9th planet: 1 year long with 20,000 years Earth?

Scientists have discovered traces of another planet in the Solar System, hiding behind Neptune and having ice objects moving around.

Since Pluto is no longer considered a planet, scientists agree that our Solar System has 8 planets. However, new evidence shows that it actually has 9 planets.

The mysterious planet that the scientific world is temporarily named is at the outermost part of the solar system, farther away than Neptune that humans cannot afford to observe.

If there is indeed the 9th Planet, its orbit is very large and 1 year will be as long as 10,000-20,000 years on Earth - (NASA artwork).

In the latest statement in Quanta, the team from the California Institute of Technology (USA) said that according to calculations the mysterious planet is 4 times the size and 10 times the weight of the Earth.

Very far away from the Sun, it will have a giant orbit and take a lot of time to spin all around the sun. So one year on this planet will be 10,000-20,000 years long on Earth.

The study stems from the findings of the California Institute of Technology in 2016, when they observed objects identified as icy rocks, moving in an orbit in the far flank of the Solar System, far away. than Neptune is the furthest planet.

The trajectory shows that icy objects can be affected by the gravity of a planet. Since then, they have found more evidence of the existence of the 9th Planet.

Dr. Konstantin Batygin, an astrophysicist, member of the research team - said they are approaching the end of the journey to find the mysterious planet. Currently, they have switched to using the Subaru Space Telescope located in Hawaii and hope to see the 9th Planet soon.

This is not the first group of scientists to come up with the theory of "The 9th Planet " as well as evidence of it. Many astronomical agencies - the world is also racing to search for this mysterious land, including NASA.
