The UNKNOWN Planet Between Mars and Jupiter | Phaeton
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 08. 2023
- Is there a missing planet between Mars and Jupiter? Over the years astronomers have been on the hunt for new giant worlds hiding in the shadows of our solar system. Such as the hypothetical Vulcan or Planet Nine. But there was another case where scientists did actually discover an object, that eventually led to the solar system having eleven major planets! This is the fascinating story of the Phaeton planet, the world that was discovered, destroyed and then forgotten.

Check out my latest video about Earth's other Moons! czcams.com/video/kISZc8T9pvY/video.htmlsi=qdDG-ubhFghFC7Ts
Moon Lilith...
is it another video where you literally just read the wikipedia article, like this one?
Ganymede would actually be classified as a Planet if it were orbiting the Sun rather than Jupiter.
Would not any moon that’s spherical and have cleared its orbital field?
@@mikeycrackson yes, but there’s nothing saying Mercury is the “minimum size” of a planet. I’m saying that any moon (not just Ganymede) that’s put into the same position as Ganymede (orbiting Sol, clear orbital field, and completely spherical due to gravity) would also be able to be classified as a planet. The fact that Ganymede is bigger than Mercury does not make it a planet itself, but rather the criteria I listed above.
Europa could be a planet if it has those criteria, alongside Callisto and Io. Miranda too, Iapetus, Triton, and more. That’s what I’m saying.
Other moons like Carme, Amalthea, Metis, Kerberos, etc. wouldn’t be planets if they orbited Sol and had a clear orbital path since they’re not spherical by gravity.
Ganymedenly is the only moon with a magnetic field. My favourite moon. Shame Phaeton isn't real. Would have been awesome to expand the Solar System. Perhaps we could finally give 2002 MS4 a name. Phaeton would be a good start, to keep the name alive, even though this potential dwarf planet is nowhere near the asteroid belt.
Is it Ceres' fault it's stuck in the asteroid belt?
@@mikeycrackson the only three criteria for something to be considered a planet is:
1. It must orbit the sun
2. It must have a spherical shape from its own gravity
3. It must have its “orbital neighborhood” clear
Pluto and Ceres do not have their orbital neighborhoods cleared, which is why they’re now considered dwarf planets. The only way size works into here is the minimum size a celestial body can be before it can round itself out into a spherical shape, which is a whole lotta physics that I don’t know or care for lol.
The point I’ve been trying to make all along is that the definition of a planet itself does NOT inherently depend on the size of the object.
If there was a celestial body orbiting the sun, that was also round, and also had its orbital neighborhood cleared, but was also smaller than Mercury, that body would still be considered a planet regardless. Size don’t matter in the definition.
The position of Neptune was predicted by the mathematician Urbain Le Verrier. He used 17 differential equations on the orbital perturbations of Uranus and Saturn. He announced his prediction in August 1846. Shortly after in September, the astronomer Johann Galle looked in a telescope where Neptune was predicted to be, and he found it.
Science has been advanced for quite some time.
Sorcery!!!
Math!
And what prerequisites was his formulas and equations based off of, good luck proving without an appeal to authority
@@retrayal4642 Try researching the internet. Also I was taught this at school. Moreover, to what authority do you appeal in replying to my comment? Furthermore your inebriate judgement applies to 99% of comments.
I always known it as Tiamat and the asteroid belt known as the hammerd bracelet, is actually the remnants approximately 1/3rd of Tiamat
And the other 2/3rds are now known as the planet Mercury, the Moon and the meteorites of the 'late heavy bombardment' from 4 billion years ago.
@@generalg.b.mcclellan3079Tiamat hit planet hit earth.
I was just about to ask this!❤
The parallel between the reclassification of Ceres and that of Pluto is very educational. I wonder how many people in the 1800's proclaimed that "Ceres will always be a planet" in their heart, no matter what the astronomers say ;)
Pluto is a hell of a lot bigger than Ceres, dude!
@@davidhess6593 Ceres is large enough to be in hydrostatic equilibrium. That's the only size that matters, dude! ;)
Dwarf planets are the cool kids' club anyway.
Pluto is only called a planet by American boomers lol
Old MURKKINZ dearly want something to be proud of, now that only 16% of their own grandkids are still patriotic
pluto's in my heart even though i was in 2016 and not 1800
Glad your channel isn't one of them AI clickbait space channels with sensational video titles and thumbnails Rob. Been watching for years now. Great content 👍🏻
Those channels are the worst!
