Scholars Believe A Blue Asteroid Named 3200

Phaethon Could Be A Moon Mentioned in An Ancient

Religious Document

In October 1983 during an observation data sweep looking for moving celestial bodies using the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) by astronomers launched from Vandenburg Air Force Base near Lompoc, California an unexpected object was noticed crossing the sky in an erratic behavior. After several months of observation, the body, once thought to be the remains of a comet, is now believed to be an asteroid with a noticeable quality rarely seen in the solar system - the asteroid was seen to be blue. But the blue rock - measuring some 3.9 miles across - may have been discovered and written of centuries ago when ancient peoples of the Caspian Sea region saw a 'blue moon' hanging over their and cities in ancient prehistory as it passed through the system. The asteroid also sends blue cosmic debris though the Earth's atmosphere during the Geminid meteor shower, one of the few know that does like cometary debris. 3200 Phaethon also has a remarkable path around the solar system, that also crosses the orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars in its high orbital eccentricity. The moon also approaches the Sun closer than any celestial body - its perihelion is only half the orbital distance of Mercury from the Sun at the nearest passing. Some estimate the surface temperature could be near 1,400 degrees F. But scholars believe 3200 Phaethon many centuries ago could have known by what it was called some 130,000 years ago, according to an ancient religious text called the Nurubi Fragments. The clay tablet fragments, having been discovered in Kouyunjik near ancient Nineveh by an archaeological expedition led by Austen Henry Layard in 1852, had been transported to England after their discovery and stored in unattended vaults of the British Museum's Middle Eastern Collection, London. Recently the records were evaluated by the Board of Antiquities in London, as the ancient clay tablets were restored so archaeologists could evaluate their content. The translation language was found to be a primitive form of Akkadian. In the "Gospels of Izal" as some theologians have labeled the Nurubi Fragments, there appears to have been a time when the blue moon called "Yith" approached the Earth over the Caspian Sea region. This "blue moon" recorded as being responsible for the decline of one of the largest religious cities of the Corean civilization, bringing an end to the Caspian Sea's first great civilization. A special antiquities report was written by Professor Hassan Samedova of Isakhan University in Baku, Azerbaijani providing an interesting theory on the two discoveries mentioned some 130,000 years apart. The "Book of Gates" was also mentioned in the report, also having been originated during the same Eemian period, which an 19th century Oxford Professor named Jebidiah Smith, having wrote a large commentary on the documents, called " A Commentary on the Book of Gates" published by Oxford Press in 1868 (First Edition) mentions the blue Yith moon as "the first of Earth's moons and favored of the First Gods". He stated the moon was held with some religious adoration. STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is the third mission in NASA's Solar Terrestrial Probes program (STP). The mission, launched in October 2006, has provided a unique and revolutionary view of the Sun-Earth System. In 2016 the spacecraft's SECCHI component discovered an unknown blue object orbiting the sun at an erratic angle. In 2016, NASA's SECCHI spacecraft, studying the surface of the sun, photographed a mysterious blue sphere crossing the path of the Sun as it traveled in an elliptical orbit. The unknown celestial body, once thought to have been a photographic anomaly in the digital processing of the image, was found to be a large planetoid showing an unmistakable bluish color as it passed through space. While speculation that the object could have been a rouge planet or even the hypothetical lost planet "Vulcan" that was once thought to exist due to gravitational anomalies to Mercury's orbit during the 19th century, the blue object, in light of the near approach of 3200 Phaethon to the Sun, could be the elusive asteroid. The Japanese space agency JAXA is developing the DESTINY+ spacecraft mission that is planned to fly by 3200 Phaethon and study the body close up, as well as imaging the minor bodies that originate from it. The spacecraft will be launched in 2022 and arrive in 2025. 3200 Phaethon during transits comes dangerously close to the Earth, and scientists remark it is possible to have been seen by the naked eye as it passed within thousands of miles over the ancient Caspian Sea, when the Nurubi Fragments were written.

THE BOOK OF GATES MYSTERY-A FACT OR FICTION?

Since the first publication of Jebidiah Smith's work 'A Commentary on the Book of Gates' in 1868, the reality of the Book of Gates has been questioned. Some leading universities and museums have long thought the infamous 19th century Oxford professor and occultist's writings psuedoarchaeology, while others have considered his abridgment of the Book of Gates as significant as the Rosetta Stone translating of that day's ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Demotic and Greek script. The possibility that they chronicle the record of the first Archean continent Yidath where all of Earth's life originated has been met with criticism - additionally academic scholars doubts have been justified by the history that fringe archaeology was very prominent in conjunction with the period's discovery of 'ancient religious records'. Arran Ellingsworth, Highmore's Head Conservator and expert in ancient manuscripts, who is supervising the authentication effort, has reported the intense forensics have revealed the book is what it appears to be - an ancient Caspian gospel. The pages of ancient characters reveal the "truth" of the First Gods, the First Men, and what is referred to as the Children of Yidath - the ancestors of modern animals. Notably, they contain the great ages of history of that first continent. Having been written during the Eemian by the Prophet Izal, before the fall of the Corean culture, the books were scattered over the Caspian region by survivors, where they have been recorded to appear throughout history in Sumer, Egypt, and Babylon and unto the modern day. Recently, Cambridge University is known to have procured their Book of Gates in 1288 by the Bishop of Ely, Hugh Balsham when he founded the Peterhouse. The book is now being examined by theologists in the laboratory of the Highmore Rare Book and Manuscript Library, England.
