At the start of this year, a team of US researchers predicted the existence of a mysterious ninth planet.

The unknown world, dubbed ‘Planet Nine’, is thought to be 10 times more massive than Earth and the furthest planet from the sun – but its exact location is unknown.

Since then, researchers over the world have been using different instruments to hone in on the planet, in an effort that could lead to the planet being found before the end of the year.

Not only could it be ‘tugging’ on Nasa’s Cassini probe, a separate project called the Dark Energy Survey is coincidentally looking in exactly the right place to find the planet.
