“The Most Extreme Orbit We’ve Ever Seen” Yeah, but is it on RECORD? If it’s not on record, it don’t count.

Looks like it almost collides with Jupiter and Uranus. Why wouldn’t its gravity have affected their orbits when it flew so close to them?

Ever try to get a 3 year old to do what you tell him, or a Republican? Then it’s easier to understand this planet.

Different solar system. It can stay there, too.

This is clearly Nibiru.
The alien overlords will be along shortly...

Is it the size of a regular mammoth or a woolly mammoth?

It’s a comparison overlay to show what the orbit would look like in our solar system. The exoplanet is not in our solar system.
To: BenLurkin
Exoplanet, periastron, elliptical. Sometimes I think scientists just make words up to sound smart. Elliptical. Pbbbbbbt. There’s no such word.

That's less than 5 astronomical units. How many parceps are there in an astronomical unit?

Because Jupiter and Neptune are in our solo at system.
To: Texas Eagle
Elliptical. Pbbbbbbt. There’s no such word. It's in dictionary.com, so it must be real.

Well, the periastron is a patch of skin that people have in a very personal part of their anatomies, yes?

In the 50’s astronomers would say “perigeewhiz” but it fell out of favor once the hippies showed up and ruined everything.

The weird planet is in another system. It might be showing our solar system as a comparison of what it is doing in the other system. Out there, it might be affecting the orbits of other bodies in its system. Unless it is widely out of the ecliptic of any other planets. Like Pluto is in ours.
