The new dwarf planet is not good for Planet X.


Above: 2017 OF201's trajectory. 

The new dwarf planet has an interesting elliptic trajectory. Researchers calculated that Planet X should be that small dwarf planet out of the solar system. So, if we want to rule out Planet X, or Planet 9, that will be done. But the researchers who made that dwarf planet's calculations say that it's too early to rule out Planet X.  

This new dwarf planet orbits the sun in 25000 years. And that is very far from the Sun. It's too small being Planet X. 

The mysterious disturbances in Planet Neptune's trajectory must have some other explanation. That explanation can be some kind of material or energy flow at the edge of the solar system. And that thing makes those disturbances very interesting. The mystery remains. Errors in Neptune's trajectories are not gone. There are also some other errors in the Kuiper Belt object's trajectories. But the question is where Planet X is? The object is invisible. So maybe it does not exist. And there is the suggestion that Alpha Centauri, Proxima Centauri, and Luhman 16 star systems can cause those errors if they are in the right positions. But the myth of Planet X remains. 

The ninth planet is many times ruled out, but then some mysterious events happen in Neptune's trajectory. What causes those mystery wobblings is a mystery. At this point, I must say that Planet X is the mysterious gravitational effect in Neptune's trajectory. Or could it be some kind of plasma, or energy flow that pushes Neptune? Do the mysterious things that happen to the Voyager spacecraft have some kind of connection with Neptune's trajectory? 

Some things can have a connection with this mysterious behavior of the planet Neptune and its trajectory. Those things are the ice geysers on the Triton moon and the X-ray flares at the Unranus's poles. There is something that causes those things. And could that mystery message from Voyager be formed, when that spacecraft impacted some kind of energy flow?

The new evidence of controversial planet 9.


"Planet Nine is a hypothesized massive planet, first proposed in 2014, that is speculated to orbit far out in the solar system. It has not been detected formally. Instead, astronomers have inferred its presence from perceived perturbations of the orbits of some Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs). The planet is estimated to be 2 to 4 times the radius, and about ten times the mass of the Earth. (Image credit: Mark Garlick/Science Photo Library/Getty Images)" (Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

"Planet Nine would appear to move on the sky because of parallax as Earth moves around the sun. On any particular day, it might seem to be in one position, then six months later when Earth is on the other side of the sun, it would shift to another position, perhaps by 10 to 15 arcminutes — then, six months after that, it would seem to shift back to its original position. To remove the effects of parallax, Phan's team searched for Planet Nine on the same date every year in the AKARI data, because on any given date it would appear in the same place, with zero parallax shift, every year." (Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

"They then also scrutinized each candidate object that their search threw up on an hourly basis. If a candidate is a fast-moving, nearby object, then its motion would be detectable from hour to hour, and could therefore be ruled out."(Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

"It appears in one position in IRAS's 1983 image, though it was not in that position when AKARI looked. However, there is an object seen by AKARI in a position 47.4 arcminutes away that isn't there in the IRAS imagery, and it is within the range that Planet Nine could have traveled in the intervening time. In other words, this object has moved a little further along its orbit around the sun in the 23 or more years between IRAS and AKARI. This careful search led Phan's team to a single object, a tiny dot in the infrared data."(Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

Can this be Planet X? Researchers found interesting details in AI-based old-data re-analyzation.  "A comparison of the position of the candidate object in the IRAS data (left) and the AKARI data (right) and the distance in arcminutes between them. (Image credit: Phan et al (2025))" (Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

""Once we know the position of the candidate, a longer exposure with the current large optical telescopes can detect it," Phan told Space.com. "However, the follow-up observations with optical telescopes still need to cover about three square degrees because Planet Nine would have moved from the position where AKARI detected it in 2006. This is doable with a camera that has a large field of view, such as the Dark Energy Camera, which has a field of view of three square degrees on the Blanco four-meter telescope." (Space.com/Evidence of controversial Planet 9 uncovered in sky surveys taken 23 years apart)

Planet 9 might have a 23-year orbital period. The data that astronomers collected from space tells about disturbance. That repeats after 23 years. There are calculations that Planet 9 might have more mass than Neptune. And that planet's distance is about 700 times Earth's distance to the Sun. That means Planet 9 might be a frozen gas giant the long way out from the solar system. That means that if that planet exists it might be even colder than Pluto. 

