The person could have made the simulation themselves and there are no sources showing that NASA actually did make it.

One hell of an unintentional marketing for Ubox though.

First off... Nibiru does not exist.

The guy that made this emailed me a month or so ago and said that he never imagined that his joke would become so popular.

Quote
I never expected this hoax I made to get so popular. I figure you\'ll get a kick out of it:

I asked if he'd add a link to Universe Sandbox in the description...

Quote
Because you asked nicely I added it to both. :)

Quote
...me and a friend bought it the day it came out and we thought
"hey, this software is new, we can really freak out some crazy people
and then (hopefully) bring them back into sanity!" The intention
wasn't really to scare gullible people who didn't already believe the
world was going to end. It did get a little out of hand, hah.

To maintain the mood I put this on the main video:

"NASA Engineers use Universe Sandbox | http://universesandbox.com/"

To be clear, although people at NASA do know about and have used Universe Sandbox (out of personal curiosity), they're not using it in any formal way for science or research.

His only other video reveals that his original video is a hoax:
2012 NASA Hoax

And in case anyone's still worried, don't be, there is no Planet X. Anything of the size claimed by the hoax would be detectable by amateur astronomers. If true, there would be no way this knowledge could be covered up. And to be extra clear, Nibiru does not exist.

although a brown dwarf in a circular orbit may exist somewhere past 15000 AU

While possible, there's also no reason to believe this to be true. And either way, something that far away would not pose any danger to us (especially later this year).

However, Gangnam Style has nothing to do with Universe Sandbox.

He means the most viewed video made of Universe Sandbox.

I think Darv was making a joke there.

i think he means that since, according to the uncertainty principle, that paired particles can spontaneously appear, the particles might appear only on one side of the brown dwarf through sheer luck and annihilate themselves next to brown dwarf, giving a push. since these quantum flunctuations are random, it's possible that a very large amount of these annihilations happen on one side of the dwarf and very quickly push it into the solar system.

(although the chance of this happening is 0)
