Hello,   
      
   People on this planet earth have found asteroids circling around the sun in an   
   ecliptic orbit.   
      
   For this to happen there must be a counter-weight, at least according to   
   math/newton physics laws.   
      
   Now some believe that there must be a hidden planet that we have not found   
   yet, causing these ecliptic orbits.   
      
   However what if there is no planet ? What if an object was there but is now   
   gone ?   
      
   Possibilities:   
      
   1. It was a planet but got spong off and is lost in space.   
   2. It was a planet of another solar system that we almost collided with.   
   Though perhaps less likely cause it might have pulled much more out of orbit.   
   3. It could have been a gigantic spaceship that jumped into space, stayed   
   there for a while, got pissed at the dinosaurs eating one of them and then   
   decided to blow up the whole planet.   
      
   So one more time:   
      
   1. Spaceship visits our solar system.   
   2. Stays there for a while, long enough to pull asteroids into an ecliptic   
   orbit.   
   3. Something bad happens which makes them decide to blow up earth with a   
   projectile or maybe their visitation caused an asteroid to be pulled out of   
   regular/normal orbit and collided with earth (maybe later after they gone).   
   4. Spaceship jumps home.   
      
   And we are left with unexplained ecliptic asteroids.   
      
   Enjoy the sci-fi,   
     Bye for now,   
       Skybuck.
