The UNKNOWN Planet Hiding Behind the Sun | Antichthon

Is there a planet hiding on the other side of the sun? directly behind our star? For centuries astronomers have been on the hunt for new giant worlds lurking in the shadows of the solar system. Such as the hypothetical Vulcan, the elusive Planet Nine and Pheaton the missing planet said to exist between Mars and Jupiter. But what about in a region that we cannot see from Earth? The opposite side of the Sun? Could there be an unknown planet there? This is the fascinating theory of the Antichthon planet.

Ever wondered if there is a planet directly behind the Sun? Hiding on the opposite side of our star? This is the counter-Earth theory.

[@Shaden0040]

In the first season of Doctor Who such a planet was theorized and it was called Mondas It was the planet of the cyberman. Excuse me let the first season but the first incarnation of the doctor William Hartnell.

[@Extermination_Activated]

No. I'm still wondering about the moon landing.

[@thedarkknight1971]

This reminds me of the classic SciFi film 'Journey to the far side of the Sun' - 1969, where another Earth is found orbiting the Sun exactly oposite side of the Sun, and an Astronaut is sent to this second Earth, but, he finds it is a carbon copy of our Earth but, everything is reversed (writing, wiring (positive & negative) etc etc). It's a GOOD film! 🤔😏👍 😎🇬🇧

[@truearmy1953]

Time waste video. World's [number of views of this video * 9 minutes] would have been saved if you did not make this video. You accumulated sin in your karma!

[@trex2621]

No, there is nothing of planet or minor planet size there. Nothing, that could cause measurable disturbances in Venus's or Mars' orbit. Having even somewhat smaller rock there is unlikely as L3 is not so stable and Earths own orbit hasn't been stable either since its formation. So there is no plausible mechanism, how something could have been ended up there and remained there.

[@moxnix1026]

There was a movie back in the 70's about a planet like that. Where everything was mirrored. We sent a ship and so did they at the exact same time. Something like that.

[@LetGaiaLive]

I think that movie was called Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun (also called Doppelgänger in some countries). Jerry Anderson (Thunderbirds etc.) had something to do with it, if I remember correctly.

[@MarcoLandin]

@@LetGaiaLiveYes, and the best scene was when the astronaut discovered he was in the Mirror Earth, by looking at words in the mirror and realizing they were normal! My 10-year old self watching this late-night B movie flipped out!

[@videolabguy]

Yes. Another ghastly catastrophe by Gerry Anderson. Worst sci fi producer ever.

[@thedarkknight1971]

'Journey to the far side of the Sun' - 1969.. Yeah it was a good film! 👍 😎🇬🇧

[@jetsetsabreena4769]

There was a movie a few yrs ago that is back on HULU is called Another Earth.

[@Hobbes746]

That is not a theory. It’s a hypothesis that has been disproven. 1. we have spacecraft far away from Earth that can see the region that is blocked from our view. 2. long before that, we did the math, and found that two planets cannot share the same orbit: this is an unstable system and one of the planets would quickly be ejected from the system.

[@ViktorBorgGrelsson]

yea im unsubbing this channel lol

[@williamrbuchanan4153]

We are told . With a tiny kids computer still sending data .We can’t make sense of ? Children we are not . So it is not acceptable truth.

[@Hobbes746]

@@williamrbuchanan4153 The math for orbital mechanics is available to anyone. The data from satellite missions that observe the sun is published, and accessible to anyone.

[@virginiaanndavidson178]

@@Hobbes746- hey! I am in full agreement with your comment (in fact your second point is why Pluto was demoted), however - James Webb might be uncovering (for the first time) proof that planets may be able to share the same orbit, thus rendering the prerequisite of “clearing an orbit” (again, why Pluto was demoted) to be considered for a planet somewhat less objective but only time will tell!

It's very possible that our early chaotic solar system had many other planets and moons ejected by the larger gas and ice giants in a gravitational battle for a place in our system.

[@jasonwebb1882]

I would have to say it's not impossible for a planet to be behind the sun, but I would find it to be highly improbable.

[@nexpro6985]

It is impossible because we would have detected it long ago.

