Although scientists William Herschel and Max Planck never met, mainly because they were born 2 centuries apart, they will head into space together, in name, anyway, on May 14. Their space-bound namesakes are space-based observatories, both of which could be capable of finding Planet X if they know where to look.

Two missions to study the cosmos, Herschel and Planck, are scheduled to blast into space May 14 aboard the same Ariane 5 rocket from the Guiana Space Center in French Guiana. The European Space Agency, or ESA, leads both missions, with significant participation from NASA.

“The missions are quite different, but they’ll hitch a ride to space together,” said Ulf Israelsson, NASA project manager for both Herschel and Planck. “Launch processing is moving along smoothly. Both missions’ instruments have completed their final checkouts, and the spacecrafts’ thruster tanks have been fueled.”

The Herschel observatory has the unique ability to peek into the dustiest and earliest stages of planet, star and galaxy growth.

Planck has a different goal. It will answer fundamental questions about how the universe came to be, and how it will change in the future. It will look back in time just 400,000 years after our universe exploded into existence nearly 14 billion years ago in an event known as the Big Bang.

This should be a big help to Planet X researchers. Remote viewers who have viewed what we believe to be Planet X speak of an occluding cloud surrounding a developing mini-solar system. That would make it of prime interest to both observatories.

Keep watching this blog. I will post the follow-up information as soon as I receive it.
