Tyche (hypothetical planet)

Tyche ( / ˈ t k i / ) is a hypothetical gas giant located in the Solar System 's Oort cloud , first proposed in 1999 by astrophysicists John Matese, Patrick Whitman and Daniel Whitmire of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette . [1] [2] They argued that evidence of Tyche's existence could be seen in a supposed bias in the points of origin for long-period comets . More recently, Matese [3] and Whitmire [4] re-evaluated the comet data and noted that Tyche, if it existed, would be detectable in the archive of data that was collected by NASA 's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) telescope. [5] In 2014, NASA announced that the WISE survey had ruled out any object with Tyche's characteristics, indicating that Tyche as hypothesized by Matese, Whitman, and Whitmire does not exist.
