Do you think they're are other planets in our solar system, other then the 9 that has already been found ?

Oh of cause. As I am equally convinced we R not alone and that there are other forms of life out there beyond the stars.

it looks a little like earth 2 me

The definition of a planet is so arbitrary that, yes, I believe there are other densities of mass in our solar system that could be called planets.

Several, like Pluto, are regularly debated as it is.

interesting...

I just did a google search and found this information. I'm just going 2 pretend as if I know what they're talking about .

Where are the planets?


6 Billion™ is based in the Third Millennium, from 2001 to 3000 (see Per Ardua Ad Astra article). The planets will therefore have plenty of time to travel their orbits, and will thus be found in numerous configurations during this timeframe. If you don't have your own orrery, then I can recommend the online Solar System Live by John Walker.

Remember, when considering travel times between two planets, the destination planet could be on the far side of the Sun to planet of origin. Then you have to allow for whether each planet is at perihelion or aphelion. Still, using this as a rough guide (ignoring acceleration and deceleration), you should be able to visualise space ships travelling right across the Solar System!

So from reading this, it's like they're saying, even if there are other planets, it'll take some yrs 2 find it, because of the time n' travel in space.

I don't know why I'm obsessed with space and the solar system

I think it's very likely.
And I also consider it arrogant to assume that we're the only race of intelligent peeps in the universe.



Yay! edit.

becuase it makes all of man problems look tiny...like an insignificant speck on time and space...we humans are really pointless creatures

agreed

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.

Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.

Eric Idle
from Monty Python's Meaning Of Life

That solar system isn't quite to scale.
