Evidence

fact ⇄ what kind of claim · live

3,600 years; 'almost identical to Halley's'; 'between Mars and Jupiter'; 'three or four times the size of Earth'

the book's own words, with page numbers; no aphelion, eccentricity or mass anywhere in it

REPORTED

a = 235 AU, e = 0.9885, aphelion 467 AU, 25.6 km/s at perihelion, 0.15 at aphelion

Kepler's third law and the ellipse; no free parameter between the words and these numbers

EXACT

One passage, Venus to Neptune massive: the planets barely notice; Nibiru's period does

RK4 N-body, massive run minus massless control; belt as 160 test bodies, differenced particle by particle

MODELLED

Hundreds of years of period per passage, from Jupiter and Saturn alone; median life 171 passages

the textbook Δ(1/a) ≈ 5×10⁻⁴ AU⁻¹ per perihelion passage, integrated live rather than imported

MODELLED

V 19.5 today, never fainter than 20.0 at any phase; Pan-STARRS reached 21.5

H from size and albedo, 5 log(rΔ); survey depths from Brown, Holman & Batygin 2024

EXACT

The belt is 3.3% of the Moon; moving Earth inward costs 11 km/s; the tide at 2 AU is 2×10⁻⁶ of the Moon's

Pitjeva 2018, the two-impulse budget, M/d³; one-line arithmetic on published values

EXACT

Halley's node and argument of perihelion; a density for the stated size; the belt's planet phases at 556 BCE

liberties the book leaves open, taken and labelled; every one is a dial

COMPUTED · Kepler from one number and one pointer

The orbit, from the book's words

Period3,600 yr

The one number the book states. Kepler's third law turns it into the semi-major axis on the right.

Perihelion distance2.70 AU

'Between Mars and Jupiter': the belt, 2.1 to 3.3 AU. Never given in AU. The eccentricity follows.

Inclination to the ecliptic162.3°

'Almost identical to that of Halley's Comet' (p. 87): 162.3°, retrograde. Above 90° is retrograde; 17.7° is the same tilt the prograde way.

Year of the last perihelion556 BCE

556 BCE is the pass Lynn reports Sitchin giving; the book's own dates are 11,000 and 7,500 BCE. This sets where the body is today and the planets' phases at the passage.

The body: 'three or four times the size of Earth'

Camera

The battle

Tiamat's orbit2.70 AU

Where the upper half starts before the North Wind carries it to 1 AU. Never given; the belt is the natural reading.

Impact closing speed40 km/s

A satellite of a retrograde body meets a prograde planet fast: 40 to 60 km/s is the natural range.

One number, 3,600 years, fixes the semi-major axis at 235 AU by Kepler's third law. A perihelion in the belt then fixes e = 0.9885 and an aphelion of 467 AU. The book never printed any of these; they follow from its words. Right now the claimed body sits 410 AU out.

What is exact vs modelled here

Exact: the orbit from the period and the perihelion (Kepler), the speeds, the time inside any radius, the magnitude arithmetic from size, albedo and distance, the tidal ratio, the two-impulse budget, the mass ledger from published values. Reported: every quotation and every date the book gives, the return-date ledger, the celestial-battle sequence. Modelled: the N-body passages (RK4, Venus to Neptune massive, nothing fitted), the belt test particles, the random-phase kick pool and the 1/a random walk, the density that turns the stated size into a mass, and Nibiru's node and argument of perihelion, borrowed from Halley because the book gives none.

The model, in full

Kepler's third law converts the period into a semi-major axis; the dialled perihelion fixes the eccentricity; Halley's inclination, node and argument orient the ellipse. Planets come from the JPL/Standish mean elements (valid 1800-2050, extrapolated where the dial asks). The Passage integrates Sun, Venus through Neptune and Nibiru with mutual gravity by RK4 at one-day steps for ±20 years about perihelion, twice: once with Nibiru at the dialled mass and once massless, and reports the difference in each planet's osculating elements, plus 160 belt test particles differenced one by one. The Clock sends a massless body through the four giants at random phases (its own node and argument randomised) and reads the barycentric period after each pass; the 1/a kicks feed a random walk to ejection. Magnitudes: H from radius and geometric albedo, V = H + 5 log(rΔ) + 0.02α, Earth from the same elements. All of it is pinned by scripts/nibiru-tune.mjs.

Where this instrument takes liberties

The book gives no node, argument, epoch, mass or density: the bench borrows Halley's orientation, offers five density presets for the stated size, and takes 556 BCE (Lynn's report of Sitchin) as the default last passage, all on dials. The planets' phases at 556 BCE come from mean elements extrapolated 2,500 years, good enough for a random-looking geometry, not for an ephemeris. The passage window is ±20 years, which catches every terrestrial kick and most of the giants'; the Clock's kick pool uses ±40 years and two-day steps through the giants only. The ×√N columns are naive random walks with no secular coupling; the "if it survived" column is a hypothetical the Clock view says never happens. Survey depths are quoted single numbers for surveys with structured coverage. The belt scatter in the 3D view is set dressing with the Kirkwood gaps left in for looks.
