The Original Solar SystemUsing a Titius-Bode law for planetary spacing in its simplest form (where each planet has double the period of the previous one), we infer the existence of twelve original major planets, of which half remain today. Two short-lived gas giant planets may be responsible for the "late heavy bombardment" episode in the early solar system, and for building up the mass of Jupiter... Evolution of the planets would typically proceed via tides and drag toward the maximum-stability Titius-Bode-Law configuration, wherein each planet has a circular, co-planar orbit with double the orbital period of the next planet in. Once that was achieved, further orbital evolution would cease. All the major features of the planetary system can apparently be derived from the process just outlined, although it is different in important ways from the standard solar nebula picture.

I asked about Bode’s Law when they discovered Xena, was it?
The response was that the first few planets lined up with Bode’s Law was just due to a coincidence.
Bush’s fault.
Definitely flakey. Mercury is actually a moon of Venus, our moon was captured from a planet between Earth and Mars, and Pluto is a moon of Neptune.

here’s a link to an old-style topic; the slowing of the deep-space probes was probably best explained as a consequence of a venting of something on the craft, I forget the details, please resort to a web search for more.

Since it hasn't been detected, it would have to be A) really dark, B) really far out (the gap would then be a consequence of something further out), C)really far out of the ecliptic, D) moving in retrograde, or E) no longer there.Planet XWhat this means is that a planet of Earth's mass could exist undetected if it were more than a few 100 AU away, and even a Jupiter (300 Earth mass planet) could exist at distances only slightly greater. The sun could have a companion brown dwarf or even a star if far enough away! It's a nice thought but it will be very tough to do anything about it unless we are lucky. The Pan STARRS telescope now under development in Hawaii will provide the best constraints in the forseeable future. Will we get lucky? Stay tuned to find out.

Great. Now even undocumented planets are trying to get into America.
They’re clearing gaps in the Kuiper Belt that Americans wouldn’t clear.
Touche’.
TVF’s holds the view that the “Face on Mars” is actually evidence for a former intelligent species there. It’s just an unremarkable natural formation. However, his view that Pluto is an escaped Moon of Neptune somewhat antedates his EPH, and he doesn’t think that the Moon is a captured former satellite of an exploded planet — his view is that the Moon was born of the Earth as a consequence of overspin as the heavier stuff sank to the core of the proto-Earth.
Look, just because you’ve never understood the power of the Dark Side...

Kolob?
I think the name Algore would be more appropriate for this proposed planet:
A) It is presumed to be quite massive.
B) It belongs in the Great Void.
C) Given its distance from the Sun, it also is in desperate
need for Global Warming to be true.
