New study suggests how wide-orbit planets form, supporting existence of Planet Nine (phys.org)

The findings could help explain the long-standing mystery of Planet Nine, a hypothetical planet believed to orbit our sun at a distance of 250 to 1,000 AU. Though it has never been directly observed, the odd orbits of several trans-Neptunian objects hint at its presence.

As we refine our understanding of where to look and what to look for, we're not just increasing the odds of finding Planet Nine—we're opening a new window into the architecture and evolution of planetary systems throughout the galaxy.
