Planet X: Distance/Speed REVISITED #1

Per Open Minded's note that today's Live ZetaTalk Chat will be about
this topic, here's the background on the Distance/Speed issue. Will take
a couple of posts to cover.

The ZetaTalk on Planet X distance from Earth, with diagram, written in
October, 1999 and Jan, 2000, explains that it dallies at the mid-point
between its two foci, the Sun and its dead twin some 18.74 Sun-Pluto
distances away. Here the Zetas state an "exponential increase" in speed
from the essential mid-point in the Year 2000 until passage in 2003.  

    Dirty snowballs are held at a distance by the solar 
    wind alone, not the repulsion force, ... Their speed,
    thus, barely increases during the course of their 
    passage. [Planet X], on the other hand, heads 
    straight toward the sun, deflected not at all by the 
    solar wind, and avoids a collision with the sun and 
    the other planets only due to the repulsion force 
    incited by its approach. Thus, its speed increases 
    as it is essentially plummeting into the sun! ... At 
    the turn of the millennium [Planet X] is still close 
    to the mid-point between the two foci, as 
    astonishing as this may seem. It spends the vast 
    majority of its time in an essential dither these two
    massive suns, picking up speed as it approaches, 
    inbound, then zooming through, turning around 
    after coming to a standstill after having overshot 
    the solar system, then shooting through again and 
    returning to the essential dither point between the 
    its two foci. ... 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.
