Why Elenin IS NOT a brown dwarf 4x the mass of Jupiter.
Brown dwarfs typically have an albedo between .3 and .6.

Jupiter has an albedo of about .4.

The Moon has an albedo of around .12 depending on it's phase.

The SMALLER the number the darker the object is.

At .12 the Moon reflects 12 percent of the sunlight that hits it. The only darker planet/moon in the Solar system is Mercury at .11.

Jupiter reflects about 40 percent of the sunlight it receives.

Elenin is NOW closer to Earth than Jupiter is.

If Elenin was a brown dwarf with 4x Jupiter's mass, at this point it would be BRIGHTER than Jupiter.

At this point Elenin is not even visible to the naked eye.

This is because...

it's a friggen comet that's about 4 kilometers in diameter.

So...

when it comes to pass that this event will amount to nothing noteworthy...

I expect a HUGE apology from the Elenin tards!

Of course we won't get it...

they'll just start up some new BS of some kind.

Well he does have a point now, and besides no the gravitational pull of some of the other planets would be fucked up. So I don't know what to tell you

"Luminosity: Main sequence stars cool, but eventually reach a minimum luminosity which they can sustain through steady fusion. This varies from star to star, but is generally at least 0.01% the luminosity of our Sun. Brown dwarfs cool and darken steadily over their lifetimes: sufficiently old brown dwarfs will be too faint to be detectable."

Yes it would. A brown dwarf 4x the mass of jupiter, would have such a massive gravitational force, that the solar system would be completely thrown out of balance. And since it's close to us then jupiter, and nothing has happened orbit wise, then we know it isn't even close to the size of jupiter, let alone larger.

Re: Why Elenin IS NOT a brown dwarf 4x the mass of Jupiter.
Personally, I do not think Elenin is a brown dwarf. I believe that Elenin represents the debris field and the planetary system OF the brown dwarf, which is already here now.

Here's a couple pics, courtesy of the Neumayer scientists in Antarctica:

Neumayer with moon overhead:
[link to tinypic.com]

Neumayer, 3 hours later, brown dwarf overhead:
[link to tinypic.com]

There's your brown dwarf. And look how BIG it is. The Moon and the Sun are the same size in the sky from our perspective here on Earth. That object in the second pic is BIGGER (from our perspective) than either the Moon or the Sun, which means...it's getting close.

Of course, if it WERE close, then you'd expect to see:

* More volcanic eruptions
* More quakes and bigger quakes
* More landslides
* More 'rogue waves'
* Strange weather
* Animal die-offs (brown dwarves are powerful x-ray sources)
* More building collapses (tidal force)
* More sinkholes
* More lithospheric disruptions (tears in the Earth)

Well, gee, we ARE experiencing a lot more of all of that. I wonder why. Actually, no, I don't. I know why.
