Why can't we just admit that something has cycled and come close enough, once again, to our solar system to, by it's mass and/or density to cause perturbed orbits and heat.
A combusting object encased in an iron core is new and yes, it's different and the items encircling it may be different but a dense and/or massive object coming closer can cause all of these effects and leave again
And I really couldn't end for the time being without once again mentioning the interview that Dr. Glen gave to the Southeast Missourian entitled 'Cape doctor says he's not leading survivalist group...'
Dr. Byron Glenn of Cape Girardeau says he wants nothing to do with the people he sees as online crackpots trumpeting a "conspiracy wrapped in an enigma."...
Glenn said he's been harassed and threatened by doomsday believers of "Planet X," an idea spreading in the blogosphere and in online chat rooms about a brown dwarf star, a low-mass object rapidly approaching the solar system and bent on destroying much of the Earth. He said that believers, apparently followers of Terral L. Croft, or "Terral03" as he is known in anxiety-ridden chat rooms, have shown up at his North [redacted--DJW001] family practice demanding answers.
It appears survival is becoming a financial matter. In some correspondence, the group talks about raising money to accommodate hundreds of people looking for space in the caves, those who would not be able to cover the costs otherwise.

Secondly, gravity is actually magnetism? OK then, if the author is so sure that gravity is a farce and what we see as attractive masses can only be attributed to magnetism, then why doesn't plastic, non-ferrous ceramic, etc, float?
I could keep going...but what's the point.

I will say that I have myself, checked and re-checked the facts here. I find your theory to be puzzling. You're right this is not what we we've always been taught. Your theory goes against the fact that we have always looked at gravity and magnetism as two separate forces. However, I have searched for and studied the Unified Theory of Everything almost my whole life, and seriously do wonder after my fact checking if your right. I heard about your concept on Youtube and entered Gravity is Magnetism into my yahoo search engine and was quite surprised to see that your theory holds second rank. Now I begin to search for math of this theory and it brings me to having to sit down with my colleagues and spinning the numbers. This may take a long time to prove or disprove. If you're right Keeker, the world will change dramatically. If magnetism really is at the heart of all creation, a lot of science books will need to be re-written. I for one want to be a part of that, so I have every intention of doing this math and doing my best to get to the bottom of your theory. If your not familiar with who I am , I am a professor at City University Of New York, and have done many spots on Sci Channel. If you look me up you will see me on Wiki-Pedia and this will prove my dedication on this subject.

This issue of Saturn's rotation has apparanetly been happily explained by some of you out there as merely someone forgetting that reflecting telescopes can invert images. So a 90 degree rotation is merely a 45 degree orientation in reflected. I'd like to add that this rotation was measured as gradually appearing over a month, not over a single night, so this must mean the observer had their telescope on a slightly diferent angle each night and this new angle was reflected every night to give the impression of a gradual tipping. Yeah, right.
Others said its because the telescope rotates as it tracks. Yes, so does the CCD attached to its base. Moreover, a 90 degree rotation can only be a reflection of a 45 degree orientation - no other angle.
Next point to make here. Did anyone notice that the huge dust ring that formed around Saturn (not explained by the "I don't believe in the Nibiru" people)
Sorry, I don't buy your explanation at this stage.

Appeal to authority is a logical fallacy, plus it's never been established that Kaku actually wrote that.
