Thanks, Brian, you actually got Dave to say something other than "do so,
did not, did too" and ADMIT that magnitude has a lot more definitions
than originally stated.

Well, whole spectrum was in fact stated, if you look at what WAS
stated. Perhaps not with those words, "whole spectrum", but how could
it be otherwise? Looking at ALL the Zetas said, not just a maximum of
three words at a time (Dave's usual chop and conquer method), here's
what was said, in 1995:
[Planet X[ is now visible to the human eye, though
only the educated eye would see it. At the current time
[Planet X] is approximately magnitude 2.0 in brightness,
and appears as large as a star as viewed by the naked eye.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
In other words, the public would not notice it and it is A PINPOINT in
size.
It does not shine with the intensity of most stars, but has a
dull, diffuse, glow. It appears to be the last gasp of a dying
star, a faint, blurry, reddish glow. Your eye would pass
over it if attuned to the pin points that are the stars. A
star is intense in the center and rapidly diminishes in
intensity toward the edges of the spot you call a star. The
light from a star comes from a single point and fans out,
the periphery a bit less than the center, increasingly, but
the center very intense. [Planet X], being nearer, is
giving you light rays from its entire surface, so the light
has an even quality to it.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
In other words, it is DIFFUSE, though small as a pinpoint, without the
intensity of light that comes from the center of what we term starlight,
and it's primary color is in the RED SPECTRUM.
Its distance cannot be measured, but one will notice that as
time passes, no other object passes before it. ... The amateur
astronomer may be disappointed until well after the
millennium, as [Planet X]'s motions across the skies are
only visible at this time when repeated images are taken
and compared by computer, and here the magnification
must be huge.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
In other words, it is coming DEAD ON and motion across the skies will
not be a clue at the present, 1995, time. The RATE of motion will change
after the millennium, which is in sync with the later coordinates given
by the Zetas. MAGNIFICATION, ie scope zoom as observatories are capable
of, is required and COMPUTER analyzed images are required to detect
motion. Not amateur stuff.
1. the composition is not the composition of reflecting
sunlight, but is almost exclusively in the spectrum you
would call red light. Thus you will do best if you filter
for red light, and by this we mean filtering out all but
red light.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
In other words, MAGNITUDE is NOT WHOLE SPECTRUM related. It's in the
red range, of which infrared is included.
2. though a large planet, 4 times as large as Earth and thus
larger than Mars or Pluto, it is at this time at a much
greater distance and thus its visibility is not equivalent to
Mars or Pluto.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
In other words, it is NOT VISIBLE as PLUTO is visible, due to size and
distance.
During the last few weeks, back yard astronomers will be
able to detect motion of the comet across the skies,
something a distant star would not do. ... It is when
the Earth receives red dust from the tail of the comet, as it
enters the Solar System and passes between the Sun and
the Earth, that denial will no longer be possible. At this
point, however, there are scant days before the cataclysms.
ZetaTalk, Comet Visible
(http://www.zetatalk.com/poleshft/p29.htm)
In other words, only in the LAST WEEKS will the back yard astronomer,
amateurs, be able to detect motion and the general public will be able
to be lied to until that time. Meaning that back yard astronomers,
amateurs, the public, CANNOT see it now!
