[[Last Thursday|In 2016,]] it was announced that disturbances in the orbits of the outer planets of the solar system (oh, and [[Shit no one cares about|dwarf planets]] too: [[You Forgot Poland|sorry, Pluto)]] indicated that a large planet, possibly [[OMG|as large as fucking Neptune,]] was [[Lurking|lurking]] out in [[Goatse|the vastness of space,]] and only swinging by every 10-20,000 years. Given the distance from the Sun to which Planet Nine's orbit takes it, it has to pass through the outer fringe of the Kuiper Belt, known as the 'scattered disk', every time it returns towards the Sun. | [[Last Thursday|In 2016,]] it was announced that disturbances in the orbits of the outer planets of the solar system (oh, and [[Shit no one cares about|dwarf planets]] too: [[You Forgot Poland|sorry, Pluto)]] indicated that a large planet, possibly [[OMG|as large as fucking Neptune,]] was [[Lurking|lurking]] out in [[Goatse|the vastness of space,]] and only swinging by every 10-20,000 years.

This suburb of the Solar System is also home to the icy rocks that become comets when they get nudged out of orbit. | This suburb of the Solar System is also home to the icy rocks that become comets when they get nudged out of orbit. (Out of the 21 bright comets observed since 2011, [https://in-the-sky.org/data/comets.php 14 appeared during the first ten months of 2016,] but this is doubtless just an interesting statistical fluke). | ||
The math is TL;DC (Too Long; Didn't Calculate) but it's pretty good and now every [[Nerd|boffin]] with a decent [[Dildo|telescope]] is peering into the mysteries of the cosmos, hoping to spot Nibi... I mean, Planet Nine, out there among the [[Carl Sagan|Bbillions and Bbillions]] of stars, asteroids, and discarded astronaut diapers. Did I just say the word 'asteroids'? Think no more of it. | The math is TL;DC (Too Long; Didn't Calculate) but it's pretty good and now every [[Nerd|boffin]] with a decent [[Dildo|telescope]] is peering into the mysteries of the cosmos, hoping to spot Nibi...
