Some Obscurish facts
#266
Ancient Sumerian texts indicate that the Earth (Tiamat) was struck by a large planet, which moved it into its present orbit, and created the Moon and the Asteroid Belt. The planet 'Nibiru' (called 'Marduk' in the Babylonian text 'Enuma elish'), as it came into the solar system on its clockwise elliptical course, struck Tiamat, which was moving in its ordained counterclockwise orbit. One of Nibiru's satellites struck Tiamat first, followed by two more of Nibiru's moons. Then Nibiru itself, an enormous planetary body, struck Tiamat, smashing one half of the planet into pieces, which became the Earth's Moon and the 'Great Band' (Asteroid Belt). The other half of the planet, which was struck by a smaller moon of Nibiru, was moved into a new orbit, along with a chunk of material which became its moon. The new planet was then called 'KI,' meaning 'cleaved one.' The Earth's original moons were dispersed, many changing the direction of their orbits. At this distance, the planet would not be visible from Earth. The ancient tale of Nibiru's Celestial Battle is actually scientifically sophisticated, and current advances in astronomy have recently corroborated certain aspects of the Sumerian cosmogony, among them the following: The March 16, 1999 announcement by NASA at the 30th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in Houston of the theory of the origin of Earth's Moon as a catastrophic collision with a 'Mars-size planet.' Why there is a strange gravitational 'pull' on Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, which indicates there is another body of significant size beyond it.
