The Mysterious Ninth Planet Between Mercury And The Sun That “Never Existed”
194Vulcan was a hypothetical planet located between Mercury and the Sun, which, although many recognized astronomers claimed it existed, was never seen by any telescope.
What happened to this planet, and why was it never found?
Let's find out!
Mercury is one of the closest planets to Earth, and records indicate that humanity has known its existence for hundreds of years. Still, during the eighteenth century, there was a problem with Mercury's orbit that astronomers could not explain.
To better understand this, you should know that the planets have several movements around the sun; the two best known are translation, the movement they make around the sun, and rotation, which they rotate on themselves.
