But in 1990 researchers say that these comets looked odd and the mass quantities of oddball comets led them to believe a Planet as big as Jupiter and they also found a faint glow of a planet using many telescopes in Chile Argentina.

asteroids are and their history. They even said that a comet called the Shoemaker-Levy 9 sped towards Jupiter at sixty kilometers a second. That is really fast!

Herschel, along with the help of many other scientists in his field, spent countless out hours and months studying the measurements, paths, and movements of this ‘comet’. In 1783, Herschel wrote to the Royal Society and said “it was not a lucky accident…