@@jefffinkbonner9551 They certainly are!.
Sarcasm?
@@johnnylove2073 Why would it be sarcasm?.
I have always believed that the asteroid belt was many millions of years ago a planet. This planet was destroyed, by what I don't know, but a large amount of it was thrown out and became asteroids, with most of it being swallowed by Jupiter but the parts that were sent inward hit Mars and Earth. Only a small portion of the planet stayed in orbit in place of the once planets' original orbit.
Am I right? I don't know, but if so, it would answer a lot of questions.
It was the planet maldek(vulcan) that was (accidentally) destroyed by Nibiru a planet ship 5times the size of earth that entered this solar system. Maldek was a water planet with life on it. The inhabitants were reptoids. This true story became science fiction Star Trek and Marvel comics Submariner. It was recorded history in Mesopotamia Sumerian text.
Read John Brandenburg's books about Mars having evidence of a massive nuclear attack.
This is described in a book by Lou Baldin, MARS AND THE LOST PLANET MAN. It amazes me that astronomers try to estimate the size of Planet Man by the volume of the remaining rubble. Much of its original content was likely consumed by the vacuum cleaner of the solar system, Jupiter.
Why keple b planet is not ur halaxy
Yup. Good point.
Exactly. If it exploded, especially internally, it would've been blown in every direction outside of it's orbital path. That there are bits of it remaining within the path that represents the "belt" does nothing to disprove it's possibility of existence. Not to mention they KNOW that several of these asteroids have been observed to have a gravitational pull with each other whereas they've been observed literally orbiting around themselves. That's the kind of things only elements of a planet would exemplify
When Phaeton exploded, chunks went everywhere. One chunk in particular hit earth causing a mass extinction.
Looks like I'm not the only one who's always wondered if the asteroid belt actually comprised of the remnants of a destroyed planet between Mars & Jupiter
The combined mass of the asteroid belt is just 4% of the moon.
@@jonnyjackson6050 the other 96% could've crashed into other celestial objects
@@AifDaimon it could've been nicked by ET too.
All that's there is a mass 4% of the moon.
Scooped up by Jupiter during it's Grand Tack.
ABSOLUTELY MY FRIEND ❣️❣️❣️
CALL IT WHAT YOU MAY ***
THEORY OR JUST A BRAIN FART *** I WILL ABSOLUTELY CONTINUE TO CLAIM IT AS MY OWN ***
THAT'S MY STORY AND I'M STICKING TO IT ***
CAN YOU SMELL ME NOW ???
LOL ***
MY THEORY IS THAT THE PLANET WAS DESTROYED IN AN ANCIENT COSMIC WAR OF THE SO CALLED (( god's ))
Who’s to say the collision wasn’t so powerful that a lot of the mass got ejected out before being caught back into a steady rotation? 🤷🏼
Y'see, I say never mind time travel, PSHAW! Try developing time *viewing* so history all through time may be observed - ending so many debates, to the dismay of scientists' book agents - and let's SEE it.
This makes you wonder if the asteroid belt was in fact that planet and for whatever reason it blew up
I always thought that as a kid but I think there's nowhere near enough mass and the orbits would be more chaotic. Maybe geologists could correlate the asteroids with bombardments on Earth.
@@illustriouschin I was thinking about a theory about the formation of our moon. According to this, an object about the size of the moon crashed into earth. What if that object was the biggest chunk of that destroyed planet?
Not nearly enough mass there
@@Timberwolf69, I think that theory involved a collision of the earth and a planet about the size of Mars.
Possibly. My memory is a little hzay about the details.
I sometimes wonder if the asteroid belt is the remnants of an early planet that had a highly elliptical orbit, shattered by too close an approach to Jupiter, with the largest remaining part striking primordial Earth and creating our Moon. That body, largely accepted by the scientific community was dubbed Thea.
I actually saw one theory that sort of combined the Phaeton-Thea ideas to give a reasonably-sized fifth planet.
Add Thea to the rest of the asteroid belt, and you're adding the mass of a Mars-sized object, which gives a decent planet or even planet and satellites.
The theory basically had Jupiter's gravity manage to pull Thea out of orbit, leaving the rest of the asteroid belt material behind, they suggested two moons which collided and formed the bodies we see today.
Thea then eventually hit the proto-Earth, forming the Earth and Moon as they exist today.
If I'm not mistaken, they even blamed Venus' odd rotation on interactions with Thea before it hit Earth.
