Like Newly discovered Jupiter-like world could be the long-sought ‘Planet X’ (the next web)December 20, 2020 at 7:21 PM When the Hubble Space Telescope set its sights toward the binary star system HD 106906, astronomers found a world that could resemble the long-sought Planet X. For the first time, astronomers are able to view a massive Jupiter-like world orbiting far from its parent star. The planet is visible orbiting at a distance beyond the debris field surrounding the stellar furnace. Such a world would resemble the hypothesized Planet X, thought by some astronomers to orbit beyond Neptune in our own solar s...Tags: News, Jupiter, Hubble Space Telescope, Neptune, The Cosmic Companion 5 people like this.