[@martywebb1487]

Don't they rotate in a circle so whatever side were on and can see the other side is technically behind right ..I'm curious on why u say.....if they are spheres flying in circles 17thousand miles n hr or whatever they say

What if we are on the counter Earth, and the real Earth is on the other side of the sun, yet to be discovered by us, here on the counter earth?

[@AceSpadeThePikachu]

Well, there WAS a "Counter-Earth" around the size of Mars about 4 billion years ago. It was called Thiea. Due to the gravitational instabilities mentioned in the video, the young Earth and Thiea collided, leading to the formation of The Moon. And now parts of Thiea are inside both the Earth and The Moon.

[@loganshaw4527]

Ya it stills bothers the alt reality planet people. Earth has tried making a new planet out of the asteroids and small moon like bodies as a result to the missing planet in that ar.

[@twelved4983]

Hey, Rob! Love the work! By the way, have you ever heard of the story of “Zoozve?” I came across a Twitter thread discussing this, and honestly, it’s a pretty fun and interesting read!

[@brendacunningham5070]

Thank You For This Information 💚💚💚💚🦅🦅🦅🦅

[@julienstgeorge644]

As far as my understanding goes..the planets trail after the sun in a spiral formations, as the sun leads in the journey. If it is that the sun was stationary then only, this would be possible. Again, this is to my present understanding. Feel free to educate me further 👍🏻

Nibiru they said.. Planet x

[@SpooksDinat]

So no Counter-Earth like in theshort lived animated series Spider-Man Unlimited? And here I was kinda excited to see an anthropomorphic Giraffe driving a hover truck..

Even if the hidden planet was tidally locked to the sun i think we would have found it by now !

[@sterlingsimmons2212]

We, don't even know what's at the bottom of the ocean, or only 10% of the ocean creatures. We know only probably about .1% of what exists in our solar system.

There was a movie done some time back called "Journey to the far side of the sun" or Doppelganger 69 I beleive it was. It was pretty much the same idea with some intersting things happen.

Yep, that's the one, was a great movie, well, I enjoyed it! 😏👍 😎🇬🇧

[@birenkumarg6663]

Good thought. Two questions,why only counter earth, why not counter Mars or Venus or other planets. Have we ever found two planets at same path while watching another planetary system like proxima or other.

[@lillifuchs]

that would be amazing and cool :D

[@phi-ws8mz]

I think we would have found it by now.

[@lolatank8328]

Fa sure we can’t find how to peacefully coexist without destroying sources but we would have find it now. Dude we’re not the smartest

[@user-xs3sj3em6u]

That was the premise of the 'Gor' novels, which based the idea on the original theory of the PythaGOReans of a 'Counter-Earth' on the other side of the sun

[@user-hh3jq2zy7e]

Am really interested in it

[@satanofficial3902]

"Uranus" was mispronounced. A gold star sticker for anyone who PROPERLY pronounces "Uranus". Not everyone does.

[@Ettenyl56jioni]

Could it even be possible that what we think we know about how our solar system operates could be in error? The ancients were not just making up fanciful notions. Every theory about our cosmos and physics from Copernicus to Galileo, then from Newton to Einstein has been updated by a better understanding through the use of more advanced interstellar instrumentation that provides a clearer window into how our solar system and galaxy operates.

[@ericlipps9459]

The counter-Earth idea has long since been discarded even in science fiction, although it crops up from time to time in comic books (and at least one comic-book TV spinoff I know of).

[@robertjohnsontaylor3187]

There was a hole series of sci-fi books based on a planet exactly on the opposite side of the Sun known as “Gore”

[@JynxedKoma]

Well, it was a pretty clever idea. Unfortunately, the forces of gravity conspire to make this hidden planet idea completely impossible. Most importantly, when someone tells you there's a hidden planet on the other side of the Sun, just remember these words: No.

[@no-oneyou-know1117]

Ultimately, this all adds up to there not being enough gravity effects on the solar system for there to be a planet we can't see

[@copperjacket00]

I thought of something behind the sun many years ago , I thought what a good place to hide something BIG

[@antonywooster6783]

1:42 It occurs to me that one way to check the hypothesis that there is a planet hiding behind the Sun, would be to put an automatic observatory on Mars or, probably more easily, to put a telecope, like a much simpler version of Hubble, into an orbit around the Sun, either inside or outside the Earth's orbit.

