It's not orbiting around the Sun either, as it is completely motionless. The Sun's gravity should be pulling it in, but something is preventing that. It's been sitting there for weeks. NASA is being vague about it. They say it's there, but they don't know what it is. It's massive too, bigger than the Earth - MUCH bigger.
Probably something to do with the camera. I have my doubts.
Off to Google, I go....
Most of the info on this is pure speculation, not supported by any data. An object that size would have a measureable gravitational effect, whether it was natural or "alien." Mass is mass. Too much Star Trek for someone out there...
what are you some kind of middle school science teacher?!?
Fly $#iT on the lens.
Does an object have mass if it is unaffected by gravity?
Yes, mass is completely unrelated to gravity.Quote:

I don't see it.

Basically, everything in the Universe i seither matter or energy. Matter, by definition, is something that has mass and takes-up space.
The Law of Universal Gravitation states that all mass has gravitational force, and acts-upon/is acted-upon by all other matter in the Universe. The strength of anobjects gravity is related to its total mass, so most objects' gravity is comparatively weak and goes unnoticed, but it is still there.
Put two pencils in a void with no outside forces (kinda like mass-less ropes and friction-less pulleys), and their respective gravities will pull them together.
So...a planet-sized object exerts a measurable gravitational force, even if its density is quite low, like Saturn or Neptune. It will cause a wobble in other objects' motion and it will affect light waves passing by.
This means that:
A) There is no planet-sized object hovering near the Sun, or
B) A planet-sized object is hovering near our Sun that is either nearly-massless or has the ability to defy the laws of physics.
You be the judge.
I'm going with defying the laws of physics only because it would be interesting to see the science community's collective heads explode. ;)
Could it be a cloaked Klingon Battle Cruiser???
+1 with Rebel
Could it be someone talking on a cell phone?
I think a photophone would work much better close to the sun.Quote:

Or fly $#it.
Yes, no, maybe. :dumbass:
Don't get your hopes up, it could be a photoshop. NASA has probably been caught in the act before....

Picture on the left is of an "official" satellite image presented by NASA from the Cassini orbiter. Picture on the right is the same image with an increased brightness level.
I have a new supply of Tin Foil hats impregnated with Unobtanium to block the UFOs mind rays. I am the exclusive supplier and am selling them for the bargin basement price of $999.99 +TTL. Shipping is an extra $1000.00 because of restrictions on Unobtanium.

OK, now you have crossed a line. Unobtainium is 100% real. James Cameron said so.Quote:

Pft we all know it's a Romulan Warbird those sneaky bastages. A Klingon Battle Cruiser would already be in orbit beaming down troops and firing on our major cities.Quote:
