YOOOO THIS IS SO COOL!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I never knew such black holes could potentially exist, this is so interesting!

My Contribution To The Tumblr System!! He’s Not Technically A Blanet, But He Orbits The Same Stellar

My contribution to the Tumblr System!! He’s not technically a blanet, but he orbits the same stellar black hole and plays a similar role in the system to a blanet… maybe he’d be considered an unofficial blanet? Idk man... Idea from @finligz and @just-call-mefr1es!!!! Lots of extra yapping under the cut

So we all know planet X right? There's a theory that instead of being caused by a planet, the gravitational anomalies we've detected that led us to believe there may be a 9th planet could also be caused by a very small black hole! This idea was spawned from that. A primordial black hole is essentially a black hole formed at the very beginning of the universe, less than a second after the big bang. They are currently only hypothetical as detecting something so small thats also basically invisible is understandably very difficult. Having formed at the beginning of the universe, he wasn't always a part of the Tumblr system. He spent a good 10 billion years just hurtling though space before he accidentally got a little too close to the Tumblr Black hole and got caught in it's gravity. Whoopsies. He also may or may not have killed 2 blanets (I've dubbed them Lethe and Coeus) when he joined the system. And nobody knows it was him, or that he even exists, because it just looks like those blanets slowly shrunk and disappeared. Whoopsies x2. I put "yesn't" for the moons because while he does have natural satellites, he isn't technically a blanet, and only blanets/planets can have moons. More than 40 asteroid sized objects, along with two larger objects, orbit him. These objects consider themselves moons despite not technically being such. The two larger and colored "moons" are what remains of Lethe and Coeus. If they were to scale, they'd be multiple magnitudes larger than him, probably around the size of a moon like Mimas or Proteus. The symbol he "stole" is just Coeus and Lethe's symbols mashed together.

Nu is the greek god of everything prior to primordial chaos, aka nothingness. Lethe is the greek personification of forgetfulness, and Coeus is a greek figure representing inquisitiveness. All his "moons" hate his ass. Two of them are basically ghosts of blanets he literally killed, and the rest of them were once independent asteroids. So basically, none of his "moons" formed naturally, and all of them are doomed to die a slow death via tiny spaghettification. They are understandably NOT HAPPY.

Despite being roughly watermelon-sized, he has a mass equivalent to like. At least 5 Jupiters. Crazy bro. The aphelion of his orbit is basically as far as you can get from Tumblr without drifting off into space. His perihelion is considerably closer, but is likely still hundreds of times further out than the last blanet. Eccentric orbit moment. Having been captured rather than formed in the Tumblr system, he orbits in a very different plane than the rest of the gang. Since he was born at the beginning of the universe, he's incredibly wise. Unfortunately, he's also kind of comically evil, and will probably never share that wisdom with you. I could yap even more, I've thought up so much lore + thought a bunch about how this entire stellar black hole system would scientifically work, but I'll save it for another time. (or you can ask about it!!!) If you made it all the way to the bottom of my yapping, thanks for reading!!
