WHAT IS THE 'NIBIRU' CONSPIRACY THEORY?
Nibiru, sometimes referred to as Planet X, is a hypothesised planet on the edge of our solar system.
Nibiru is a different planet to the Planet Nine, which is also sometimes referred to as Planet X, that was proposed by astronomers in Caltech in January last year.
Conspiracy theorists believe the gravitational influence of the 'rogue planet' Nibiru disrupted the orbits of other planets hundreds of years ago.
They claim the next disruptive passage into the inner solar system could happen at any time.
Some claim that this 'planet' is sending 'plasmatic energy particles' through our solar system.

The flow of energy will disrupt the 'core flows' of the Earth and trigger catastrophic changes in Earth's climate.
They claim, since 1996, we have already been feeling the disruptive effects of the inbound rogue Planet X.
Conspiracy theorists often blame natural disasters and freak weather patterns on the planet.
'Nibiru and other stories about wayward planets are an internet hoax,' NASA has said. 'Obviously, it does not exist.'
