New Evidence Emerges For Mysterious Planet Y In The Outer Reaches Of The Solar System

In the vast expanse of the solar system, astronomers have long been searching for a hidden world, a mysterious planet that could be lurking in the shadows. According to a recent report, new evidence has emerged, suggesting the existence of an unseen planet, dubbed "Planet Y." This alleged planet's presence is inferred by the tilted orbits of distant Kuiper Belt objects, a vast ring of icy bodies beyond Neptune. Researchers have been fascinated by the Kuiper Belt for years, and their attention has been focused on uncovering the secrets of this enigmatic region.

The existence of Planet Y is not directly revealed, but its presence is hinted at by the sudden inclinations in the orbits of 50 distant objects. Amir Siraj, an astrophysicist and doctoral candidate at Princeton University, provides insight into the phenomenon. He suggests that the presence of an unseen planet, likely smaller than Earth and larger than Mercury, could be responsible for the disturbances in the orbits of these objects.

Siraj clarifies that this paper does not confirm the discovery of a planet but rather presents a puzzle, for which a planet is a plausible solution. Historically, Pluto was initially considered a potential candidate for Planet X when it was discovered in 1930.

Astronomers have found new evidence, revealing the existence of an unseen and mysterious planet that could be hidden in the solar system.
