Interesting News items
A direct collision might not be so likely?
An interesting read
An interesting update on the search, in the early solar system an ice giant or two being flung out to the outer solar system
seems very likely, and interactions with nearby stars could lead to a stable distant orbit.
New study suggests how wide-orbit planets form, supporting existence of Planet Nine
One big comet
Amazing first start
