Evidence of a ninth planet at the edge of the solar system was announced three years ago.
Scientists say they have found even more evidence of a ninth planet lurking at the edge of the solar system—and that if it does exist, it will be found in the next 10 years.
In two papers, researchers led by Brown and Konstantin have put forward more evidence in support of a ninth planet. In one paper, published in The Astronomical Journal, they worked out whether the orbits of the Kuiper Belt Objects were actually just the result of how and where they were observed—known as bias. They they calculated the probability that the observed clustering was a fluke to be one in 500.
Fred Adams, Professor of Physics at the University of Michigan, added: “The strongest argument in favor of Planet Nine is that independent lines of evidence can all be explained by a proposed new planet with the same properties. In other words, there are multiple reasons to believe that Planet Nine is real, not just one.”
