American astronomers have suggested that once our sun was “fellow”, but because the solar system (SS) was a double star system, which is most characteristic of our galaxy. Such conclusions astrophysicists have done based on the analysis of radio waves, coming from a remote dust cloud that in the past supposedly the second star in our system.
The second star, dubbed Nemesis, revolves around Suns at a great distance – approximately 100 thousand astronomical units. It was not so easy to identify her, because she is very dull, dying. Perhaps only a trace remained of her however, in the distant past, Nemesis could exist substantially influence the SS, including being the culprit of all planetary cataclysms on earth.

US astrophysicists have published their findings in ScienceAlert, You can also read more about this on the arXiv.org resource. Astronomers prove that in our galaxy approximately half of the star systems with double luminaries are basically young entities that are only a few million years old. As aging, stellar systems are freed from their binary, which most likely happened with our SS, which in the distant past had a second star – Nemesis.
We have taken a step forward in understanding how stellar systems, says American astronomer Steven Stahler (Stephen Staler) UC Berkeley what role in binary formations play stellar evolution, and this is very important in forecasting plan for further development (change) of our The solar system, which obeys the common galactic the laws.
