Friends,

Although not variable star astronomy, this is a significant new result in the astronomical community: a team from Caltech just presented convincing theoretical evidence that there should be a ninth planet in our solar system, with predicted mass of ~10 times the mass of the Earth. Their press release is presented here:

Best wishes - clear skies,
