Does this seem possible?  Apparently there are new theories that we may have had another planet in our solar system that got kicked out by Jupiter?

Researchers from Canada have used computer models to show that our Solar System could have had an extra gas giant planet in the mix around 4 billion years ago – until Jupiter booted it out, that is.

The idea that there were originally five gas giants – in addition to Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune – was first proposed back in 2011, to help explain why the Solar System currently looks the way it does. As it turns out, the orbit of Mars and Earth don’t really make sense if there were only ever the planets we have today.

Let’s find out a bit more on how they came to this conclusion on page 2
