I've seen on links provided and from others that aren't that it will be visible at 9:30am ct (my time) by amateur astronomers but I'm having trouble finding info on whether or not it will be visible at night. Any help? Thanks to op for posting this.

If the technology doesn't exist to spot the really small ones (this one being the size of a bus) how come NORAD can track every piece of space debris out there larger than 10 centimeters?


NORAD can track extremely small objects that have known orbits, and are also extremely close to Earth (just a few hundred kms above the surface). That is completely different to detecting unknown objects approaching from deep space.

Thanks to the OP for posting this. I just caught the end of this on the news and didn't know what they were on about. We're not getting much notice are we? Either this is deliberate or they truly didn't know themselves. Both are scary.

Ah so if Nibiru sneaks up on us from the south NASA and NORAD won't see it?

Oh well no worries. We always have Apophis to look forward to...

I get DIBBS on Apophis !!!!!! 2029....

I wonder if it will take out ISS first?




I mentioned that one in 2006... the size of a stadium... it will get so close it will change its path... if it doesn't hit us

Asteroid size of the Rose Bowl...



You heard it here first.... Now we have an official doomsday incase we survive 2012...

This one will take us out in 2036...
Maybe THIS is Nibiru and they got the dates wrong?

It will make a near Earth pass in 2029 first, close enough to see the dimples....

Nasa plans to drop a transmitter on to it so we know were its going...


Here is the path... I wonder how many satellites it will knock out of orbit

So now tell me if all of the money spent is actually worth while? NOPE. Just imagine the warning if it was earth directed. They are wasting billions on nothing more than self profit.

Can you see a bus 60.000km away ...?

Last night whilst wondering in and out of my shed I saw on two separate occasions shooting stars (stuff getting burned up). This is rather odd as I have only seen one other during my 40 odd years on the planet, but it was very clear last night. I wonder if this is a collection of rocks - or maybe just a coincidence? Hey, I did get two wishes though

I think closest is 3.30pm GMT and apparently it will briefly flare up. So amateur astronomers may get a view though not with the naked eye.

yeah it's a small one...and still pretty far out there. I agree.
Maybe the noises we have all been hearing - like the trumpet sounds are just it's horn as a friendly hello...look out...as it goes by.

Just a theory.

While we're at it, let's talk about the one that missed us yesterday, and the one that missed us a day before yesterday, and the one before that, and the one that is coming up next....
Somebody has to.

Do you think, they have some sort of gravitational pull ??
59,839.2 kilometers is far away, but still close at the same time to potentially cause a disruption...


Plus we are having an X-flare solar thing today.

Nibiru (or anything else of appreciable size) can't "sneak up" on us from anywhere. The south celestial pole can be observed from the entire southern hemisphere of Earth, so it would be seen long before it got anywhere near the inner Solar System.

Of COURSE it can... it has Annunaki cloaking technology... don't you know anything?

Sheesh
