Meganecro Star?

 

It seems that Saturn's behavior is showing evidence for the mysterious planet:

I think the name has to allude to the mysterious nature of this beast, that it could have eluded detection for so long.

Something like Yeti or Bigfoot. Planet Loch Ness.

Or better yet... Planet Chupacabra!

 

How about "Jay", the imaginary planet.

 

I think "Necro-Star" would sound much better

Ludwig Von Drake of course..
He was Donalds uncle and scientist..

I think he goes by audioguru these days.

Oh yeah! audioguru is Scrooge McDuck.

 

Quetzalcoatl

 

Maybe we will send avatars there to mine "unobtanium".

 

Quetzalcoatl

ahhh... the feathered serpent... the one who came from the other side of the sea...

 

"Q will eat you if you are not good", said the mother to the child.

 

They won't actually find it. It's cloaked.

Because it's the "Death Star" may the force be with us all.

It looks like planet nine has had a much more active participation in our solar system than previously thought:

And now, an update. Apparently, planet nine has an observable effect on the behavior of the entire solar system!:

"Because Planet Nine is so massive and has an orbit tilted compared to the other planets, the Solar System has no choice but to slowly twist out of alignment," said lead author Elizabeth Bailey in a statement.

The first paper, available online and submitted to the Astrophysical Journal, focuses on the angular momentum contribution of the potential planet on the spin of our star. Planet Nine is believed to arrive as close as 200 AU and as distant as 1,200 AU, with 1 AU (astronomical unit) being the Earth-Sun distance.

Having an object at least 10 times the mass of Earth, on such a wide orbit, and with an expected inclination of 30 degrees will generate a wobble in the Sun. And according to the calculations, it can explain the observed tilt.

As the fictional Dr House would've said: "Even planets lie"

That's science, fits and starts. None of this "the science is settled" crap.

Science will never be settled. But it can only grow within solid foundations. That's what I find beautiful about it.

 

The evidence for this elusive object keeps mounting up:

Yebut KBOs (reckoned or otherwise) aren't near as 'fun' as PX!
