The Planet X Cover-up in
the Mainstream Media (Part 1)
By: Justin Braithwaite
On December 30th, 1983, NASA's Chief Scientist of the Infra-Red Astronomical Satellite telescope (IRAS) announced that NASA had discovered Planet X.
Just one week after the story of Planet X was released, the magazine US News and World Report ran a story retracting the announcement and NASA has been silent ever since.
That didn’t stop Dr. Robert S. Harrington who was the chief astronomer of the US Naval Observatory until his mysterious death in 1993.
By analyzing an extensive amount of publications relating to Planet X, in chronological order, not only does the cover up of Planet X become extraordinary, but one gains a unique perspective of the evolution of the Planet X discovery.
The following is a comprehensive collection of excerpts from Planet X articles dating back to the 1950’s. Pay close attention to the tone of each article as the theories progress.
Early Speculation — 1950 to 1968
In 1950, Immanuel Velikovsky published his ground-breaking work, Worlds in Collision. The hateful scientific attacks upon him were crushing, yet, his book was found open on Einstein's desk after his death.This suppression was aimed not just at Velikovsky. It was aimed at the kind of knowledge that naturally flows out from what is certainly, one of the most challenging books in the history of science. If was in the midst of this scientific pogrom, that the Planet X story truly began.

The new object for some time was designated by such names as Planet X, the Flagstaff object, and the trans-Neptunian planet.
Some suggested that is should be called
Lowell of the late director of the observatory since he had calculated
that another planet must lie beyond Neptune and had seemingly predicted
its location fairly accurately.

He says scientists have observed that Neptune is
being lifted above it's normal path in the heavens and that the cause
may well be a huge tenth or perhaps even an eleventh planet slowly
circling in space millions of miles beyond the present known limits of
the solar system. "Perhaps in the near future,"
Dr. Levitt declares, "astronomers will again be
pointing their telescopes to predetermined points searching for the
point of light called Planet X."

The next day the news spread out over the world. Soon
newspaper and magazine reporters arrived in Flagstaff and swarmed over
the observatory located on Mars Hill.
Letters and telegrams poured in, containing
congratulations and suggesting names for the new planet. In early May,
the name Pluto was selected by Lowell Observatory and officially
proposed to the American Astronomical Society.
The discovery of Pluto was officially announced on March 13th, 1930 and this article was telling the story of its discovery on the 33rd anniversary date.

"We have a 90 to 99 percent confidence that
Uranus and Neptune are being disturbed , and one candidate for is a
single Planet X. It's conceivable there could other gravitational
effects on the two orbits."
"We haven't ruled out other matter which
could be in orbit around the sun. It could be small particulate matter.
It could be more than one planet that are very small. The best
hypothesis is a single planet X at one to four Earth masses."

It seems NASA was confident that something was out there and since it was yet to be discovered, there was no need to hide anything.

Planet X Delays Comet's Arrival
Planet X Delays Comet's Arrival
"Intolerable errors" in the predicted timetable of
Halley's Comet have led a University of California scientific team to
believe a 10th planet may be circling the sun beyond Pluto - outermost
known planet in the solar system.
Three computer scientists at the
University's Lawrence Livermore Laboratory said Friday their prediction
of the planet's existence is based on mathematical calculations related
to the orbit of the mysterious comet.
It is important to note that while Planet X was still undiscovered, the scientific community was very open about their theories and research.
At this point, NASA is already on record stating that they are sure Planet X exists and now a scientific team from the University of California concurs.

To make his predictions, Joseph L. Brady, supervisor
of numerical techniques at the University of California, used
information from previous observations of Halley's Comet, which has been
reported since before the birth of Christ. With the laboratory's
enormous computer system he worked out the planet's probable location.

But Brady thinks he can supply a good diary or "ephemeris" of Planet X's movements. And astronomers might spot it because the planet would move against the background of stars which are so much further away they appear not to move at all.
By studying the mysterious deviations in the orbit of Haley’s Comet, scientists in the 1970’s are beginning to formulate hypothesis to the size, location, orbit and distance of Planet X.

Beyond the Edge
Beyond the Edge
A school boy in Britain says he knew it was there all
the time. Perhaps so, but he didn't know just where it was, and among
astronomers, as among old wives, seeing is believing. X may take a long
time to find.
It is now on the edge of the Milky Way, where even a
small area encompasses thousands of stars, many brighter than our new
planet.
It took 15 years to find Pluto even after its location was known. We may have to be patient.
The important thing to note from this article is that it is indicative of the scientific community’s increasing acceptance of Planet X.
It is becoming more a question of when, and not if, Planet X will be discovered.

