Planet X: a RED Planet
The Coordinates given by the Zetas are intended to be global, and the
predominant red light emitted by Planet X is notable for being bent by
gravity. Thus, whether the viewer is looking overhead, or at the
horizon, or must look past the equator, are factors to be considered.
Red light, and light close in the spectrum to red light, bends
more readily than other particles in the light group. This can
quickly be determined by the common man if he compares
the rising and setting sun to other objects he sees in the sky.
The rising and setting sun are huge, compared to their
appearance at mid-day. This is due to the light rays which
have been bent and would otherwise escape to the side,
being bent back by the atmosphere so they enter the viewers
eye as though coming from a large orange sun. ... The angle
between the viewer and the Sun at dawn and dusk are such
that more atmosphere is passed through, thus more of
bending of the red spectrum rays is done.

If the viewer is also looking over the Equator during this
sighting, the viewer is capturing light that must pass over
the Equator, and thus the bending ... the red light coming
from a horizon, has more time to be drawn toward the Earth
by gravity pull. ... In giving Global Coordinates, we
consider all parts of the globe, giving coordinates that will
put Planet X within the scope, thus almost all viewers find
some offset.

Magnitude (absolute, heliocentric, or apparent) has not proven to be a
good basis of describing the brightness to expect when looking for
Planet X. This is affected in the past by the size of the object (tiny
as Pluto), light spectrum (primarily infrared), reflected sunlight (not
as our other planets), and recording equipment (eye vs CCD camera).
Where Mag 2 to the Zetas, it was described during 2001 viewing at
observatories as Mag 11 and when imaged in 2002 by infrared equipment as
approximately Mag 20, comparible to the small stars nearby. Thus, size
and diffuse/red appearance are deemed the better guide for viewing.
We, the Zetas, with our equipment, see Planet X from
Earth in accordance with your math for a Magnitude 2.0.

[Planet X] is too far away for reflected sunlight up until 6
months before passage.
