Are Scientists on the Verge of Locating the Sith Homeworld?

From the Daily Galaxy:

There could be at least two unknown planets hidden well beyond Pluto, whose gravitational influence determines the orbits and strange distribution of objects observed beyond Neptune. This has been revealed by numerical calculations made by researchers at the Complutense University of Madrid and the University of Cambridge. If confirmed, this hypothesis would revolutionise solar system models.

Ok, let’s back up a bit. Last March, scientists discovered a dwarf planet, 2012 VP-113, orbiting in a region in between the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud. There are only two objects in this inner-Oort cloud, the other being Sedna.

The orbits of 2012 VP-113, nicknamed Biden, and Sedna suggest, “the possible presence of a dark and icy super-Earth, up to ten times larger than our planet.” [emphasis mine]

I think we can theorize that this monster planet is in fact our galaxy’s Korriban, the home world of the Sith. We all know that the historical documentary series, Star Wars, takes place a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. What the documentaries (or mockumentaries, as Episodes I-III are known) never tell us is how far away and how long ago.

If the Force exists in our galaxy, and one presumes that Human Beings are not force-sensitive, then there must be both a light and a dark side. And so I posit that one of the dark super-Earths could very well be a version of Korriban, cut adrift from its home system, drifting past Earth.
