Description

A rogue planet on a collision course with Earth. A forgotten race of alien creators. A global conspiracy of silence. For decades, the myth of Nibiru has haunted the edges of science, fueling apocalyptic fears.

But the true origin of this epic story lies not in the depths of space, but in the heart of ancient Mesopotamia. On clay tablets buried for millennia is the key: a single, powerful word, misinterpreted and twisted over time. It charts the journey of how a celestial crossing point known to Babylonian astronomers became a harbinger of doom.

Tracing its path from the libraries of Assyrian kings to the forums of the internet, this gripping investigation separates history from fantasy. It unravels the secrets of ancient sky-watchers and the psychology of modern belief. Ultimately, it reveals what our search for cosmic catastrophe tells us about our deepest anxieties and our place in the universe.
