Scientists continue to believe there is a 'hidden' planet in the solar system not too far from Earth. We've just not been able to find it yet.

But that might happen sooner than some think, with experts in the field of astronomy reckoning they have found out the best way to finally catch a glimpse of it.

It's an idea that has been proposed for a number of years, with a belief the planet is a gas or ice giant that orbits the Sun billions of miles further out than the rest of the planets.

In 2025, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory will finally open its doors to take stunning images of the universe around us.

And through the observatory, we may finally discover Planet Nine, which experts believe to be around seven times as big as Earth.

Speaking to Live Science , Mike Brown, an astronomer at Caltech who proposed the Planet Nine hypothesis, revealed how the Vera C. Rubin Observatory could be the key to discovery.

Located in Chile and costing $473 million (£374 million), it is home to the largest digital camera ever made by humanity

Channelling its inner James Webb Space Telescope , it will take pictures of the cosmos from millions and billions of miles away from Earth, allowing us to look further than ever before from our planet.
