An Extra Planet In Our Solar System A Long Time Ago…Wait What?

 

Apparently there is a theory that we had a large planet in our solar system billions of years ago.  Where did it go and how did they come to this conclusion?

This is the theory proposed by David Nesvorny from the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado, in The Astronomical Journal, and reported by Science Magazine and New Scientist. He first proposed his theory back in 2011, but has since revised it based on new data.

The key piece of evidence comes from a cluster of about 25,000 icy rocks called the “kernel” that reside in the Kuiper Belt, the region at the edge of the Solar System. While most of the trillion or so objects in the Kuiper Belt are scattered around the Solar System, the kernel orbits in the same plane as the planets. Until now, no one really knew why.

This is fascinating let’s find out more and check out the video on page 2

    Actually there are two planets that aren’t there anymore the astroid belt is what’s left of one and the other is the kuiper belt! True fact

    Lol you believe them shout something that happened 4.5 billion year but won’t something that happened 2,000 year ago. Fact is fact. Lol

    That may be true but something is still pulling neptune and affecting other objects to this fay suggesting something or plural somethings are still lurking. Alot thinks its niburu

    This seems to support some aspects of the theoretical prediction of a gas giant Tyche proposed over 25 years ago. It’s existence was ruled out in 2014 after $#%&!@*ysis of NASA’s WISE data, though.

    Maldek was the bigger earth like planet that was destroyed and the remains are the asterisk belt and the rest became Earth. The other one is Nibiru. Home of the Anunnaki .

    Hello ….they don’t tell you everything… Just imagine how big the Universe is… Obviosly there are more planets, they just don’t mention it… There’s more than you think!!!

    You my sir are the man. Have you done research on how back then Earth was considered a mutation planet to test different hybrid species and do genetic testing? Such an interesting read.

  8. John Riepel said:

    I have read a little on that theory and it makes perfect sense. Need to read more on it though but it connects with so much.

    Nibiru the home of the Annunaki. Its on a bigger axis of orbit around the sun and only comes close every 100,000 years or something like that #facts
    The truth will be revealed in our lifetime

    Between Mars and Jupiter was a planet but it must’ve met a catastrophic ending. That’s why there is a asteroid belt there and the one side of Mars is riddled with craters.

  11. Andrew Hill said:

    Actually it’s thought that Jupiter’s gravity prevented a planet from forming. The craters are because of asteroids going stray from time to time.

  12. Shi 'ar said:

    Its possible, but Jupiter has moons from its own gravity. The asteroid belt seem to be just out there orbiting on its own… and ur right it is possible that stray asteroids may have hit Mars coming from the direction of the belt

    No technology exists to see these alleged objects she said ; yet another group is saying they can see the center of our galaxy, we send probes to our closest planets and find we have there size wrong and there atmosphere wrong. others say they have found earth like planets with oxygen atmosphere with water millions of light years away yet we can’t see these? We have no clue what gravity even is; but not safe to read books under an apple tree. Nice to think of these things though.