It was fascinating, but I've no idea how likely or the probable it was.
The moon was formed when another planet hit the first earth. That is why it orbits as if it was part of this planet, with one side always facing us.
@@frenchfriar I happen to think you may well be correct. It certainly sounds plausible.
Enuma Elish creation story is not mentioned here it would answer a lot of the questions many have been asking
Re: "The moon was formed when another planet hit the first earth". Could only imagine how cataclysmic that would have been. @@gglenn7920
I assume the largest asteroids including Ceres, Pallas, & Vesta are also included in the hypothetical Phaeton of such small mass? All the Trojans? (All those are pretty small, too). What of the possibility much of Phaeton’s alleged mass if not most of it was sucked into Jupiter’s gravity well with the rest disappearing as meteorites smashing into Mars, Earth, Luna, & elsewhere? How would one even estimate the quantity of mass hypothetically gobbled up by Jupiter?
The Titius-Bode law is no coincidence. It lined up with far too many planets to be so dismissed. Neptune is simply an outlier to the norm. Which begs the question of why. And yes, Ceres, Eris and Pluto-Charon absolutely are planets by any consistent definition. They are round. They just happen to be a different sub-class of planet from the “gas giants”.
I 'discovered' this pattern myself, while making a scale model of the solar system. It is also interesting that the distance from Saturn tp Uranus, and Uranus to Neptune, are 10 au. We should consider how the distances may be affected if one planet is missing, and whether the planets were or are moving in or out to compensate. I am pretty sure there is a pattern and reasons for the distances, and they are not just where they are by luck.
@@itoibo4208 the lack of a planet being missing and the fact that planetary positions take a long time to actually change/adjust to what would compensate would make up for it easily. we could just be observing the planets adjusting themselves orbit/distance wise. the size of the planets that far out could also be a factor as to why they're slightly more distant. the Titius-Bode law lines up a lot of small to average size planets but then you get into the larger ones and the distance is slightly off.
I theorized that millions of years ago, Neptune had maybe 75 big moons(and dwarf planets, including Pluto) and they sling shotted themselves to Uranus causing it to severely wobble it’s axis. Several other moons and dwarves travelled to beyond Pluto’s location.
Pluto is not a planet because the center of gravity between it and its moon is not inside pluto. Maybe another "destroyed" planet that coalesced into two bodies.

In the 5th grade (in 1965) I remember getting a weekly reader that was about the asteroid belt. My first thought was “ it looked like a planet blew up and it’s parts were caught in its orbit”. Sometimes first and simplest impression and explanations are the best…. “Science”, over the course of my lifetime, has rarely been accurate or reliable. I’m banking on a destroyed planet….
The great thing of a "true" science is it's ability to adapt and improve it's subtle ability in terms of greater accuracy and understanding. Error is a great teacher in eliminating the less pertinent and adding to the more relevant. Or not.. Science is not to be trusted, but it beats blind faith.
The rocks from the great bombardment had to come from somewhere.
This was an in-depth study of something I’ve never heard of. I go to planetarium’s. I have my telescope, and I’ve never heard of this history. Very good study.
Logical Flaw: if something happened, it is highly unlikely all the material would have remained in orbit. Therefore, the current asteroidal mass would be expected to be less than orihinal... perhaps far less. Most would have been either ejected or fallen into other bodies.
According to what principle? How do you know it's "all the material"?
@@Noitisnt-ns7mothats his point. IF something happened then "all the material" that we see would not be "all the material" originally there.
I imagine he makes this argument based on Newtons laws of motion, which would make sense
Exactly, and we know that one side of Mars is littered with craters while the other side is mostly fine, and look how badly bashed the moon Iapetus is...
If you blow something up, most of it isn't gonna stay in place.
A bunch of cave men with morals & brains of A mouse concluded this😂
Have always wondered what would be the combined mass of *every* object in the asteroid belt...and then once combined into a singular object, what would be the size of that object
Presuming that such an object did once exist, then suffered catastrophic impact and destruction, one must also add the mass of every piece expelled to impact other planets or exit our solar system altogether
My theory is that a planet did once exist between Mars and Jupiter, and that Mars once supported life as we know it but was pummeled with the debris of the now extinct planet
It's entirely possible mars once had life. However the reason it is no longer there is that the planet does not have enough mass to maintain a magnetic field. Over eons the atmosphere, and water with it was stripped away by solar wind, leaving the desert we see today.