There is the possibility. This kind of very cold planet's atmosphere acts like a black hole's halo. That means a very thin plasma around that planet can transport heat into its poles. Turning the gas flow into the poles. That gas flow acts like a thermal pump. The infrared radiation forms the pike-shaped structure. Similar to a neutron star's jet but very much weaker. This thing requires that the planet's own atmosphere is frozen. There is also the possibility that there are colder points in the planet's atmosphere or inside it. That makes energy flow into those colder points. 


The Iapetus moon of Saturn. "Iapetus as imaged by the Cassini orbiter in false color, September 2007. Iapetus's unusual coloration can be seen, with the equatorial ridge on the right limb. The large craters Engelier and Gerin are near the bottom." (Wikipedia, Iapetus_(moon))

The question is why we cannot see that object. One of those answers can be that dust between it and the sun can cover that planet's weak infrared signature. 

The maximum temperature of that planet might be near to 4 Kelvin. It would be roughly hotter. To the cosmic background. Or 3 Kelvin radiation. If the planet's temperature is about 0,5-5 percent higher than the cosmic background the dust can easily cover the planet's infrared signature. If dust is hotter than the planet. That makes it impossible to see it. 

Another explanation for the invisibility of Planet X can be that it's similar to the Iapetus moon. If one side of the planet is black that absorbs temperature and the other side is white that makes energy travel to the other side of the planet. That energy flow is always out from the Sun makes the planet extremely hard to detect. If the atmosphere travels to the side that is away from the Earth that causes the effect that the atmosphere can be very thin and acts like a thermal pump that makes a very unusual effect. 

That planet. If it exists is so far away from the sun that it's colder than Kuiper Belt objects. So IR radiation from those objects can cover it below it. That kind of place will freeze the planet's entire atmosphere. The thin plasma cloud makes it possible that the planet's dayside is colder than its nightside. 



Uranus's X-ray emission. "This composite image shows a Chandra X-ray image of Uranus from 2002 (pink) superimposed on an optical image from the Keck-I Telescope obtained in 2004.

Sometimes impacts with its atmosphere raise the temperature.  And in those extremely frozen conditions, even the smallest temperature differences have a big effect. Conditions in the most out solar system are cold but stable. That means there are things. That is not possible near the Sun. One of those things is the plasma whirls that form magnetic fields around the dwarf planets. Near the sun the particle flow from the Sun the particle flow pushes those plasma fields away. But in the Kuiper Belt, the solar wind is very weak. 

There are many myths and theories about that mysterious object called "Planet 9" or "Planet X". When researchers talk about that object, they mean the mysterious gravity effect that disturbs Neptune's orbital trajectory. There are also theories that those interferences can be a very small black hole. The planet-mass black hole can form when things like relativistic jets hit planets. 

The small black hole can explain things like Uranus's X-ray flares. That thing would accelerate those particles at the speeds that make those X-ray flares possible. Those X-ray flares can also form when high-energy particles from Uranus's poles hit particles that come from the Sun. That can explain some of those mysterious X-ray flares.

Does Planet Nine or Planet X exist?


"The hypothetical Planet Nine is imagined as an ice giant in this artist’s conception. Neptune’s orbit is shown as the ellipse around the distant Sun (upper right). Credit: ESO/Tom Ruen/nagualdesign" (Astronomy, Does Planet Nine exist?)

The terms "Planet 9" and "Planet X" mean the strange gravity effect in the Kuiper Belt. That effect causes anomalies in Neptune and Uranus trajectories and it affects also some Kuiper Belt objects. Nobody has seen Planet 9 yet. The interesting thing is how that large object can remain unseen. 

There is a possibility that energy travels to that planet's nucleus which can be colder than its shell. That increases its mass all the time, especially in cases where energy cannot travel out from that planet's shell. 

Researchers predict that the temperature on the planet is about 47 Kelvin. That means -226 degrees Celsius and the absolute zero point is -273,15 C or 0 K. At that point atom movement ends and there is no infrared radiation from that object. 

