That area actually looks like the Oort Cloud in this article

Dark Jupiter May Haunt Edge of Solar System

A century of comet data suggests a dark, Jupiter-sized object is lurking at the solar system’s outer edge and hurling chunks of ice and dust toward Earth.

“We’ve accumulated 10 years’ more data, double the comets we viewed to test this hypothesis,” said planetary scientist John Matese of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. “Only now should we be able to falsify or verify that you could have a Jupiter-mass object out there.”

In 1999, Matese and colleague Daniel Whitmire suggested the sun has a hidden companion that boots icy bodies from the Oort Cloud, a spherical haze of comets at the solar system’s fringes, into the inner solar system where we can see them.

I'm trying to get this straight. How much of a fraction of "c" are these things supposedly traveling, and if it is like 95%, are there any natural objects of such size that would be traveling at such a high rate by natural causes? ... I don't recall anything like this of a natural origin.

BTW, if even one of these struck the earth at 95% of "c", life on this planet would be a past tense.

Prolly just an invisible mass of dark matter...

Did you see that hyphenated woman ‘scientist’ during the NASA press conference?

Jeeeeeeeeeeeezzzz.......

Almost every mans worst nightmare.

[mowowie]

did anybody ever wonder what actually went on inside the Death Star?

I mean yea, they needed a few guys to shoot the big gun but c’mon, That thing could hold the entire population of the USA!

The Swamp gas picture made me laugh.

i don't know, but... you're right. anything approaching at that speed and we are an ex-planet if hit

I tied 3 mini-glowsticks to the bottom of my kite a few years back on a foggy, nightime beach on cape cod.

The next morning at breakfast at the hotel a bunch of people were talking about the green UFO they saw in the sky the night before.
Pretty funny.

Earth is constantly moving in 15 different direction.
The Earth is orbiting the sun.
the sun is orbiting the galactic center.
The galaxy is orbiting the local group of galaxies.
The local cluster is orbiting the Virgo Supercluster.
Etc....

These aliens better have good aim to know where we will be in 2 years....

Interesting . . .

Seems like a must in the