Equally plausible that being bombarded continuously by the remnants of a destroyed planet will strip your planet of it's water, trigger global volcanic eruptions and open a chasm deep enough and long enough to vent out a major portion of your molten core... effectively leaving small remnants of a once global magnetic field
This is what I was thinking, too. The total mass of the asteroid belt could merely be some of the “remaining” mass of the original object, the rest having impacted other planets, mainly Jupiter.
The asteroid belt was once a planet roughly twice the size of earth that had 4 moons. It was destroyed along with the civilization that inhabited it. Ceres and Vesta were 2 of the 4 moons that survived.
@@cyberwasp3289Any evidence to support your rather far fetched claims?
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO! GREAT PRODUCTION, STRAIGHT TO THE POINT, ACTUALLY LEARN SOMETHING USEFUL - I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!
You do great storytelling about the topic; following you since long time - thank you for the great content.
Likely the asteroid belt was probably a planet that didn't survive the early stages of the solar system's development. I mean it has to be since many of the asteroids do share some of the same characteristics found in other planets that have a core and a surface (not gas giants).
Every since I was a kid I loved space science...I always felt like there was suppose to be a planet between Mars n Jupiter..ur the best space channel Rob..👌👌💙💙
According to the Dolores Cannon books Convoluted Universe series, the people who lived on the planet were conducting war based experiments and blew up their planet by accident.
The planet was known as Tiamat. It’s said some of the peoples made it to Earth. That part is probably, maybe, not truth..?!
It was also known as Maldek.
@@gregholmes1289 Yes I have heard that it was Maldek or Tiamat too. It sure is interesting isn’t it? I wish we knew the real history of the Universe.
@@Tanacarroll Full disclosure, when it comes, would include the real history of the Universe. I recommend reading "The Seeders" by Elena Danaan.
@@gregholmes1289 I’ve been wanting full disclosure for years now. I will check out the book. Thanks! 🙂
Early reporting team checking in; excellent way to start the weekend 🙌
Clearly the missing planet is now the asteroid belt.
If it had been a massive collision is it possible the missing mass to warrant it being a planet was ejected from that particular orbit?
I came here to day the same thing.
I wonder when scientist calculated the mass of the asteroid belt not big enough to form a planet, if they took into account the two moons of Mars and all the asteroids that have hit all the inner planets, moon and sun?
@@sullyway51 Or just some.e fragments that got away because of other planatoids at the time.
Great video as always! Love it!
5:20 so cool to see those images of Pallas and Juno in your video. Our team obtained them with the SPHERE imager on the Very Large Telescope in Chile :) Great video!
What this theory does not consider is could have a large part of the destroyed planet Phaeton been 'swept up' by Jupiter gravity or thrown out toward the rest of the solar system becoming comets? Of course we will never know but... we can still dream about it, write about such events and read the stories of those that did.
Great job as always Rob!!!!!!!
Fascinating....as always. Thank you.
Hope you and Rolo have a great weekend. 🇺🇸❤🇬🇧
Really informative, learned something new. Thank you!
Just amazing. Your videos always makes me think about our amazing universe.
The commentary is amazing. Feels good watching this before sleeping.
Appreciate your efforts and impeccable quality content thanks for all your efforts! We find your amazing channel full of interesting facts & items about planets & deep space ,many cool topics & so well articulated explanations! Cheers my friend!🤝🏼✌🏼💫
Fun connection: Ceres is where we get the word 'cereal'.
Cruising the comments in the opening of this video and seeing stellar reviews. Subscribed 👍🏼 now to relax and enjoy this
Whatever destroyed the planet that became the asteroid belt, could have scattered most of it out of the solar system.
When I was a kid I came across a science fiction story which had a quote supposedly by Kepler of "Between Mars and Jupiter, I shall put a planet." I can't remember the name.
Great story telling and perfect marstion tempo 👍🏼 earned a subscriber.
I always enjoy and learn from V101 and Rob your voice is epic ❤
Interesting story of former thinking. Very much appreciate the thought process. I could only do much worse! Thanks for bringing this into the present day!
Awesome video ! I love it so much . Thank you for sharing . If there are 10 planets , there are also 10 days in one week , I think . Happy week to you !
I vote that any new planet discovered should be named V101 🙌🏼
Helo Rob, Good Morning to u. M watching this video today . And it's fantastic really 😊
An interesting foil to the commonly accepted origin of the Asteroid Belt (should be called Phaeton's Bones) is the fact that the major asteroids are accretions of similar composition.. as if they are remnants of pre-stratified construction (like a planet or moon).
like the name, "Phaeton's Bones".