"The newcomer replacing Pluto presently goes by “Planet Nine.” If and when it finally shows up, it will get the honor of a real name, but so far, the evidence for this hypothetical planet is all indirect. Just as many of the thousands of known planets orbiting other stars have been found by observing their gravitational effects, rather than by actually seeing them, Planet Nine has been identified thanks to the way it has apparently been tugging on a variety of small bodies in the outer solar system and pulling their orbits into lockstep patterns. If it exists, Planet Nine orbits the Sun at an average distance around 550 astronomical units (AU), or 550 times as far as Earth is from the Sun. Astronomers also think it has between five and 10 times Earth’s mass." (Astronomy, Does Planet Nine exist?)

"The orbits of 96 of 109 distant minor planets and extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs), known as of January 2021, are diagrammed here. The farthest point from the Sun of each is greater than 200 times the distance between Earth and the Sun (1 AU). Orbits colored red are ETNOs aligned with the hypothetical Planet Nine; those colored blue are anti-aligned. The three pink orbits are Sedna and two similar objects. Orbits colored brown are objects that come closer to the Sun than Neptune’s orbit. The predicted orbit of Planet Nine is in yellow.

Four exotic things that Planet 9 could be. 


1) Black hole. (That can be in far longer distance than 550 times Earth's distance from the sun. That 550 times Earth's distance from the sun is Planet 9 predicted distance from the sun) 


2) Coherent gravity wave


3) Miniature white dwarf. (Planet that pressed into extremely dense form) 


4) Coherent dark energy. (Nobody has seen that thing yet. But it's possible. That dark energy can have a coherent shape, like all other wave movements have). 





The temperature of that planet will be really low and the difference between energy levels on the day- and night sides can make it possible for energy to travel out from its sun side and that can make planet nine or planet X invisible to us. 

The interesting thing is that the very strong gravity effect doesn't cause some anomalies in Uranus, Neptune, and dwarf planet's atmospheres. Also, interesting observations are the X- and gamma-ray flares on Uranus's atmosphere.  That phenomenon can form when something accelerates cosmic particles. 

But can "Planet X" or Planet 9 be something different than we even imagine? There are calculations that Planet X's mass is something between Mars and ten times that of Earth. So could planet 9 be something small and dense? There have been introductions that this mysterious object can be grapefruit-size black holes. 

An interesting thing is that Planet Nine can be a very dense object. All dense objects are not black holes. That means it can be a very tightly packed material. That is far heavier than any material on Earth. That means it's theoretically possible that the large planet can packed to a similar form as some white dwarfs. 

When high-power energy impulse hits the planet it can turn the planet's atmosphere hotter than the planet's nucleus. That effect can push the planet into a small size very dense object. The energy that presses the planet can turn it into a dense object that can have a white dwarf's, neutron star's, or even black hole's density. 

So the object can be very small in comparison with its gravity effect. And that makes it hard to detect. When energy hits an object, its mass will increase. And that thing can mean that something that we think is a dwarf planet can be a dwarf planet with steroids. 

Actually, the mysterious gravitational effect in the Kuiper belt can be something that we even cannot imagine. It can be the coherent gravity wave structure. Or something that we have never seen yet.

Planet 9 causes discussions again.


"Illustration of the hypothetical Planet 9. Credit: R. Hurt/IPAC, Caltech" (Phys.org/Planet 9 is running out of places to hide)


Hypothetical Planet 9 or 10, if you think that Pluto is the planet is a mystery. And maybe it remains a mystery. There are billions of theories about what that mystery could be. And nobody ever detected that planet. The only observations about that planet are gravitational interactions between something unseen and planet Neptune. 

In some visions that planet would be a miniature black hole. Or maybe it was some rogue planet that traveled near our solar system. Nobody has seen that planet yet. But sometimes there is intensive research for finding that planet. But all attempts to find that mysterious gravitational object are failed. 

The "Planet 9" is the name of an unknown anomaly in the trajectory of planet Neptune. And the thing is that Planet 9 is not a red dwarf called "Nemesis". There is suspicion that "Planet 9" is some kind of density in the Kuiper Belt.

