Hear ye! Hear ye! Nibiru, the fictitious planet in the hyped-up 2012 doomsday scare, is not real! This putative world has made a big splash in the human imagination and cyberspace, but there’s not the slightest trace of a ripple of it upon our solar system and planet Earth. There is simply no evidence that it actually exists, despite the claim that Nibiru will be in closest proximity to the Earth between Aug 17 and Sept 26. The idea is that a planet-sized object – sometimes called Nibiru, sometimes Planet X – will collide with or pass by Earth in 2012. But this idea is not supported by any scientific evidence and has been rejected as pseudoscience by astronomers and planetary scientists. If you have any worries at all about a rogue planet called Nibiru invading the inner solar system, please watch the video below.
This video is courtesy of David Morrison, who is a senior scientist at the NASA Astrobiology Institute at NASA Ames Research Center in California. Morrison has said he hopes that the non-arrival of Nibiru will serve as a teaching moment for the public, instructing us all on “rational thought and baloney detection.” But he also says he doubts that will happen. By the way, we’ve seen wild claims on the Internet that NASA scientists have confirmed Nibiru’s existence. They have done no such thing. For example, check out this claim that Nibiru and Earth would collide on July 21, 2012. Obviously, they didn’t collide.

Absolutely agree with you. There are a lot of things we don't know.
We know enough about fission and fusion and thermal reactions, and what would happen if another star were to be close by our sun (not good........imagine the air temp on Earth going past that of "Broil" on your stove).
But of course we've had plenty of YouTubers who wouldn't even know what end of a telescope to look into post their iPhone pictures and videos declaring that they've found Nibiru!
We know that people post videos on YouTube simply to see if they can get a high count, and if they can get the video to go viral.
We know that people fake things (ADG(UK) is a VERY good example of a group of people that do this.
And we also know that there are many people out there that are so desperate for Nibiru to exist, that they will grasp at anything, anything at all, and say that it's proof, because they so desperately need to believe in Nibiru (or any other "End Of The World" idea out there).
(que the idiots that claim we can't because it's approaching from the south pole, never mind that anyone south of the equator can see the entire southern sky...... ).

OP, you exemplify why so many of us seeking truth are shunned. You appear to be utterly insane. You're hurting the rest of us with threads like this.

Enter a woman named Nancy Lieder, founder of a website called ZetaTalk. Lieder describes herself as an alien contactee with the ability to receive messages from extra-terrestrials from the Zeta Reticuli star system through an implant in her brain. She predicted the return of Nibiru in May 2003. When that event failed to materialize, doomsday prognosticators forwarded the arrival date to 2012. And why not 2012? After all, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar – used by the pre-Columbian Mayan civilization among others – completes a cycle in 2012. Unless you’ve been on the dark side of the moon, you know that this ending of a cycle in the Mayan calendar has caused its own doomsday stir. It is probably the reason 2012 has become so littered with doomsday predictions. Kathryn Reese-Taylor on the Mayans and 2012 If Nibiru did exist, we should be able to see it Time is running out. It’s already 2012. But where is Nibiru, the great planet that’s supposed to bombard Earth and the inner solar system? Given that its orbital period is 3,600 years, and that it is now the latter part of 2012, Nibiru should be well inside of Jupiter’s orbit by now. Dazzling Jupiter, the fifth planet outward from the sun, is impossible to miss with the unaided eye. In fact, you can view Jupiter’s four major moons with ordinary binoculars. So why is Nibiru nowhere to be seen?

This I don't understand, why would they want there to be a real Nibiru and an end to the world? I have to admit, yes I am rather freaked at the possibility, but would much rather find proof that it is not real than proof that it is.
And yes, if it were going to hit in 2012 and was a massive something, then lots of people would have definite proof and visuals by now.