There is a possibility that Ceres migrated into its current position from the Kuiper Belt, the home of Pluto and its fellow Plutinos. Both are “Dwarf” Planets.
A fascinating presentation. Absolutely loved it.
How do we know everything in the asteroid belt is what would be left over of a hypothetical Phaeton? It could be a mere fraction of what's left over, with the remainder being ejected. All we can know for sure is that the creation of our solar system is far more complicated than our current understanding of it.
Yes okay, what we see now fits that explanation, but what if a collision sent a lot of the supposed planet out to be moons trapped by the gas and ice giants as well as vaporising a good portion of it? It does seem implausible that all the surrounding planets coalesced, but these asteroids did not. We may find out in the future when they are explored better. What, for instance, caused Uranus to have such an unusual tilt?
You should make separate videos on other hypothetical planets.
This is the fascinating story of the Phaeton planet, the world that was discovered, destroyed and then forgotten.
Most of the Theories of those pseudo science space experts about space and universe are only Made up of Stories, Assumption and Wild Imaginative Guess..
Beltalowdas Unite!
Why does it have to orbit sun? I though planets are classified based on their size for one.
I do enjoy tthe idea of the asteroid belt being Phaeton torn apart by Jupiter. Since, in mythology, Zeus struck Phaeton from the heavens and Jupiter is the Roman equivalent of Zeus there is something poetical rattling around in there. And we all need a little poetry in our lives, right? 😊
@@Silvblade79 ...because if it orbits a planet then it is a satellite, regardless of whether it has enough mass to pull itself into a sphere. Hence Ganymede is a satellite as it orbits Jupiter yet it has a larger diameter than Mercury.
It’s funny that they depict the asteroid belt as one gigantic ring orbiting the sun. When in fact, these rocks are so far apart that you won’t see the closest one next to it if you happen to land on one.
Also the planet did not form because it was being pulled apart by Jupiter’s gravity.
👍👍❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍 thanks for the video. Best wishes ❤️ ❤️
According to Sumerians writings. The fifth and four planet collided. It merged to re-create the four planet. What happened to the rest of the material is unknown. As they had no way to determine that.
I made a whole story about this concept as a child years ago.
Good story between this planet and the now long dead Mars as we know it now.
Great concept.
I should update that story.
The Sumerians called it Marduk, and said that it was destroyed by a passing object on a long elliptical orbit, leaving behind the field of debris we see today. Some theorize that the destruction of Marduk is also what gave us our moon (many early writings describe an Earth before there was a moon, not just the Sumerians), as well as caused the scar on Mars that essentially killed that planet entirely.
Marduk is Jupiter. The fifth planet is Tiamat.
🐉R.I.P. Tiamat 🐉
The true 5th planet is known to some as Maldek. It was our original home until it was destroyed in an atomic war. Later on we were given permission to incarnate here around 18,600,000 years ago.
💚
There is still the Mystery what happened to Mars, why does his Surface looks scared? One Theory is that Debris from an exploding Planet hit Mars in the distant Past.
I think all of the planets have a tragic backstory from their pasts
That was good. Thanks for sharing.
"Uranus" Always gets me😅, anyways i have watched the Expanse series, visual imagination of how these moons, planets, astreriods and even man-made cities so called the "belt" can be imagined!!
The biggest object in the Asteroid Belt, Ceres, is by itself about one third of the total mass of all the objects in the belt combined. And that mass is very tiny...
Ceres could have been a moon of the 5th planet.
keep the clips coming
Makes you wonder what if ceres was discovered orbiting by itself or at least the size ratio between it and other objects was a lot bigger.
Would it be classed as a planet back then?
There was a brief moment when it was discovered that it was.
Yes it would be called a planet.
The scar on Mars would be the impact of that planet.
Found you on bing just scrolling videos. Came over here to drop a sub because this was made very well and was extremely informative. Put history channel out of business king.
This is my first time ever when i've heared about Phateon, it would be really interesting if there is a secret planet between Jupiter and Mars. There's a real 5th planet and maybe 9th planet is real too. 😮
I doubt it, we would have detected it by now, unless you count the 9th planet as an asteroid or a strangely big comet.
@@MapBotTheElsagateKiller that's a good point of you
It seems like many people are unaware of dwarf planet Ceres between Jupiter and Mars, so I suppose it could be considered "secret" due to people's lack of awareness.
