What inspired Sitchin's hypothesis of a planet beyond Neptune?

  • Personal fantasy

  • Scientific observation

  • Sumerian mythology

  • Comic books

Answer

Zecharia Sitchin's hypothesis of a planet beyond Neptune was inspired by Sumerian mythology. He believed that the Sumerians had knowledge of the planet, which they called Nibiru, and that it was the home of the Annunaki, a race of extraterrestrials who had visited Earth in the past. Sitchin's hypothesis has been criticized by scientists, who argue that there is no evidence to support it.
