A massive new planet in our solar system named Tyche? Maybe. But what does “Tyche” mean? | |

Quoting: Matrix777[link to hotword.dictionary.com] Already This Is Misleading Info This Is Not A New Planet. NASA Has Known About This Planet Since 1983. It Has 36 different names and it is 3x's the size of Jupiter. wow correction it is four times the size of Jupiter. Here Is A Link That Will Help.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1278675 United States 02/27/2011 02:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Q: Why is the hypothesized object dubbed "Tyche," and why choose a Greek name when the names of other planets derive from Roman mythology? A: In the 1980s, a different companion to the sun was hypothesized. That object, named for the Greek goddess "Nemesis," was proposed to explain periodic mass extinctions on the Earth. Nemesis would have followed a highly elliptical orbit, perturbing comets in the Oort Cloud roughly every 26 million years and sending a shower of comets toward the inner solar system. Some of these comets would have slammed into Earth, causing catastrophic results to life. Recent scientific analysis no longer supports the idea that extinctions on Earth happen at regular, repeating intervals. Thus, the Nemesis hypothesis is no longer needed. However, it is still possible that the sun could have a distant, unseen companion in a more circular orbit with a period of a few million years -- one that would not cause devastating effects to terrestrial life. To distinguish this object from the malevolent "Nemesis," astronomers chose the name of Nemesis's benevolent sister in Greek mythology, "Tyche." Read more: [link to www.digitaljournal.com] |
