This is an Akkadian term, translating to .“crossing” or “point of transaction” Nibiru is described more closely on a complete cuneiform tablet: “Nibiru, which is said to have occupied the passageways of heaven and earth, because everyone above and below asks Nibiru if they cannot find the passage. Nibiru is Marduk’s star which the gods in heaven caused to be visible. Nibiru stands as a post at (the turning point. The others say of Nibiru the post: “The one who crosses the middle of the sea (Tiamat without calm, may his name be Nibiru, for he takes up the center of it”. The path of the stars of the sky “.should be kept unchanged --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Miniaturization of a 2D settlement ,In the end, it seems to me, neither Wright nor Soleri has produced structures that are, in any normal sense” sympathetic or proper to the desert.” Peter Reyner Banham Iranian – Islamic tradition for shaping cities in the desert consists of a Bazaar as the backbone of the whole city, besides public spaces like Mosques, Palaces and Plazas alongside the Bazaar. These large-scale spaces are floating in an ocean of low-rise small houses with some perfect-shaped courtyards and wind-catchers here and there. Converting this 2D structure into a 3D skyscraper saves the organization of the space, but ,not the shapes. Bazaar will be a chain of spherical spaces which swirls around the mass all along the height while public spaces are still larger spheres close to this chain. Houses will fill the volume and small holes in .the skin moderate the radiation, temperature and humidity, just like 2D courtyards --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Geltaftan: Ceramic layering .In 1984, Nader Khalili, proposed Geltaftan as an inventory method of construction on the moon to NASA Gel” means clay and “Taftan” means burning. Based on his method we can melt and fuse desert soil on top” of dunes into a ceramic layer. The soil beneath the structure can be hollowed and this skin provides a controlled atmosphere for living. Structurally reinforced layers can be built on top of each other through time to .raise a skyscraper --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Magnifying Sustainable Traditions Centuries of living in arid climate has taught local habitants valuable lessons about sustainability. Considering the amount of the deserts in the world and comparing the distribution of the deserts to the distribution of the population shows the importance of making deserts habitable. One of the most important climatic parameters for desert houses is wind. Persians have developed a mechanism to convert hot wind of desert carrying sands into a humid soft breeze for inside of their houses. Wind-catcher is a tower which takes the desert .wind, directs it into the basement to take its sands and moisten it, then blows the breeze into internal space This mechanism can work in an urban scale while we already have all we need: a high-rise tower, some underground levels for moderating the wind, and a semi-closed internal space. Furthermore, there is an alteration of wind-catcher which works vice versa; the wind that blows through a hole produces a negative pressure and intakes the breeze. The hole at the upper part of our structure will provide a strong suction force to enforce .this ventilation system. A traditional passive system which is totally sustainable, grows into an urban sca
