Portalbangkabelitung.com – In research to hunt planet The hypothesized ninth orbits our Sun all the way to the periphery Solar system, astronomers have discovered several never-before-seen objects beyond the orbit of Neptune.
The fact that these objects orbit the Sun from afar in the periphery Solar system makes Planet Nine’s existence even more likely, the researchers suggest, and say this new find could actually be the key to finding it.
“Although we believe there are thousands of these tiny objects, we haven’t found many of them yet, because they are very far away,” said astronomer Scott Sheppard of C.arnegie Institution for Science.

“Smaller things can get us to planet much bigger ones that we think are out there. The more we discover, the better we can understand what’s going on outside Solar system.”
If you need a little refreshment for Planet Nine, last January, astronomer Mike “Pluto killer“Brown from California Institute of Technology (Caltech) announced that it and his colleagues had found evidence of a large cosmic object lurking on the edge. Solar system, just past Neptune.
Dubbed Planet Nine, it appears to circle the Sun in a super-elongated orbit that takes 10,000 to 20,000 years to complete, and could explain why the whole Solar system we tilt.

This is still planet It’s hypothetical at this stage, but evidence suggests it’s about 10 times as massive as Earth and four times the size, and researchers say we may have missed it this long because of how far it is – about 149 billion km from the Sun, or 75 times further than Pluto.