Or it might be the cloud of dust just outside the Kuiper belt. One explanation for that "planet" is that the members of the Alpha Centauri system (Alpha Centauri A and B, Proxima Centauri, and Luhman-16) would go in a straight line. And that causes the gravitational anomaly. 

There is also the possibility that the energy impulse from the black hole or somewhere else causes the anomaly in the trajectory of planet Neptune. The interesting thing about Planet 9 is that we cannot see it. The anomalies of the trajectory of the Neptune were real. But the thing that causes them remains a mystery. 

One of the possibilities is that hypothetical Planet 9 kicked off from orbiting trajectory. The distance to that hypothetical object would be so high that even a small gravitational effect could pull that planet out from its trajectory. 

Could planet 9 be some kind of rogue planet? In some hypotheses, planet 9 is the old planet from maybe the Van Maanen system. That means there is no radioactive material left. And that planet is the zombie. Maybe planet 9 just passed our solar system. 

If we would find that planet the surface temperature of it could be the same as the cosmic background. Which is 3 kelvin. Or even lower. That makes that planet extremely hard to detect. If the temperature on that planet is lower than 3 Kelvin. That means energy travels to that planet. But even though the surface temperature is precise 3 kelvin that planet is hard to detect, because there is no infrared radiation. 

The surface of that hypothetical planet would be in superconducting condition. And it makes the planet an extremely large size quantum hard disk where signals remain in their form. That means all radiation that is left from Earth and impacts Planet 9 will be stored on the surface of that planet in the form where it is transmitted. 

But there is one interesting hypothesis. That is that Planet 9 is formed of dark matter. So planet 9 exists but the only observable thing about that planet is its gravitational field. 

That means we could not see or touch that planet. That planet would be only the gravitational effect that will cause anomalies to the trajectory of Neptune. But the thing is that mystery remains. Planet 9 waits for its finder. And maybe that planet ever found. Today scientists have better tools than ever before. And they should find that planet. But if the "planet" is a small nebula where the bites are near zero kelvin, that thing is hard to see.

Black holes in our solar system

 


Black holes in our solar system


Under this text is a link to an article that is published in the Business Insider magazine. There is writing about the possibility that we have a black hole in our solar system(1).  

There is one very interesting thing Could we have a black hole in our solar system? (2) Could this be possible? When we want to observe black holes, we must realize that we cannot get observations straight from the black hole. We see the disk of material around it, and here I must say, that we see only the radiation, what comes around the black hole. But inside the point, where escaping velocity would across the speed of light we cannot get the observation. 

And that means that we see black holes only when something drops inside them. So if the black hole is orbiting the star in the area, where is not material, that thing would cause that the radiation, what comes from the black hole would be very hard to notice. Or in other scenarios, the material that is dropped in the black hole is pure helium or hydrogen, because the black hole would act similar way with planets, and they will sweep other particles from their trajectory. 

That means that the light particles, that are dropped in the black hole would not send very strong radiation, which is hard to detect from the Earth, because it is sending in the form of X-ray frequency. That weak radiation would be lost in the background radiation. There have been speculations that near our solar system can be the very small black hole, what size would be about basketball. 

But what could form that kind of black hole? The answer would be that the antimatter explosion could form those really small black holes, which can exist about thousands or millions of years. Those periods are extremely short if we are thinking them at the point of view of the ages of stars like the sun. But even if those black holes would vaporize in a short period, that thing will take a very long time, if we compare that thing to the lifetime of a human. 

The vaporization time depends on the things, how much material the black hole can pull inside. And the stars would give the energy to those black holes, which means that the existing time of the small black holes is extremely hard to predict. The vaporization means that sometimes the black holes are losing photons, and what smaller the mass of this supermassive particle goes the loss of photons would increase. 

And sooner or later the black hole has finished its existence. When a black hole is in the space, the black holes cannot get anything to eat, and that means that they cannot get more energy. But if the black hole is near the star, that will feed it with energy, and that kind of thing can increase the lifetime of the black holes, which is extremely small.
