Planet Nine in inner space?

In 1959, Valiant Pictures unleashed upon the world Plan Nine from Outer Space, a throat-sucking space vampire picture. So awe-inspiring was the movie, that in 1980, “authors Harry and Michael Medved dubbed the film the ‘worst movie ever made’ in their book
The Golden Turkey Awards. Wood and his film were posthumously given two Golden Turkey Awards for Worst Director Ever and Worst Film.”

Not so fast, Medveds. It could be science is imitating art (or versa vice, as is appropriate).

“Planet Nine: Theories About the Hypothetical Planet”

By Nola Taylor Redd

“A massive ice giant may be traveling through the outer solar system. Dubbed ‘Planet Nine,’ the hypothetical world was proposed to exist after scientists noticed that a handful of objects beyond Pluto had been shaken up in unusual orbits. Search parties have formed to find the unseen planet, with optimistic hopes of spotting it within a year.

"’It's not crazy; this is the kind of stuff people are finding all the time,’ co-discoverer Mike Brown, at the California Institute of Technology, told Space.com earlier this year. Brown and lead author Konstantin Batygin, also at CalTech, published a paper in January 2016 suggesting that a massive planet could be stirring up the icy bodies of the Kuiper Belt, a ring of material at the edge of the solar system.

"We just need to go out and cover a good swath of the sky."

(I don’t think Brown means “go out there” in his “go out there” statement, but rather take a long, long look out there. Or, maybe he gives “go out there” literal meaning.)

Pluto has been de-planetized, so maybe Planet Nine can take its place.
