This theory postulates that our solar system was formed with the aid of a solar companion star which was named Vulcan by the ancients. A dark body which could be Vulcan has been detected by the IRAS satellite. The IRAS measurements and data from other sources have been utilized to determine an orbit and mass for Vulcan. Vulcan is ...
