Conspiracy theorists are convinced that Planet X will destroy humanity as we know it when colliding with Earth in an event called the Nibiru cataclysm.
As long as humans have walked the Earth there has been theories about when and how the world will end.
Many conspiracy theorists believe this disastrous encounter will happen in the 21st century.
Recently, footage has emerged showing a sunrise in Aberdour, Scotland.
But one person believes that you can see an entire fleet of destruction on its way in the clip.
The conspiracist said: “What you see are extremely large bodies, which I believe are from the Nibiru System.”
What is Planet X?
Planet X is widely believed by conspiracy theorists to be a mythical planet hiding on the edge of our solar system.
The rogue planet supposedly passes through the inner solar system once every few thousand years.
The term Nibiru comes from ancient Sumerian and means “Planet of the crossing”.
Some people have linked the crossing of the planet to past catastrophes and biblical events, such as the Flood.
Christian numerologist David Meade explained it as: “It’s a mini constellation made up of a dark star, smaller than our Sun, which hosts seven orbiting bodies.
“Some are smaller than our moon, a couple are larger than our Earth. The dark star is called Nemesis, or some people call it Planet X.”
The name Planet X is usually given to a hypothetical undiscovered planet in the solar system.
Pluto was previously known as Planet X before it was discovered.
The bizarre theory of Nibiru was hatched by linguist Zecharia Sitchin in the controversial 1976 book Twelfth Planet.
In the book he claims that Nibiru is inhabited by an alien race called the Anunnaki – referred to in the Bible as the Nephilim (fallen angels).
Sitchin claimed that the Nephilim came to Earth 450,000 years ago to mine minerals, specifically gold and established the Sumerian civilisation.
The civilisation supposedly told of a giant planet which orbited the Sun every 3,600 years.
Mr Meade has linked Nibiru to a number of Bible verses, specifically Revelation 12:1-2 which reads: “A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
“And being with child, she cried out in her prevail and was in anguish of delivery.”
He claimed that “the great sign” was the solar eclipse in the US in August 2017.
Mr Meade predicted that Nibiru would cause devastation on Earth on September 23, 2017.
He said: “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. When it occurs, it places the Earth immediately before the time of the Sixth Seal of Revelation.”
Since his failed prediction, he has changed his claims.
He has claimed that people have misunderstood the prophecy and that doomsday will take place over a seven year period.
Nibiru has been blamed for many strange events on Earth – from days of darkness to potential apocalypses.
Does Planet X exist?
NASA has denied the existence of Planet X – and the science community has rejected claims it is on a collision course with Earth.
NASA said: “Various people are ‘predicting’ that world will end on September 23 when another planet collides with Earth.
“The planet in question, Nibiru, doesn’t exist, so there will be no collision.
“The story of Nibiru has been around for years (as has the ‘days of darkness’ tale) and is periodically recycled into new apocalyptic fables.
“Nibiru and other stories about wayward planets are an internet hoax. There is no factual basis for these claims.
“If Nibiru or Planet X were real and headed for an encounter with the Earth … astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does not exist.”
