Astronomer Insists There is a Planet X Four Times the Size of Earth Lurking at the Edge of Our Solar System

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Distortion to orbits of asteroids beyond Pluto imply mystery planet is tugging at them, claims astronomer The evidence for ‘Planet X’ – the mysterious hypothesised planet on the edge of our solar system – has taken a new turn thanks to the mathematics of a noted astronomer. Rodney Gomes, an astronomer at the National Observatory of Brazil in Rio de Janeiro, says the irregular orbits of small icy bodies beyond Neptune imply that a planet four times the size of Earth is swirling around our sun in the fringes of the solar system. Planet X – perhaps mis-named now that Pluto has been demoted to a dwarf planet – has been widely hypothesised for decade, but has never been proven. 

The hypothetical planet – four times the size of Earth – will float beyond Neptune and Pluto and cause disturbances in the Kuiper belt of asteroids 
Gomes measured the orbits of 92 Kuiper belt objects – small bodies and dwarf planets – and said that six objects appeared to be tugged off-course compared to their expected orbits.

He told astronomers at the American Astronomical Society  that the most likely reason for the irregular orbits was a ‘planetary-mass solar companion’ – a distant body of planet size that is powerful enough to move the Kuiper belt objects.

He suggested the planet would be four times bigger than Earth – around the size of Nepture and would be 140 billion miles from the sun, or about 1,500 times further than the Earth.

      “imply that a planet four times the size of Earth is swirling around our sun in the fringes of the solar system”.

      See, you are completely WRONG.

      It’s hiding right behind the Sun, peeking out every so often for some nutjob with shaky digital camera to ‘capture video evidence of Planet X”. So, CLEARLY, it can’t be STILL at the fringes of out solar system, what, 31 years after it’s initial “discovery”…… Get with the program, Man!!!!! :mrgreen:

        You’re way off, Central Scrutinizer, the Annunaki lizard people, on Nibiru, know when we try to look for them and zap back behind the Sun. All the while laughing at us.

        What i do is sneak outside with my welding helmet held lowdown at my side and quickly whip it up and catch them by surprise. You’ve got to be quick but if you’re lucky you’ll clearly see, in your minds eye, where Nibiru used to be.

        You just don’t want to see it, don’t you?

          … do you?
