Nibiru aka Planet X 2012

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

This week has found Amanda Forsythe somewhat distracted from her work on photon-sail powered interstellar space travel, due to the flurry of internet chatter and media reports about the impending collision of Nibiru, also known as Planet X. Since it’s slated to happen in 2012, Amanda is naturally concerned, since she was hoping to make it to her 14th birthday and beyond. Now, there’s nothing Amanda enjoys more than a good internet controversy (although actual internet conspiracy theories are more the domain of her pal Sanjay Dosanjh).

Still, Amanda thinks it’s an interesting enough topic that she’s going to do more research on it at the STAR Academy. She hasn’t had a chance to discuss it with George yet, who is something of an expert when it comes to previously unknown celestial objects. But it’s top of her list and she’ll have more to say about it in the coming weeks – coincidentally, when I am past my Dec. 15th deadline for the first draft of the sequel to STAR Academy.
