"Astronomers are so sure of the 10th planet they think there is nothing left to do but to name it." Ray T. Reynolds, NASA (NASA press release, 1992). NASA have nicknamed it "Planet Nine," could have a mass about 10 times that of Earth and orbit about 20 times farther from the Sun on average than Neptune.

Back in 1972, NASA launched the space probe Pioneer 10, its main goal was to search for a mysterious 10th planet in our Solar System or just beyond. This search led NASA to make a surprising press release 20 years later.

In March 1992 NASA released a press interview claiming, "unexplained deviations in orbits of Uranus and Neptune points to a large outer solar system body "4 to 8" Earth masses on a highly tilted orbit,  beyond 7 billion miles from the sun. In the past few decades, astronomers have joined the search, looking for 1 more planet in our solar system. They named the elusive object, Planet X, meaning both unknown and 10. "Astronomers are so sure of the 10th planet they think there is nothing left to do but to name it." Ray T. Reynolds, NASA (NASA press release, 1992).

But we have to go back even earlier to try and understand just what NASA was looking for. Sixty years ago, on April 1, 1960, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) launched TIROS-1, the world’s first successful meteorological satellite. It was a great success for the fledgeling NASA which had been formed in October 1958 after the former Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite to be successfully placed in orbit around Earth on October 4, 1957, which, resulted in the space race between the USA and the Soviet Union. That is the official story, however, the true story is actually shrouded in intrigue and mystery.

Two months after the Russian Sputnik 1 was launched an event on our Sun occurred which left the science community to this day baffled. The USSR launched Sputnik 1, their first artificial satellite in space on October 1957, followed by Explorer 1, on January 31, 1958, the first satellite launched by the United States. However, a month earlier, something happened on our Sun on the 24th and 25th of December 1957 which defies logic, defies physics and science even to this day.

Our Sun went crazy, ballistic, a record number of sunspots, (503) crackled away on our Sun for two days. The period described above was solar cycle 19, the nineteenth solar cycle since 1755 when extensive recording of solar sunspot activity began. According to NASA, solar cycle, 19 lasted 10.5 years, beginning in April 1954 and ending in October 1964, about average for a full solar cycle. The number of sunspots witnessed on the Sun during Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 1957 (503), however, was anything but average and alarmed scientists so much at the time, that an International Geophysical Year was declared at the peak of this solar cycle to bring the Russian and US scientists onto the same page to try and find an answer to the phenomena, after the cold-war silence.

Something crazy happened here on Earth too!
