The Search for Planet X

At the far - reaches of our solar system, a mysterious dark planet might be hiding. In 2015, astronomers thought a large, distant planet could account for the strange orbits of dwarf planets and other celestial objects. Since then, they've been searching the sky. In this exciting board game, The Search for Planet X, you become an astronomer. Use observations and logical thinking to hunt for this theoretical planet. Each game, the companion app randomly sets up the objects and the location of Planet X according to set rules. As Earth orbits the sun each round, use the app to scan the sky and attend virtual conferences. Mark down the info about object locations on your deduction sheets. As you learn where things are, start sharing theories to score points. As more objects are found, you can narrow down where Planet X might be. Once you think you know its spot and the objects nearby, use the app to search. The game ends when someone finds Planet X, and everyone gets a final chance to earn extra points. This game brings the excitement of discovery, the fun of astronomical puzzles, and the competitive spirit of science right to your table. Can you be the first to find Planet X?