The theoretical Planet X, if it exists, hasn't been discovered yet because of how far out it is and how dark it is out there. We just can't see it. So until we have a model that can predict where it might be, there's not much chance of finding it. Just my view on it.
Planet 9 exists, it's called Pluto.
Not funny
@@aprilhaynes2433
its hilarious
What if jupiter tore the hypothetical planet apart and it's remenece formed around jupiter as it's many large moons?
Great and interesting video as always 😀
Hi
Awesome video.
Thanks.
This kind of content science is inspiring.
Maybe the asteroid belt is merely the remaining pieces of a shattered planet, the rest having impacted into Jupiter.
Awesome Video
One of the legends states that Phaeton was inhabited many, many millions of years ago. The people of that planet, for some unknown reason diverted some of it's ocean water to the interior of the planet. Maybe to produce power? At any rate they ended up causing a catastrophic explosion which destroyed the planet forming the asteroid belt we see today.
THE LORE
I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve watched your videos on “Falling in to the gas giants”
lol I might make an updated version of those videos, with better effects etc It's one hell of a journey! V
I’ve read (can’t remember where) that there was a planet but it got caught by Jupiter and destroyed by its immense gravity
I always thought the asteroid belt used to be a planet
I agree with Olbers, and too think the asteroid belt is the remains of a destroyed planet. The fact that the mass of debris combined would amount to a planet smaller than our Moon scuttles my thought that humans originated from there when they (long ago) destroyed their planet.
If there was a 5th planet in between Mars and Jupiter that broke up, maybe a lot of the fragments were swallowed by Jupiter over the possible billions of years since it happened.
A thought I had is what if there was a major planet there, but Mars was a moon of that planet? Mars has an unusually low density, being closer to the moons of the system than the rocky planets. It's surface does have signs of being struck by something really large in it's ancient past, and its orbit around the sun is quite different than the other planets. So my idea was a theoretical big planet that existed between Earth and Jupiter that was struck by a very large object and shattered. Mars survives and settles into it's unusual orbit, and the remaining bits of planet that didn't get flung around the solar system settled in the now asteroid belt. The problem with my idea is that there's still very little mass there in the belt; the majority of the theoretical world would have to be flung out of the solar system or crash into Jupiter to work.
The greek myth of fatan (phaton?) is the same myth contained in the ancient Sumerian writings about Nibiru. Nibiru had moons and one of its moons got too close to the ORIGINAL earth, and collided with it cleaving the original earth, half becoming the astroid belt, and the half that was left became the current earth and was placed in its new (current) orbit.
Tiamat, the giant water planet.
Awesome video
I think Phaeton did exist and that perhaps a large asteroid impact caused it to somehow end up falling into Jupiter leaving only a small percentage of it behind. (the belt) IMO, Phaeton's core is inside Jupiter.
No..... It is Mercury !
Always preferred the name Minerva for this planet
Actually, nemesis was discovered years ago,but they named it Eris (not sure about the spelling), and it's red dwarf sun was given the name nemesis. We live in a binary sun system, and the above-mentioned is in an elliptical orbit.
What universe are you from?
😆😆
Enuma Elish creation story is not mentioned here it would answer a lot of the questions many have been asking...
Not gonna lie but i giggled at “ when william Herschel spotted Uranus in 1781” part.🤣
Very interesting!
Brilliant ❤
Interesting video👍😍❤️
Facinating!
This is cool!
But I still can’t not laugh hearing Uranus in any context
may be was a planet or something like that in the past , and still engrave in the collective memory of humanity
No ninth planet discovered beyond Neptune? Reaaaaaaaly?
I suck at math so I can't verify if this is correct, but imagine that you are looking at a picture of the moon that is 10 cm in diameter, a planet that has 4% of the size of the moon would be 0.4 cm in diameter... right? maybe? If that is the case I think the image comparison at 9:01 may not be very accurate.
Regardless, very interesting subject! even made me engage ChatGPT for quite some time! lol Thank you!!! =)
It has 4% the mass of the moon, think of volume of a sphere. At 10cm diameter that would make it 5cm radius, which is used in the equation. That would mean 4% of the mass would equate to roughly 1.7cm radius, or ~3.4cm diameter...about one third the diameter of the moon. I think it looks pretty accurate.
Well done
Always believed the asteroid belt was most likely a planet that got hit and destroyed, suppose it’s possible that a chunk of said planet could have ended colliding with earth
