New data analysis uncovers evidence of a unknown planet hiding at...

Astronomers have found new evidence that a mysterious ninth planet may be hiding at the edge of the solar system - rewriting what we know about the cosmos again. An international team from Taiwan, Japan, and Australia used 40 years' worth of data from two space probes to track down what they believe are signs of this distant planet moving around our sun. Planet Nine (or Planet X as NASA calls it) first emerged as a real possibility in 2016, when…

Astronomers believed a mysterious ninth planet was lurking at the edge of our solar system. And they've discovered potential evidence of its existence. What if a ninth planet was hiding tens of billions of kilometers from our sun? A team of astronomers recently announced they've discovered a potential candidate for the title of the solar system's ninth planet. However, the scientific community remains skeptical.

There's a ninth planet beyond Neptune, and a team of researchers may have discovered it now.

For years, astronomers have been tracking an elusive shadow at the ends of our solar system: a ninth planet, giant and glacial, that would explain the strange orbits of some transneptunian objects. This hypothetical "Planet Nine" remains invisible to this day... but an intriguing signal captured in ancient satellite data could revive the hunt. A team [...]

Is Planet 9 Hiding in the Shadows? New Signals Revive the Search for a Ghostly World

A gravitational mystery at the doors of the solar system It all started in 2016, when two Caltech astrophysicists, Mike Brown and Konstantin Batygin, note a disturbing phenomenon: several icy bodies of the Kuiper belt-an area beyond Neptune-seem to be improbably aligned. A bit as if something, massive and invisible, disrupted their trajectory. Their conclusion: an unknown planet, between five and ten times more massive than the earth, could hide…
