Magnitude 2 when the total red spectrum is taken into consideration,
including INFRA-RED, which the IRAS team needed to spot it in 1983, else
THEY could not see it either. To repeat the viewing specs last stated
on Monday, August 13th in Article <3B78528C.3AEA19C7@zetatalk.com>.
MAGNITUDE
Although [Planet X] at present is a magnitude 2.0,
[when infra-red is taken into consideration]
astronomers should include objects up to a magnitude 10
in their image capture.
Rogue Planet TOPIC
The operator described the object as diffuse and of approximate
magnitude 11.

It's reflecting, my understanding, 81 times LESS sunlight than Plute.
Essentially, no reflection. To repeat the viewing specs last stated on
Monday, August 13th in Article <3B78528C.3AEA19C7@zetatalk.com>.
Pluto is reflecting sunlight, and Planet X at this time is NOT,
but does have a dull redish glow as it is a smoldering brown dwarf.
This is what we're looking for, appearance and size wise, etc.
- Search for an object down to Magnitude 11
- Size in scope is 2-3 times that of Pluto
- Is not yet reflecting sunlight (81 times less than Pluto)
- Has a diffuse glow as is a slow-smolder brown dwarf
- Has a redish color, so filter for red for best results
- Brightness increase detectable not until late 2001 (by computer)
- Coordinates per Zetas as ephemeris will not describe path
- Distance is approximately 9 Sun-Pluto distances away
- Retrograde motion now and dropping below ecliptic
- Rapid passage in 2003
REFLECTED SUNLIGHT
As [Planet X] is too far away for reflected sunlight up until 6
months before passage.

DISTANCE
[Planet X] is circling on a long elliptical orbit around
the sun and its dead companion which lies at a distance some
18.724 times the length from the sun to Pluto. It is not a long
distance to be traveled in 3,657 years, especially considering
that it transverses the solar system in 3 short months! Clearly,
the uptick in speed is considerable, and the rate of speed as it
floats from one binary sun to the other is sedate in comparison.
Thus, when the passage is due in 2003, there is an exponential
increase in speed during the last years, and this speeding up
has already started. To compute the distance from the solar
system on any given date, create an exponential equation which
takes into consideration the total distance we have given for the
sun's dead companion, the years [Planet X] takes to make
a complete ellipse (3,657), and the approximate May 15, 2003
date of the next passage. The distance will differ greatly, thus,
depending upon the date.
