There is growing evidence that another unknown planet may be lurking in the farthest reaches of our solar system. Scientists have been speculating about the existence of a hypothetical "Planet X" for years, and new research seems to confirm its presence.
It all started in 2016, when astronomers Mike Brown and Konstantin Batygin published the first evidence of the existence of this mysterious planet. Since then, they and their colleagues have been intensively searching for further clues that could confirm its presence.
The main argument for the existence of an additional planet in the Solar System are observations of exotic orbits of trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs). They show a kind of clustering that may suggest that a massive object - perhaps "Nibiru" - is "controlling" their motion in these orbits.
Scientists conducted advanced computer simulations to study the behavior of these distant objects. They found that simulations that included Planet Nine produced results that matched actual observations much better than models without this hypothetical planet.
Distant regions of the solar system show many anomalous dynamical structures, pointing to the presence of an as yet undetected massive celestial body - potentially a ninth planet.
It will be crucial that the new observatory, which will start operating soon, continues to follow this matter. The Vera Rubin Observatory in Chile, equipped with a powerful 8.4-meter telescope, will allow for a more detailed examination of available data and the search for direct evidence of the existence of the mysterious "Nibiru"
Although there is still no certainty about its existence, there is more and more evidence that there may be another, previously unknown planet in the most distant regions of our solar system. Its discovery could shed new light on the history and evolution of our cosmic neighborhood.
