The hottest summer in Italy was tens of years ago; same for the coldest winter; same for the most powerful earthquake; same for the most powerful eruption; same for the most rainy summer; same for everything I can think of. Every summer some newspaper says "this is the hottest summer since...", however what follows is usually a number like, "1998" or *maybe* "1995", so it's not a big deal. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Don't know about the rest of the world, but I don't think weather has changed "dramatically".Wow, now that's what I call a real scientist! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />Euh? So, the Ice Ages happened in a matter of hours? Earth would not freeze so quickly even if the sun suddenly vanished.Make up your mind. These estimates are different by orders of magnitude. BTW, if it is 4 times larger than Earth and 100 times as dense, it should have 400 times its mass. Assuming that with "larger" he is talking about volume, of course. If he is talking about radius, then the mass is even bigger, but still many zeros behind Jupiter. Incidentally, Jupiter is bigger AND closer than this planet X, so why isn't Jupiter "perturbating" Earth too?Please... Earth's magnetic field is weak. Very weak. It doesn't influence Earth's rotation. If this planet's field is so strong that it can affect a weak magnetic field to the point where it can make a few quadrillions tons of mass turn, then there's no way the government covers this up, simply because every compass in the world would already have stopped working correctly.Wow, and all this archeotech has vanished in 3600 years? These atlantideans, or whatever they are, built with biodegradable materials, it seems. Cool.I don't see mention of advanced discoveries in ancient writings. Probably the magnetic field affected their minds, to<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f635.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt="o.O" title="Er... what?    o.O"  data-smilie="12"data-shortname="o.O" />h, I see. Aliens live around this thing, too. This is becoming more and more ridiculous. See ya.If you're wondering why I took the time to write this, it's because NASA paid me to do it.</blockquote>
