rest of the Solar System. What formulas and calculations did you use to come up with the idea that it would have to pass within 30,000 km of Earth? And even though the Moon and Sun are far away from Earth in human standards, in astronimical aspects they're still rather close. They both do have an affect on the Earth, mainly seen in the form of tidal forces.
As it stands now, 99.85% of the mass of the solar system is in the sun, and the planets take up another 0.135% of the mass. Thus, 99.985% of the mass of the solar system is to be found in the sun and its planets. The remaining 0.015% is distributed among the natural satellites, comets, meteoroids, asteroids (minor planets), and the interstellar medium itself. Therefore, given the volume of the solar system and the obvious concentrations of mass, the overall solar system is very empty. Even though objects are drawn into the center of the solar system by the gravitational pull of the sun, it is highly unlikely that anything large will hit our planet (once in 100 plus years has recently been given as the time between occurrences of a noticeable collision; once in 100,000 plus years between very large collisions). As an example of the vast emptiness of the solar system, picture the Rose Bowl as the inner solar system and an orange on the fifty-yard line as the sun. The planets would be like sand grains on the playing field. The chance of something from outside the stadium hitting one of those sand grains is very slim.