The discovery of a tenth planet in our solar system
by virtue, evidently, of a ripple in the glide path of Halley's Comet is
unquestionably a triumph of mathematics best appreciated by
mathematicians. The scientists of the University of California's
Lawrence Livermore Laboratory can take a bow.
The mathematic existence of Planet X is celebrated by the University of California…

"Not so." Retorted Giclas. (Henry L. Gicias, executive director of Lowell Observatory)
"If Brady had contacted us, we would have
showed him photographic plates for his predicted position of the planet.
These plates have been carefully examined and no planet has been found.
Gicias is referring to the photographic plates that were taken from 1929-1945 at the Lowell Observatory that covered the whole northern sky down to magnitude 16 and 17.

Brown Dwarf Possibilities — 1973 to 1980
Of course, what is known today is that Planet X is a brown dwarf-like planet that would not show up in a regular photograph as it would have to be viewed via the infrared spectrum.

Last year Joseph Brady announced that disturbances in
the orbit of Haley's Comet could be accounted for by a planet even more
distant than Pluto and having a mass of three times that of Saturn.
Brady's Planet X has been searched for carefully but it has not been
found. Like Vulcan, is Planet X non-existent?

Pluto: A Recognized, Yet Still Enigmatic World
In 1978, Dr. James W. Christy of the United States
Naval Observatory found that Pluto had a moon. It was named Charon for
the boatman in Greek mythology. Subsequent analysis of the moon's
motions made it clear that Pluto was small in both diameter and mass.
It could not be Planet X. Indeed, astronomers now
believe that the whole hypothesis was based on erroneous observations,
and that there is no Planet X anywhere.

Pluto May Disappear in the 1980's but the 10th Planet May Be Found
Two other astronomers at the The Naval Observatory -
Robert Harrington and Thomas Van Flanders - theorize that in the distant
past an unknown planet passed near Neptune and gravitational forces
ripped off a chunk of matter that became Pluto.
Planet X's own motion was violently disturbed by the
near collision and it was hurled into the darkest regions of the solar
system, where it's probably drifting around, too faint to be seen.
It is interesting that the subject of Planet X fell silent between 1973 and mid-1980. That would change in April of that year.
Enter Dr. Robert Harrington — April 9, 1980
On April 9th, 1980, Robert Harrington enters the picture. Although he would not actually discover Planet X for over another decade, we can see that he had theories of Planet X back in 1980.The author of this article goes on to prognosticate that Pluto would ultimately lose its status as the 9th planet in the solar system and Planet X would take its place.

Old Clues Spark New Scramble to Find Planet X
Old Clues Spark New Scramble to Find Planet X
Recent calculations by the US Naval Observatory have
confirmed the orbital perturbation exhibited by Uranus and Neptune,
which Dr Thomas C. Van Flandern, an astronomer at the observatory, says
could be explained by "a single undiscovered planet."
He and a colleague, Dr Robert Harrington, calculate
that the tenth planet should be two to five times more massive than
Earth and have a highly elliptical orbit that takes it some 5 billion
miles beyond that of Pluto - hardly next-door but still within that
gravitational influence of the sun.
This article goes on to explain that even the astronomers who are not proponents of the tenth planet theory agree that something else is responsible.
However, the perturbed orbits of Neptune and Uranus is no longer a debate.

Planet X Keeps Astrologers Guessing
Planet X Keeps Astrologers Guessing
They say it's like looking for lint in a storm.
Herrington creates theoretical models of the solar system, inserting
Planet X in various places, to see if anything agrees with what is
already known about the heavens. Van Flandern does the same thing with
complex mathematical computations.
The astronomers report they are looking
exclusively in the southern hemisphere. And they believe the planet will
be found beyond Pluto, perhaps as many as five billion miles away.
Herrington thinks the planet is of intermediate size, or three to five
times the mass of Earth.
It closes with an interesting tidbit about Harrington feeling pressed for time to find Planet X before funding dries up for their research.
Additionally, the northern hemisphere has been the focal point in the search for Planet X until now, and Robert Harrington is searching in the southern hemisphere.

Comets, Planet X and the Orbit of Neptune
The recent discovery that Pluto's mass is negligible
compared with that of the Earth has raised again the question of the
cause of the important discrepancies between the observed and computed
positions of the outer planets.
...but the non-discovery of any single body of this size puts the 'Planet X' hypothesis in severe difficulty.
It is noteworthy that he credits Harrington for determining that the mass of Pluto is not sufficient to account for the discrepancies in the orbits of the outer planets.

It may be, as some astronomers suspect, a "brown
dwarf" star, a celestial object that was not quite massive enough for
its thermonuclear furnace to ignite.
Since most stars are paired, it is not unreasonable to assume that the Sun might have such a dim companion.
Or the force could be from a 10th planet,
the long-sought Planet X. Evidence assembled in recent years has led
several groups of astronomers to renew the search for a large planet out
beyond Pluto and Neptune.
