Sun might have a 'long lost twin'; study explains traces of binary system

A recent study has revealed that our home star, Sun, may have a twin star. This study was reported by TNW, and observations came out when few astromers from Astrophysics predicted that presence Planet 9 which is popularly kwn as Planet X could have been a part of ar star system. se findings t only present new questions but it also brings forward a different mystery that has to be solved to find truth about existence of world.

Sun may have formed with a twin star 

According to Astrophysics recent study, astromers have been thinking about possibility of a massive unkwn planet beyond Oort Clouds of our Solar System. observations also speak that Oort clouds which exist beyond Kuiper Belt where icy objects exist including dwarf planet Pluto are home to short-period comets. se comets, once every 200 years (approximately), complete ir journey (orbit) in inner solar system.

According to NASA, “ Oort Cloud is believed to be a giant spherical shell surrounding rest of solar system. It is like a big, thick-walled bubble made of icy pieces of debris sizes of mountains and sometimes larger. Oort Cloud might contain billions, or even trillions, of objects".

As per several studies and observations made by numerous astronauts over period of time, many stars in universe are born in a binary solar system. This is what triggers hyposis that our Sun might too have been born with a long lost twin. Researcher in Astrophysical Journal Letters wrote that: “Here, we consider a temporary binary companion to Sun that could have existed only in solar birth cluster, and explore plausibility and implications of such a possibility for both formation of [outer Oort Cloud] and capture of Planet Nine.”

Dr Avi Loeb of Harvard University explained phemen of binary model of stellar formation in his recent statement. He revealed that "binary systems are far more efficient at capturing objects than are single stars". This is why one can also assume that Sun was once a part of a binary system looking at concentration of material scattered from within Solar System. Dr Loeb also mentioned that "If Oort cloud formed as observed, it would imply that Sun did, in fact, have a companion of similar mass that was lost before Sun left its birth cluster”.

However, entire hyposis is based on idea that re might be a presence of an unseen world orbiting far from Sun beyond Oort Cloud. If this hyposis is someday proven to be true, n it would directly point out that our Sun was once a part of a Binary System to which it has lost its twin. Neverless, with current techlogy with human race, it seems impossible to find out evidence regarding this, but in future, we must kw if Sun ever had a long lost twin.
