According to new research published by a faculty member at the University of Arkansas Department of Mathematical Sciences, periodic mass extinctions on Earth could be linked to the existence of a ninth planet in our solar system.
Daniel Whittier, a retired professor of astrophysics, now working as a math instructor, published these findings in the January issue of Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (what a mouthful). In his findings, he states that “Planet X” triggers comet showers, which he’s linked to mass extinctios on Earth at twenty-seven million year intervals.
Whitmire and a colleague by the name of John Matese first published research on the connection between Planet X and mass extinctions in 1985. At the time, there were only three explanations proposed to explain such regular comet showers: Planet X, a sister star to the sun and vertical oscillations of the sun as it orbits our galaxy. The last two of theories have been ruled out, leaving only the existence of Planet X.

Bring it one
As far as I’m concerned, the solar system always had nine planets, Pluto being the ninth. God scientists can be fucking retarded.
That’s exactly why I entirely GAVE UP on YOU MAN!
You ACT AS IF YOUR POMPOUS AMERICA IS NEVER GOING TO END!!
YOUR WRONG, WAY FREAKING REALITY WRONG!
Death and destruction of Solar Planets is now…and has always been a way of Planetary Evolution. I have often wondered, “How many civilizations have risen and fallen in the lifespan of our Little Solar System?” We, the Human Race…is but the newest form of life to evolve on a Planet of our Primary!”
When idiots finally realize that “planet x” (Eris) has an orbital diameter of about 94AU and not much bigger than our moon, I fail to see how it’ll cause “mass extinctions due to comet showers.” (Keep in mind that this is also still including Pluto as a planet, as it should be.) ..Now…as for an 11th planet, I’m still doing research in details.
Ok let us know
When you figure it out, tell NASA. It seems they don’t know.
Helen, NASA as an organization is invaluable, but when you add bureaucracy and bribery into the mix, well, then, they say what the political pockets want them to say. There are still plenty of true scientists out there ( some even in NASA) that are more reliable.
Planet X does not exist. Go away and find your funding elsewhere.
It exists in their minds not our solar system
