Once knowing their mass and distance, it's a simple matter of running

Public funded supercomputer simulators of 3D interactive stellar
motions should be doing this for us.

 Guess my tired old idea of relocating our Selene/moon out to Earth L1
is another one of those too little too late sort of things.  Sorry
about that.

is another one of those too little too late sort of things.  Sorry
about that.  Of course there's always obfuscation and mainstream
denial that's so much easier to deal with, and a whole lot cheaper.
And, lets not waste any talent or resources on understanding the
implications of what closing in on the Sirius Star/solar system might
represent.

Although, try to imagine what it was like when Sirius-B was in her
prime.

Mainstream physics and science is not to be lightly discounted or
otherwise discarded.  However, some items of our solar system seem to
have been added after the original formations of our sun and a few
planets, while others seem badly skewed because of nearby external
forces.  It seems +/- 1 degree might be an acceptable standard for
being part of the original protoplanetary elliptic plane.  However,
the more degrees off that plane, the more unlikely they existed from
the very start of our solar system.

Like those icy Pluto planetoids and Sedna at near 12 degrees most
certainly are not in the same plane.  However, supposedly there are a
few interesting Kuiper and Oort retrograde orbits, although Sedna
isn't one of those.  Noteworthy is that Cruithne has been a nearby
second moon of Earth, however oddly so and otherwise at nearly 20
degrees inclination  is also not within the expected orbital plane,
just like our Selene/moon at 5+ degrees isn’t exactly flying within
the expected plane of our solar system.

Besides the usual orbital mechanics that can’t quite explain items
like Sedna with such minimal velocity and low density, as to why the
hell does Sedna bother to turn itself around and head way the hell
back out there? (are the Sedna electrons helping to repel it away from
those of our solar system electron outflux?)

With Sedna we're talking of an extremely deep elliptical trek of 76 AU
out to 976 AU and obviously back again, at an average orbital velocity
of 1.04 km/sec (about the same as our Selene/moon), with an overall
duration of <12,060 years (also given as >10,000 years by some), as
supposedly offering the 0.84 eccentric orbit in relationship
