wormwood, nibiru, nemisis?...haha...kidding. You know its pretty strange that they would find something this huge after all this time in our solar system. their statements and claims suggest that they could be telling the truth as far as not discovering this until now, and the implications of that has me concerned some. This is just what I think as follows. Is it the sun's little brother, or twin? Scientists are discovering that binary star systems are more common then what they have once thought. This new so called planet is made up of hydrogen and helium (as they say), what does that suggest you know. I think its orbit is in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. The space between Mars and Jupiter is just astronomical! What was or is there other than rocks? I think its Left over rocks that never did consolidate into a planet, or residuals from the formation of a giant planet. It makes sense to me to go from biggest to smallest. This new planet, Jupiter, Saturn, and so on...
They never noticed it before because it could have a very very large elliptical orbit shooting past the termination shock and into as far as the helioshere (assuming planets could thrive in those other conditions). Its kinda like the way some bionary star systems orbit each other. This also could explain why mars can't sustain or fully mature an atmosphere. Lets just say every 500,000 years this new planet makes its orbit between Mars and Jupiter and with each pass Mars gets its developing or redevelopind atmosphere pulled off of it because of the influence of this new planet. Also, if you believe in interplanetary climate change this could be a precursor of whats to come.
Look at Yellowstone its eruption average is like every 640,000 years, something like that. How this could be related is look what goes on in our own solar system. Take for example the moon of Jupiter called "Io". Its a moon of constant erupting volcanoes do to the gravity of Jupiter, it tugs, pulls, stretches the moon constantly generating friction and therefore you have liquid rocks. Im not really implying that this new planet is responsible for climate change or the eruptions of Yellowstone. Its just something to think about. Besides, depending on its location, how far out it is, when does if any at all a planet starts to feel the impacts of it, how far out can the gravity waves travel and survive from this planet?
Obviously, I am no writer..hahaha, nor am I a scientist, these are just very uneducated thoughts of my own, although its a shame that most scientist need a number just to have an imagination. I will say this though for a fact, it does cause some concern that they are just finding stuff like this that is so big with so much uncertainty and so close to home... Im just waiting for Nasa to say "Oh and it will be in a neighborhood near you in about 20 years"..haha.
Again everyone, these are just my thoughts, I dont know, so thanks for taking the time to read.. |
