Does anyone about some hard evidence that tells us we will be entering a photon belt any time soon?

http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/GLAST/news/new-structure.html

We know the existence of these phenomenon but I couldn't find any disclosed information about the location of these belts other than they span the sky from the constellation Virgo to the constellation Grus. Now there are bunch of sources that claim we will be in contact with one in 2012 but I couldn't find any solid proof of this.

My quest started with this video



What interested me the most is that her body language tells us that she isn't lying but "remembering" while she tells her story.

A "photon belt" is not a real thing. It's just New Age nonsense. The NASA link you posted has nothing to do with photons, and I don't care to watch a 10 minute video. She's probably not even really a princess.

this^^

Photons could only orbit an object right outside its Schwarzschild radius. If your passing that close an astrological body's Schwarzschild radius, you got a lot bigger problems than some photons hanging around....
