Evidence context

How this source is used

Evidence roles describe what this source helps establish inside each Investigation. They are local to that use, not permanent labels attached to the publication itself.

Investigation

Are NASA and astronomers hiding an approaching planet?

Contextualizes

The 2025 IRAS/AKARI search publicly documented 13 candidate source pairs and one promising unconfirmed distant detection, while explicitly stating that a full orbit cannot be inferred from two survey epochs. This is evidence of open candidate reporting and uncertainty, not proof against every imaginable secret record.

Investigation

Is Nibiru a real planet that repeatedly enters the inner Solar System?

Qualifies

Phan et al. compared IRAS and AKARI catalogs separated by 23 years, narrowing 13 candidate source pairs to one promising but unconfirmed slow-moving infrared pair. The 500–700 AU and 7–17 Earth-mass ranges were model-based search assumptions; two epochs cannot determine a Keplerian orbit. The report is genuine candidate evidence for a remote object, not confirmation of Nibiru or inner-planet crossings.
