It would take this new planet between 10,000 and 20,000 years to make just one full orbit around the Sun (where Neptune completes an orbit roughly every 165 years).
Does planet9 exist?
Unless Planet Nine is observed, its existence is purely conjectural. Several alternative hypotheses have been proposed to explain the observed clustering of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs)….Planet Nine.
| Orbital characteristics | |

| Apparent magnitude | ~21 |
Has Planet X been found?
Today, most astronomers agree that Planet X, as Lowell defined it, does not exist.
How long is a day on Planet X?
Option 2: A Table
| Planet | Day Length |
|---|---|
| Earth | 24 hours |
| Mars | 25 hours |
| Jupiter | 10 hours |
| Saturn | 11 hours |
Has Planet 9 Been Found?
WHY IT MATTERS — Although its existence has not been proven yet, direct detection of a ninth planet would be the first discovery of a new planet orbiting the Solar System in two centuries.
Is there a planet 10?
The Caltech scientists believe Planet X may have has a mass about 10 times that of Earth and be similar in size to Uranus or Neptune. The predicted orbit is about 20 times farther from our Sun on average than Neptune (which orbits the Sun at an average distance of 2.8 billion miles).
Is Planet Nine a black hole?
Is Planet 9 a black hole? A group of astronomers, including Avi Loeb at Harvard University, suggested Planet Nine may be a tiny black hole somewhere out in the Oort Cloud. If Planet Nine turns out to be Black Hole Nine instead, it's probably about the size of a grapefruit but about 5 to 10 times the mass of Earth.
Are we moving closer to the Sun?
We are not getting closer to the sun, but scientists have shown that the distance between the sun and the Earth is changing. The sun shines by burning its own fuel, which causes it to slowly lose power, mass, and gravity. The sun's weaker gravity as it loses mass causes the Earth to slowly move away from it.
How is 1 hour in space 7 years on Earth?
The first planet they land on is close to a supermassive black hole, dubbed Gargantuan, whose gravitational pull causes massive waves on the planet that toss their spacecraft about. Its proximity to the black hole also causes an extreme time dilation, where one hour on the distant planet equals 7 years on Earth.
How long is 1 hour in space?
One hour on Earth is 0.0026 seconds in space.
