If you’re reading this, you can be reasonably sure that life on Earth was not extinguished in a screaming fireball during mid-May 2003, nor even as a result of the more sublime, but equally dreaded, Pole Shift.

The initial date set for humanity’s extinction was 15 May 2003. It had been announced in 2001 by un-named extraterrestrials from the Zeta Reticuli star system, via their channel on Earth, Nancy Lieder, who lives in California and speaks to the world via her website www.zetatalk.com, as well as a book and a video.

The shape of our doom was to be thus: a rogue planet, known to readers of the series of epic books by Russian-born ancient astronaut author Zechariah Sitchin as Nibiru (see panel on next page), and to astronomers as the elusive Planet X, at least four times the size of the Earth and, according to the Zetas, visible between the constellations of Orion and Taurus, was on the stretch of its alleged 3,600 year orbit that would bring it perilously close to our own planet.
