<snip> Having been the son of the goddess Ninsun and the high priest of Uruk, Gilgamesh was considered not just a demigod but two thirds divine. This, he asserted, entitled him to avoid the death of a mortal. Yes, his mother told him - but to attain our longevity you have to go to our planet, Nibiru (where one year equals 3,600 Earth-years). So Gilgamesh journeyed from Sumer (now southern Iraq) to The Landing Place in the cedar mountains where the rocketships of the gods were lofted.
The Epic of Gilgamesh, a text found inscribed on clay tablets, actually describes how Gilgamesh witnessed a rocketship being launched from the Landing Place. A later Phoenician coin depicted such a rocket standing on a launching pad

Sitchin's translation of 'The Epic of Gilgamesh' continues on, after Enkidu's death, to the sacred place of Tilmun where he meets up with Utnapishtim (the 'Noah' of biblical Deluge fame) in his search for the immortality of the gods to which he feels entitled.
