Researcher David Meade has predicted the arrival of the mythical planet, also called Nibiru and referred to in ancient Sumerian tablets, will destroy Earth. But his estimated date of September 23 was proved wrong last month, prompting him to revise it to today. And he says this will start an astonishing seven years of natural disasters and nuclear conflict, ushering in the end of the world, according to Daily Star Online.

GETTY Planet Nibiru could bring an alien race

But some conspiracy theorists are now astonishingly claiming the arrival of the planet could actually bring an invasion of aliens. They say extra-terrestrials called the Anunnaki lived on the planet and once visited Earth. It is claimed they passed on their intergalactic knowledge to ancient civilisations in the Middle East. Now some theorists claim they still thrive on Nibiru and are returning to our own planet to take it over.

GETTY Planet X was predicted in the Bible, it is claimed

Based on biblical prophecy, Mr Meade said the planet passing the Earth would trigger The Rapture with earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions, caused by the celestial bodies’ gravitation force. The Nibiru disaster has been linked to numerous Biblical passages, including Revelation 12:1. It reads: “A great sign appeared in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun with the moon under her feet and a crown of 12 stars on her head. “And being with child, she cried out in her travail and was in anguish of delivery."

Mr Meade claimed the “sign in the sky” refers to the stunning eclipse experienced last month. He explained: “The great sign of The Woman as described in revelation 12:1-2 forms and lasts for only a few hours. “According to computer generated astronomical models, this sign has never before occurred in human history. “It will occur once on September 23, 2017. It will never occur again.
