Astronomers propose a new hypothetical planet, Planet Y, beyond Neptune, based on observed orbital anomalies in the Kuiper ...
A new study suggests the existence of Planet Y. This hidden planet may be affecting the Kuiper Belt. The gravity of Planet Y could be causing a tilt in the orbits of some icy objects. Researchers ...
New discoveries of objects in the Kuiper Belt have also presented challenges for the Planet Nine theory. The latest is known ...
For years, astronomers have searched the outer reaches of our solar system for Planet 9, a theoretical planet that could ...
Astronomers have picked up evidence of an Earth-sized world, distinct from the previously hypothesised Planet Nine and Planet ...
A study suggests an Earth-sized planet, dubbed Planet Y, may exist beyond Neptune, affecting the orbits of icy objects in the ...
Astronomers have a potential Planet Nine candidate, detected via infrared radiation. This candidate's orbit is very different from what's predicted for Planet Nine. The candidate may be a false ...
Another mystery is how Planet Nine, if it is real, ended up on an orbit that potentially brings it as close as 280 AU and as distant as 1,120 AU, which is far beyond the realm of the other planets.
A team led by Amos Chen from the National Tsing Hua University, is searching for Planet Nine’s heat signature. When you double the distance from the sun, reflected light becomes 16 times fainter. This ...
If Planet 9 is real, this observatory has around a 70 to 80 percent chance of finding it, he estimates, adding that it's not a sure thing because there are so many uncertainties.
A newly discovered dwarf planet called 'Ammonite' (2023 KQ14) has been spotted in the outer solar system, and it could be another nail in the coffin for the Planet Nine hypothesis.
