    Mercury's precession is because of GR, but if no GR what would planet Vulcan's orbit roughly be?

    I have known about why planet Vulcan was hypothesized in the 1840s for a while now, and a lot of the story behind the pointless searches for it and finally how General Relativity "killed" it. It is one of the best stories in all of astronomy...

I am not saying that Trump is not worthy of impeachment. I hope Mueller can crack open his taxes and...
