The Question Box

The Montina Secreta. ..

Science Today had reported the discovery of a tenth planet.
The Hubal telescope had observed it in a distant orbit.
Many years ago, Doctor Yalda Fell predicted a near collision with Earth and Nabu.
Doctor Fell had named the tenth planet Nabu after a Sumerian myth.
But, her prediction was dismissed by the scientific community.
The planet's orbit was in balance with the solar system.
Or, so they thought.

Dr. Yalda Fell constructed a theory that Nabu would either strike Earth
or come close enough to cause cataclysmic earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.
Her only option now was to gather a small following of friends and believers for survival.
Yalda had wealthy friends, who financed the construction of a submarine Ark.
In this Ark would be preserved the seed of civilization and Dr. Fell's friends and families.
They hoped to weather the storm.

Reflections~To expect science to solve all our problems is becoming a religion.