[@Greippi10]

It has been done multiple times. The Parker Solar probe for example. Or really any probe sent beyond Earth's influence.

[@antonywooster6783]

[@cyberninja6798]

Lately many have captured on cameras and videos, something is definitely by the sun.

[@android65mar]

The definition of a planet now commonly accepted is that it is an object that keeps its orbital pathway clear- which kind of suggests there is no theoritical possibility of such a planet existing

[@timothyvanhoeck233]

Well, there are such things as trojan asteroids, but this is on a whole other level and defies gravitational physics as we know them altogether.

[@MausMasher54]

Easy way to find out if there are any hidden planets, send satellites above & below our orbital elliptic....

[@wdd3141]

The idea that there is a counter-Earth is to me absurd. Why Earth? Couldn't there be a counter-Mars? A counter-Saturn? etc. No such planets have ever been seen, and their eventual appearance in our sky would have been inevitable.

[@katrinasimard8260]

My theory is there was once one but had drifted away by our time

[@JoeNielsen44]

What's most interesting 🤔🧐 is that ancient civilizations had all our modern planets accounted for and even recorded them in stone for us to see!

[@KaosRunes]

I propose there us a hidden planet beyond Pluto in the kuiper belt.

[@ronaldpalmer5903]

that's why there's Kem trails

[@highwindsclarke2685]

The unknown planet hiding behind the sun was featured in the movie Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun. It was an exact duplicate of the Earth, but everything was reversed.

[@MyemailIsnotallowed-mv5cp]

[@be_a_bright_sparkle3687]

I’ve always thought there’s planets at the other side of the sun…tidal locked so we can’t see them…could they be alternative universes…people always think I’m crazy when I say this….but we don’t really know what we think we know…😂

[@joshdickinson1951]

Or our world is bigger than we anticipated. With more lands behind the Antarctica ice ring around the known world behind the ice wall.

[@deathmetal11111]

So wait...I just can't wrap my head around this. Philolaus invented some invisible fire that the Earth rotated around...instead of just using that very big, very visible ball of fire in the sky?

[@y2kmagna]

If there really is another planet in our system hiding behind the sun, it would only be possible if it maintained a synchronized orbit with Earth, a highly improbable occurrence.

[@BrandanTheBroker]

Have we ever actually answered the question of how many planets could a star sized like our sun hold in its gravitational pull?

[@DaDaDo661]

Well there's probably hundreds of thousands if not more planetoids (Pluto) what size do you want to stop at? The sun's influence extends to the oort cloud, there could be monsters out there too

[@mcstud69]

The scientific method for determining that question used the Hill radius to gauge how many earth sized planets our particular sun could hold without their orbits causing havoc is 250.

[@timothyvanhoeck233]

The only way that would be possible is if it shared Earth's orbit, and even then gravitational perturbations would ensure it wouldn't stay hidden on the exact opposite side of our orbital plane for long.

[@MrBoo1963]

So, it's back! I heard about this 50 years ago, and then it went away. Another earth.

[@pac-manandtheorangeghost717]

Phaeton probably refers to the dwarf planet Ceres, which is in the asteroid belt

[@donmaloy42]

I thought we parked stationary satellites and cameras on the back side of the sun during one of our orbits around it years ago. We pay for it, but we don't get to see the pictures.

[@nathanhawee5373]

[@MemphiStig]

How do we know? We can see the sky and do the math. But what if all the planets in a given system had counter-weights?

[@crazysquirrel9425]

It is possible for a hidden planet to exist behind the sun. Would have to be in geosynchronous orbit relative to the sun and the Earth. I wonder if that is the planet X that ancients referred to?

[@melparrishjr]

Antikthon is in the wrong orbit. It should be in the same orbit relative to Earth but on the other side of the sun. They will never see each other! But you're right about them not being able to go undetected for long. In terms of galatic time where a Million years is like a minute, a few hundred years is pretty quick. When we explore the other planets in our system we might be able see it on the return trip if it's really out there!

[@pw4153]
