Is there a Planet X, a ‘massive perturber,’ hidden beyond Pluto?

Well now. I don’t need me a beer.

I didn’t know that you could say “mass perturber” on the internet.

Where are the sex PC police when you need them?

Welp. When it’s your time, it’s your time is the way I was raised.

GOD has a plan for all of us.

Wake me when they discover Planet XXX.

Isn’t that this how the existence of Pluto was indicated? differences in the orbits of the nearer planets that had to be because of influences of an unknown orbiter?

[Psalm 73]

"The Bible refers to this object as the great Red Dragon."

Sound reasoning that lines up with Scripture.

I used to think the "end" was maybe a generation or two away, but I never could have imagined how fast the prophetic time-table would be upon us.

To paraphrase Joe Biden: This Iran agreement is a big f'in deal - I believe it means much more than many here on Freerepublic may think, unless you are intimately familiar with the Bible.

When the central body is the sun, the periapsis is the perihelion. The plane of reference is the ecliptic plane, the plane that contains the earth's orbit. The argument of the perihelion is just the angle between the point where an object's orbit crosses from north to south (from below to above the ecliptic) and the point on its orbit nearest the sun, measured through the sun. North in the ecliptic plane is the direction of the earth's orbital angular velocity vector, which conveniently is more or less (within about 23.5 degrees) of the direction of the earth's rotation axis, south to north positive.

That link doesn’t constitute evidence, either.

Thanks all.

Here’s a scientist’s website, he’s an advocate of the Nemesis model:

John Matese has written about comet focussing (that long-period comets are disproportionately arriving from the same point in the outer solar system):
