A fascinating new study suggests that a close encounter with a wayward star might explain the unusual orbits of certain objects at the edge of our Solar System. The star, which came within 110 astronomical units (AU) of the Sun, may have disrupted the orbits of small celestial bodies and even some of our planetary moons. To put that into context, that's closer to us than Voyager 1, which is 164 AU from Earth.
Researchers used over 3,000 computer simulations to test this stellar flyby theory. Their results support the idea that the star's gravity could explain the tilted, eccentric orbits of trans-Neptunian objects, including the distant dwarf planet Sedna, which is 937 AU from the Sun. Even more intriguingly, this stellar encounter may have caused some of the irregular moons of Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune to be captured into their current orbits.
The findings shed new light on our Solar System's history, offering a potential explanation for both the odd behavior of distant objects and the existence of retrograde moons. If confirmed, this event could mark a dramatic yet previously overlooked chapter in the evolution of our cosmic neighborhood.

Most star systems are binary. Might be our binary companion.
No.
Yeah no thanks, earth being tidal locked or having a messed up orbit isn't good for us
Nemesis
Nope.
Hey! Voyager I was launched in 1977 NOT 1971!
Pioneer 10 was launched in 1971 I think.
@@DavidHaft1970 Close 1972
Kevin, Is that Voyager 1 was launched or YOU were launched? Funny typos, I think.
It wasn't that long ago that one was presumed to have a tin foil hat when talking about planet 9...
_"Scientists warn that we will run out of conspiracies in 6 months at the rate at which they are coming true"_
Planet 9. Planet X was predicted in the 1800's and they still believe it exists because of the tilt of trans-neptunian satellites/brown dwarfs.
we would be able to see another star if any was that close.
72K yo, the human race nearly went extinct. Coincidence?
3:19 how did bro mess up almost EVERY order of planets😭
wtf is blud talking about🙏💀
@@grimchameleon0546 idk what this noob yapping about. OP only accidentally switched up saturn and jupiter in the video. In the following showing of the planets he shows it in the correct order so clearly just a minor slip up.
So since the estimation of exactly when a star may have come close enough to tilt planetary orbits is a best guess, wouldn't it make sense to wonder if that is what caused the Late Heavy Bombardment?
Imagine the torque on our magnetic north pole, it's Moving kinda fast already, like it's attracted to something. Pole flip maybe ??
Two merging stones in space don't prove the way plantets were built. It is more like static electricity induced from the Sun's activity and gravity together. Perhaps, there are more complex things working together with these.
Scholz's star
70000 years ago a binary system a red dwarf and a brown dwarf. And it passed through the Oort cloud
Adrenaline can be addictive ?
Wonder if skydiving would help with depression ?
It's a practice run for a jumper... You want to encourage wrong minded actions?
So uranus and neptune were planets circling another star that our sun stole and the reason why they're magnetic poles are tilted different as their poles are still aligned as if they were still in orbit of their original star?
Since NO ONE has ever traveled “out there” to VERIFY, in real time, all of these distances, interactions, and calculations, I consider all this information, at best, educated theories on the best available information, and at worst, conjectures based upon again, best information and the knowledge and expertise of the theoretical physicists.
I don’t see how anyone can take these explanations as gospel truth.
Simple…..Because the speed of light is constant, and using Einstein’s E=MC2, and observations of position changes in objects over a certain period of time….It is quite easy to calculate these things….By the use of trigonometry, Calculus, Blue and Red Shift in light from distant objects, it isn’t really that difficult to work out very accurately, size, distance and orbits of objects!…..Using the light spectrum, it’s also not difficult to work out atmospheric compositions of distant Planets as well!….So, yes it is very possible to work out most of what you seem to think isn’t possible, simply because we haven’t physically been there…..A ridiculous statement in itself!
@@pikachu6031
So,
The speed of light is quite easy to calculate actually….If you understand anything about Physics and Mathematics, which you obviously don’t…..And, I suppose you’re one of those fools who believe the Moon Landings were faked, or that the Mars missions are all NASA lies and propaganda!….You’re nothing but a denier of provable scientific Facts, and deniers are nothing but idiots who don’t understand anything……Because they don’t understand it, they deny it or refuse to believe it, just like you!!!
Maybe some trans Neptunian objects came from close encounter from other stars ??? Sedna ??? Or interstellar objects captured by Earth's star's gravity ???
SCIENTISTS can 'believe' whatever they want.
The REST of "US" just wonder "WHEN" our iwn government decided to "HIDE" shit from the PEOPLE who made the 'Government' POSSIBLE in the first place😂
Computer models are for the most part, usually not accurate. Just look at the hilarious climate models that concluded Earth would be uninhabitable by 1990, 2000, 2010, 2020 and now 2030 (AOC said so and she’s smart)
No f'n way a star coming that close wasn't in the gravitational influence of the sun. No way.
Could the newly discovered Kuiper Belt objects be the start of the inner Oort Cloud or is that still too close?
Having a planet moving the opposite direction than the sun rotates, iss highly unlikely, The sun's gravity would slow it down, and force it to rotate with the spin of the sun I believe..
Wrong
@@parkerottoackley6325Please explain
Not at all.
I don't think so but have we ever found any planet orbiting the other way round a star? they all go the same way here
Did you even graduate university 😏
I am guessing you are not aware that the 'recent encounter' and 'planet 9' are mutually exclusive hypotheses.
The artwork with this video, showing space teeming with rocks, is highly misleading.
I think that some of the irregular moons are from the other stars Oort cloud. It would be interesting to have them visited and found out their age.
Not possible the sun gravity would have slung all the planets into outer orbits or into each other.
One of these retrograde satellites should be the target of future probes to collect samples for analysis. 5:14
This could finally disprove Planet 9
Maybe this is what Velikovsky was describing in his book 'Ages in Chaos'? Also tilts in Earth's and Uranus's axis?
It's possible.
What was that- Nibiru?!
More and more I'm starting to think the Sumerians were right about the Annunaki, the planet Nibiru and our binary star Nemesis.
I think this is clickbait
I think you're a bot...
Might it be that a rogue star has disrupted Uranus?
I think you’re another one with this “click bait” nonsense on the Brain!
@@steelcelt5939 I thought it was a mild touch of diarrhoea🙂
