G'day Kevbro, and welcome to the BAUT Forum.

Has anybody or is there a know path of Planet X.

As others have pointed out, Planet X in the form of a planet causing regular disasters on Earth doesn't exist. Given the claims about Planet X (like its supposed 3600 year orbit) we can make calculations about where it should be. And the problem for people touting Planet X is that it's nowhere to be seen.

As we have known date and a orbital period could we extrapelate past visits and place the relative location to earth.
|
Yes we could. Another problem - there's no evidence of Planet X visiting in the past, either.

Would we expect different natural disasters if the 'ex' arrived whislt earth was out.
|
Pardon? You mean at another point in its orbit?

Or would the duration of the visit be across an entire earth orbit and we gonna get more of the same past events.
|
Oka-a-a-ay, I think I know what you mean, but the second part of your sentence doesn't follow from the first part. Anyway, people promoting Planet X disasters aren't really clear on the point. They just suggest that Planet X visits the inner part of the Solar System every 3600 years, causing disasters on Earth.

Can Planet EX be the cause for the extinction of the Dinosaur.
|
Not if it doesn't exist! Seriously, though, the cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs has been (to me knowledge) narrowed down to either a meteor impact (Google "Chicxulub crater"), massive volcanic eruptions in what's now India, or a combination of the two events.

Can the 3600year visits be identified in earth core samples? I would think evidence of massive natural disasters would be present on core samples around the world. And species of prehistoric animals have lived for millions of years with no problems.

You just hit the nail on the head. If Planet X was causing disasters every 3600 years, there would have been more than one million such disasters in the Earth's history. Instead, the fossil record shows there have been about five or six mass extinctions in the Earth's history, and 5 is a little less than 1,000,000. This alone suggests that these sorts of disasters don't happen every 3600 years.

I could hunt for answers but it better to ask.

Well, you've found a bunch of people who know a lot about how silly most of the Planet X claims are.
