Some believe these forces could be caused by an undiscovered ninth planet—but if Planet 9 is real, why haven’t we found it yet? And if it doesn’t exist, what else could be shaping the outer edge of our solar system? Have you ever wondered if there's a hidden planet lurking in our solar system? Recent research suggests that Planet 9 might be more than just a myth! With groundbreaking evidence from the latest studies, we’re on the brink of discovering something that could change our understanding of the cosmos. Here today to explore this issue and reveal extraordinary new evidence of Planet 9, is none other than Konstantin Batygin, one of the world’s foremost experts in this field. A professor at Caltech, Konstantin specializes in planetary astrophysics, the formation and evolution of the solar system, orbital dynamics, exoplanet behavior, and the physics of planetary interiors and atmospheres. In this episode, he not only breaks down the latest evidence for Planet Nine but also shares his thiughts on the controversial discovery and why some say he is wrong. You will also hear his insights from his research on Jupiter’s magnetic field. Plus, Konstantin gave us exclusive permission to feature his lecture on these topics—an unmissable opportunity to learn from one of the best in the field!
