Finding Venus in the daytime isn’t all that easy, and can be frustrating. If you can’t find it, don’t sweat it. But if you do, I think you’ll be amazed. I still remember the first time I did, when I was about 15.
Venus is very faint and difficult to locate with a telescope during daytime...;
i than think that a fainter and far more distant object such as planet X would be an impossible task for an amateur astronomer

Not only do you fall for a fraud, but you also think CW Leonis and a random star are unknown objects.
Elenin is nowhere near there, either.
11 15 39.9 +03 11 33
These are its current coordinates.
These are CW Leonis' coordinates:
09h 47m 57.38s
+13° 16′ 43.6″
Shocking.

NyxOne, the constellation Leo is a big area, how do you know that the video was shot of CW Leonis (9 47 47.41 + 13 16 43.56)? I didn't see where Astrolpatroit posted the location he was viewing. Until Astrolpatroit posts the location, so other people can check it out, I will question his video. That being said how can you say with such certainty, and condescending tones, that he is viewing CW Leonis?
.... only he calls it Vulcan....
Name of the star is listed as 40 Eridani A (Omicron2 Eridani A). There are three planets and an asteroid belt in the system. Planet I is class-B. In Star Charts this is also the classification of Mercury. Planet II, Vulcan, is class-M. Planet III, T'Khul, is class-G and has a moon.
Some nitwits claim that there is a planet with this outlandish orbit.
as you can see i did some research...i did a lot actually..
i only said that IMO it is impossible for amateur astronomer to detect a dwarf star if its only seen during daytime..NOT BEHIND THE SUN!!!! so.. i will check if an object can be visible only during daytime..whilst at night time it will be only visible from the north or south pole
i still say you cant find a dwarf star during the day from earth..ok..fullstop
still i confirm ...you cant see a dwarf star with a telescope from earth during daytime

When was that book written?
28 years ago.
And how much did we know about the solar system then compared to now?
The United States Government owns the patient of near to light travel.
One light-year is equal to:
about 5,878,625,373,183.608 miles (about 6 trillion miles)
Do me the Math on 4 years trip to 3 Billion miles away.
Now this was in the newspaper in Arkansas, and in the New York Times. Why would it be going there that far to investigate a Brown Dwarf Planet.
