Are people gonna link this to Nibiru??
It is a name that a few astronomers gave to a planet they think could be there.
It does not mean there is one in reality. And current data does not show any evidence of such a planet.
This planet is in no way related to 2012 and Nibiru. It would be at 1,500 light years and stays there that far. It never enters the solar system and has an expected orbit of 1.8 million years for one rotation.
I read the articles on NASA on tyche, it seems like they are revising the Nemesis theory, but the articles seem like they want to make the discovery and that they would be excited if they did. They mention no threat issues.
if it does exist, would it pose any threat to us anytime soon?
NASA is not revising Nemesis theroy.
It is just a few astronomers that are searching for a potential planet that might be out there.
They use the NEOWISE data since that data is currently the most accurate and sensitive data NASA of the complete sky.
if it does exist, would it pose any threat to us anytime soon?
NO. Any planet out there that would pose a danger claimed in the 2012 hoax should now be 7.5 AU from the Sun.
This Tyche does not Fit any 2012 theory at all.
As an extension to obaeyens post, did Pluto post a threat to the thousands of generations of humans who didn't know of it's existence before it's discovery? What about Neptune and Uranus? Did they suddenly become threatening only after their discoveries?
If there were a threat here, we'd likely already know of it, and would have for a while. Even the hypothetical ideas that have come along with it, that it might be the cause for chucking comets and asteroids closer towards the Sun and in turn us, have been around in theory for decades.
Whats almost hilarious to me is that should anything be found, countless scientists would be all over it, NASA included. To think it's being covered up or admitted to is, as usual with proponents' claims, absurd. I look forward to what comes of the data.
i guess its something exciting then for the scientific community if they do conclude something in their analysis of the data in april 2012
They already did.

These links are not very reliable, just conspiracy theorists and fools. Phil Plait, Ph.D., posted about this planet that perhaps is not real:
I am actually wondering if an orbit at 15,000 AU is stable for a big object especially bigger than Jupiter.
The gravitational forces is so low that it could get easily pulled by a nearby star.
I am also wondering if an object the size of Jupiter or even bigger could form that far from the sun. I think that any starting shape would be ripped apart again by passing bye objects that collides.
What could be possible is a rubble pile of loosely coupled objects that in mass acts as a huge mass.
But then again, the data the 2 astronomers have is so low in sample rate that it can be easily just random noise.
One thing is 100% sure, this is not related to 2012.
