Massive object passing through solar system is a better explanation for nature of orbits of Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune Vishwam Sankaran Wednesday 11 December 2024 09:47 GMT ...

In these simulations, the orbits were warped by the passing of an object between two and 50 times Jupiter's mass, which plunged deep into the inner solar system as it traveled.

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is expected to find millions of unknown objects in our solar system, and perhaps even a ...

Astronomers have revealed new research showing that millions of new solar system objects are likely to be detected by a brand-new facility, which is expected to come online later this year.

Astronomers anticipate an unprecedented view of the solar system as the Rubin Observatory begins to scan millions of hidden celestial objects.

For the dwarf planet candidate, one trip around the sun takes over 24,000 years. Its orbit challenges a proposed path for a hypothetical Planet Nine.

Wide-orbit planets are fairly common according to the study, and there's a good chance we have one of our own.

Discovery of 2017OF201, a large trans-Neptune Object, challenges previous beliefs about the Kuiper Belt and hints at the ...

U.S. astronomers hunting for "Planet Nine" have instead stumbled on what appears to be a new dwarf planet in the solar system's outer reaches.

The massive object flew through the solar system at a velocity of about 6km per second, coming within 20 astronomical units of the sun and shaping the orbits of the gas giant planets into what we ...

A group of astronomers from across the globe have revealed new research showing that millions of new solar system objects will be detected by a brand-new facility, which is expected to come online ...
